Get your license

Get married by a Justice of the Peace
Tarrant County's Justice of the Peace courts set their own wedding rules. Two examples:
- Justice of the Peace 3: $220, cash only. Ceremonies Monday, Wednesday and Friday after 1:00 p.m., business hours only. Book about two weeks ahead, after you have your license. Up to 30 people, counting children and photographers. See listing
- Justice of the Peace 7 (Mansfield): $200, cash only, during business hours. Evenings and weekends cost more. Send the court's wedding form and the office confirms within 24 to 48 hours. See listing
Courts 1, 2, 4 and 8 also post wedding information on the county website. Confirm the courtroom address before you go.
