The $76 fee includes one certified copy of the marriage certificate, mailed to you once the signed license is returned for recording.

The marriage license fee is paid directly to the county at the time of application — not to Elopements Inc. Both partners must apply for the license in person at the county clerk's office; we cannot obtain the license on your behalf. We walk every couple through the process step by step (where to apply, what to bring, when to go), but the application itself has to be completed by the two of you.

What is the best time of year to elope in Savannah?
