Marriages

Couples should make sure they meet all Provincial requirements for marriage in Ontario before applying. 

Couples who are getting married in Ontario need to download and complete a Marriage Licence Application. The completed application can be emailed to marriages@trenthills.ca 

After reviewing your application, staff will contact you to make an appointment to obtain your marriage licence.

When you visit the office, you will need to bring the following documentation:

• The original Marriage Licence Application, signed and dated by both the applicant and joint applicant  
• 2 pieces of government-issued identification for each partner. 1 piece of identification must include your photo.  Examples of government-issued identification:
• government-issued birth certificate, including any change of name certificates
• valid passport
• record of immigrant landing
• Canadian Citizenship Card
• valid driver's licence
• valid Ontario Photo card
• If either partner has been divorced within Canada, you will need to bring the original certificate of divorce to the office at the time of your appointment. A divorce order will not suffice. If the divorce was granted outside of Canada, a Foreign Divorce Authorization issued by the Office of the Registrar General will also be required. 
• The licensing fee of $125 as per our current Fees and Charges By-law, which can be paid by cash, cheque or debit

We encourage both the Applicant and Joint Applicant to attend the office together, however, if only one person can attend they will need the proper original documents for the absent person.
