Filing Marriage Returns The officiant performing the marriage ceremony must file the marriage return with the Marriage License Office which issued the license, within 10 days of the date of the ceremony.

The quickest way to get married in PA is to do a self uniting wedding (also called a quaker wedding). You can apply for it at city hall and get the license. You sign it, your partner signs it as well as two witnesses and then 3 days after getting the application you return it to city hall and boom, married.
