However, due to the waiting period, the marriage license is not effective until a.m. on the second calendar day after the license is issued. Example: A marriage license issued at 3pm on May 14th. The parties may be married any time after 6am on May 16th.
Waiting Period: After application, the license, which is not effective until a.m. on the second calendar day, will be issued. (i.e. 48 hour waiting period) The license must be used within 6 months (you must marry within 6 months or the license will be void).
