Minnesota County Marriage License Offices

Minnesota has 87 counties, and each one has its own office that issues marriage licenses and holds marriage records. The county where the license was applied for is the official custodian of that record, regardless of where the ceremony took place. Some counties use the county recorder's office, while others route marriage licenses through an auditor-treasurer or license center. Most counties participate in the statewide Minnesota Official Marriage System at moms.mn.gov, where you can search records and request certified copies.
