We live in C alifornia and my fiance & I want our wedding in Hawaii. Can our minister come with us and marry us there?
For a marriage to be legal, the officiating minister must be licensed by the state of Hawaii.

My fiance and I are from Belgium. Will our marriage be legal?
Yes. A legal wedding in Hawaii is recognized wherever an American marriage is. You may need an apostille stamp, which I can help with.

I'm in Honolulu on leave and the Navy is sending me to Okinawa next week. I need proof of our marriage really fast. Can this be done?
Yes. Arrangements can be made with the State Department of Health when the license is applied for to expedite delivery.

My fiance doesn't want a ceremony like everyone else's, and we want to say our own special words to each other. Can we do this?
The vows for each ceremony are tailored specificially for the couple being married. No two ceremonies are the same, and, yes, your own words to each other are welcome.

I read that a license is legal only in Hawaii. Does this mean our marriage won't be recognized in Pennsylvania?
This means that the license to be married can be used only in the state of Hawaii. Once the wedding is finalized, and the couple married, the marriage is recognized everywhere.

How soon after we get the license can we be married?
As soon as it can be arranged, within 30 days. There is no waiting period.

Where do we go for the blood test?
No blood test is required.
