Marriage Record Contents
Marriage records are actually the culmination of three important components on the same document: the marriage application, the marriage license, and the Certificate of Marriage. The actual document will vary from state to state, as each state has jurisdiction over what should be included. Core information will remain the same: the full name of the groom, the full name of the bride, their respective addresses, their respective birth dates (or ages), the date of the ceremony, and the place where the ceremony is taking place.
