Here's a step-by-step guide on how to get married in Mt. Airy.

01.

 

PREPARE FOR YOUR MARRIAGE LICENSE APPLICATION

 

Before you can say "I do," you'll need to secure a marriage license. Start by scheduling an appointment with the Surry County Register of Deeds office. Call them at (336) 401-8150 to book your slot.

COMPLETE THE ONLINE APPLICATION

 

Head over to the official Surry County website to fill out your marriage license application online. This step is crucial as it reduces the time you'll spend at the Register of Deeds office later.

Both you and your partner will need to bring several important items to your appointment:

  • Payment of $75.00 (debit and credit cards accepted)
  • Valid photo ID for each applicant (Driver’s license, State ID, Passport, or Military ID)
  • Certified birth certificates (if under 18)
  • Social Security numbers for both parties
  • Divorce decree (if applicable, with a translation if it's from a non-English speaking country)
  • Foreign birth certificates need to be translated into English and certified
  • Officiant's name and phone number

VISIT THE REGISTER OF DEEDS OFFICe

 

With your appointment set and documents in hand, both applicants must appear in person at the Register of Deeds office. This step finalizes your application process. Remember, if you find any mistakes in your online application, simply bring the corrections to the office—no need to reapply.

05.

 

FINALIZE YOUR APPLICATION

 

During your visit, the office staff will review your application, check for errors, and finalize the issuance of your marriage license. Remember, your license is valid for 60 days, so plan your ceremony within this timeframe!
