Utah Marriage Records

To begin, add a marriage record or view a list of locations and resources for Utah marriage records.

Marriage records, no matter what state they originate from, can often be much harder to find than birth records. Thankfully, marriage records from states such as Utah are just as easy to find as most other vital records. That's because Utah marriage records have been maintained by the Office of Vital Records and Statistics since 1978. Of course, these marriage records aren't official copies of marriage records; they're short form certifications that give proof that a marriage happened.

Those seeking the original and official marriage records will need to contact the County Clerk who presides over the county in question. But for those who need certifications, the search really is pretty simple.

Requests can be sent through the mail to receive Utah marriage records, although this method can be time-consuming. If you happen to be looking for quicker results, one of the most popular methods of researching public records today is to use an internet public records search. These websites make it easier to search for information and decrease the wait involved at the same time.

To receive a marriage record fill out the Utah Marriage Certificate Mail-in Form. Mail your application to:

The Utah state office has Marriage information dating from 1978 to the present. You may order only short form certified Utah marriage certificates from the state office. The fee is $9.00. If you need an older copy, or a different form, you may apply to the County Clerk in the county where the marriage license was issued. For more information visit: Utah Department of Health
