$50.00marriage license · set by state law

Or pay $5.00 — a premarital course takes $50.00 down to $5.00

Oklahoma law charges $5.00 instead of $50.00 if you hand the clerk a certificate showing you both completed a premarital counseling program (28 O.S. § 31; 43 O.S. § 5.1). The program must run at least four hours and be given by a licensed health professional (a psychiatrist, psychologist, licensed social worker with marriage-counseling experience, marriage and family therapist, or professional counselor), an official representative of a religious institution, or someone trained to teach a nationally recognized marriage-education curriculum such as PREP. The provider signs the certificate.

Both of you apply in person. The application is signed and sworn to by both parties before the Court Clerk (43 O.S. § 5(A)), who is the clerk of the district court, not the County Clerk. Bring proof of your name and age: the statute names a certified birth certificate, a current driver license or ID card, a current passport or visa, or another government-issued document accepted as proof of identity and age.

How long it lasts, and where you can use it
The license is valid for 30 days, and the ceremony must take place within 30 days of the date it is issued; the completed license and certificate go back to the Court Clerk for recording within the same 30 days (43 O.S. § 20(A)). It can be used in any Oklahoma county (43 O.S. § 5(D)), not just Dewey County.
If a judge marries you
Add $10.00: when a judge performs the ceremony, the court clerk of the county where it happens collects it on top of the license fee, and no judge may perform the ceremony without proof it was paid (28 O.S. § 56).
