Couples wishing to be married in Ontario must complete an application form signed by both individuals getting married. The bride and/or groom must submit the application with the supporting documents listed below in person to the Licensing Office at Vaughan City Hall at 2141 Major Mackenzie Drive, Maple. The marriage license will be issued the same day providing all documentation is complete.

If you were divorced in Canada, you must bring the original or court-certified copy of the final decree, (if issued before January 1, 1987) or a certificate of divorce to your local municipal office when you are purchasing the marriage licence.
