In preparation for your Amoré Chapel wedding, we have prepared the following information to help answer some questions that are frequently asked by couples. Please read through the following guidelines and requirements for being married in Los Angeles County:

1. The legal age for marriage is 18 years old. Individuals under 18 must provide a Notarized Parent or Guardian Consent Statement and an order of the Superior Court granting the minor permission to marry.

2. A valid photo I.D. is required. Acceptable forms of I.D. include: U.S. driver's license or I.D. card, Mexico driver's license, U.S. passport, a foreign passport (stamped by INS), U.S. military I.D. card, or Canadian driver's license. If you only have a birth certificate and no photo I.D. card, two credible witnesses with appropriate I.D. will be required.

3. Residency and blood tests are not required.

4. If either the bride or groom has been previously married in the last two years, he or she must present Amoré with the divorce decree or death certificate. If over two years, we will need the specific divorce/death date.

5. A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to reserve a date and time at Amoré Chapel. The balance is due on the day of the wedding in cash, money order or credit card form. Checks are not accepted for final payment.

6. We issue confidential marriage licenses. We will mail your license to the Registrar-Recorder's office on your behalf to be recorded. Approximately four weeks after your wedding you will need to request a certified copy of your license directly from the Registrar-Recorder's office. We will provide instruction on how to obtain your copy. Rush processing is available for an additional fee. Please ask an associate for details!
