Digest
SB 1956 allows couples to apply for and obtain a marriage license after a wedding ceremony has already taken place. Applicants must submit a post-ceremony marriage affidavit signed by the couple, two witnesses, and the officiant. The bill modifies the Family Code to permit post-ceremony marriage license applications, ensuring legal recognition of marriages that occurred without a prior license.
