Rev. Mark W. Stolz


Serving as a non-denominational Christian minister in the Pearland area allows me the opportunity to reach out to those people that don't belong to a specific church. This includes those that have no use for "organized religion" and have no church at all.

If you can't decide which church to use or want a man of God instead of a Justice of the peace, or should a loved one pass on and you lack someone to officiate, I would be honored to perform these services for you.

How To get Your Marriage License.

The process to get your license is similar throughout Texas. The bride and groom can obtain their marriage license from any County Courthouse at the County Clerk's Office in the State of Texas.
Note: A few Counties require an affidavit from each applicant stating they are not delinquent in any court-ordered child support payments. Please call the County Clerk's office to see if this applies and for instructions on this process.
(Harris County does not require this affidavit.)

The Bride and Groom should go to the County Clerk's office to obtain their marriage license.

Brazoria and Harris County Clerk's office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The license is valid for 30 days from the date of issuance. There is a 72 hour waiting period. This waiting period cannot be waived unless:

An applicant is a member of the armed forces of the United States and is on active duty; or
An applicant obtains an order of a district court to waive the 72 hour waiting period.

****No blood tests or health certificates are needed****

The Bride and Groom will need:
A valid form of identification-a current driver's license from any state, a US passport or a certified copy of their birth certificate; A Social Security Number; and If either party was previously married, a divorce decree by either party must be final 30 days prior to the marriage taking place.

The Bride and Groom will need to give the license to the person who is officiating the ceremony who will sign and complete the license and return it to the County Clerk's office.
