When it comes to planning an Antigua Wedding there are certain things that the couple needs to take into consideration in order to ensure that everything goes as smoothly as possible for them. They need to look closely at the marriage license laws for this Caribbean Island to ensure that they meet the requirements and to prevent any mishaps before the big day takes place.

However many couples who stay in Antigua will arrange with the resort that they are staying at to help them plan the big day and ensure that everything runs smoothly. This then makes live a little less stressful for them before they big day arrives. Some of the more all inclusive resorts in Antigua often employ a wedding co-ordinate who will ensure that everything is arranged in some cases prior to the arrival of the couple. They can help to make sure that all the necessary licenses have been secured and help to arrange the events on your wedding day.

The cost of an Antigua Marriage License is $240 and this covers the marriage license along with the marriage officer charges and the fees that are required to register the marriage. In order to obtain such a license the couple will need to provide the following forms of identification.

1. Legal Identification such as Passport or Drivers License or State issued identification or a birth certificate.

2. If you have been married previously they will now need proof that you are divorced or a copy of the original partner death certificate (which can either be the original or a certified copy).

As well as the above documentation the couple will also need to arrange to have 2 witnesses present for the wedding and if they are under the age of 18 they will need to have written authority from their parents or guardians that this wedding is acceptable to take place.
