Regardless of whether you’re a non-resident or non-citizen, you can get a license as long as minimum requirements and qualifications are met. Note that the license stays valid fro 30 days only.
If you are aiming for a scenic vineyard wedding, Maple Grove Farm and Cogan’s Farm are locations you can consider. Meanwhile, The Magnolia Venue is for couples who want to take advantage of the state’s panoramic mountain backdrop. No matter where you tie the knot, you will enjoy stunning views.
