WAYNE COUNTY, Mich. – Couples have said getting an appointment to get a marriage license is almost impossible and a marriage license is only valid for 30 days after it gets issued.
It’s a growing problem in Wayne County and a member of the Local 4 family was concerned he may not obtain the necessary license before his big day.
In Michigan, you have 30 days to get a license from your actual wedding date, but in Wayne County, many have said they can’t get appointments for months.
