How does the notary public issue the California marriage license?
Richard purchases the Confidential California Marriage License from the Los Angeles Registart-Recorder County Clerks office and, in turn, issue the license to the couple. Richard will bring his typewriter to the bride and groom to complete the marriage license process. What is the difference between the confidential license and regular license? One is public record and one is a private record. California vital records are public information. This means that information on the regular marriage license can be obtained by any interested party. The confidential license is a private vital record that can only be obtained by the bride and groom. A confidential license prevents any interested party from obtaining information on your marriage license which includes your mother s maiden name, bride and grooms home address, birthdate, occupation etc.
