What is required for a couple to enter into a covenant marriage?
A couple seeking to get married must first obtain a marriage license. (Sections 25-101 and 25-102 of the Arizona Revised Statutes indicate who may legally marry). To obtain a license, a written application must be filed with the Clerk of the Superior Court in any county of the state or with some justices of the peace, city clerks or town clerks. For obtain a covenant marriage, certain information must be included in the marriage license application. By law (Section 25-901 of the Arizona Revised Statutes) a person must state their intention to enter into a covenant marriage.
