Marriage License Guidelines
Pigeon Forge, Tennessee


If you would like to pre-apply online for a marriage license, order a duplicate or copy of your current or previous marriage license, or would just like to search historical marriage records, please visit the Sevier County Clerk's web site online.

If you are a Tennessee Resident, you will now pay $98.50 for a Marriage License. You may attend a 4 (four) hour premarital preperation course and present us the certificate of completion to waive the $60.00 fee accessed for not taking this course.

All Non-Tennessee Residents getting maried in Sevier County will pay $38.50. We have been fortunate to be categorized in a tourism zone that allows us to offer this special lowered rate.

If either you or your spouse has a Tennessee Drivers License you will be charged $98.50.
