PLANNING CHECKLIST Getting hitched is pretty easy in Nevada. There are no blood tests, no waiting periods, and anyone 18 or older is welcome.

Check with the appropriate county clerk’s office for license requirements.

Both parties need to appear in person to get the license.

Licenses cost $85 in Washoe County (Reno) and $102 in Clark County (Las Vegas).

If you are divorced or annulled, be sure you have the date and location of the legalized end.
