After a Las Vegas wedding ceremony, the officiant who performed the ceremony completes the marriage certificate and is legally responsible for delivering it to the Clark County Clerk’s Office within the required filing window.
The marriage license allows you to get married. The marriage certificate is the proof that the ceremony was performed and recorded. After the certificate is received and recorded by the Clerk’s Office, couples can order certified copies for legal, personal, name-change, travel, or international document needs.
