Couples who select the marriage option on this website must meet all of the requirements of Hawaii law for being married. A marriage will not be registered and a marriage certificate will not be issued for a couple who does not meet the legal requirements for marriage in the State of Hawaii, even if a license is obtained or if a solemnization ceremony occurs. No refunds will be issued to couples who select this option in error and proceed through all of the steps, including payment. A marriage license is not valid for a civil union and cannot be exchanged for one.
