Foreign residents: I recommend you get your license in Mariposa.  After the ceremony, we will take the license to the Mariposa Clerk to be recorded, so you can get a copy right away if you need to take it home with you, otherwise it can be mailed to you. You can use the certified copy to have your marriage registered at your local registrar's office. Some Countries require this; check with your local clerk to make sure that is all you need. If you get your license in any other County, it must be mailed to that County for recording.
