After a break of almost three years because of the COVID-19 pandemic, in-person wedding ceremonies have resumed at Alaska’s courthouses. (via AlaskaBeacon)

Hillary Sheehan and Joel Hughes are seen outside Juneau’s Dimond Courthouse on Friday, Feb. 3, 2023. In-person marriages are resuming at Alaska’s courthouses after the COVID-19 pandemic, and Sheehan and Hughes were among the first to take advantage. After a break of almost three years because of the COVID-19 pandemic, in-person wedding ceremonies have resumed at Alaska’s courthouses.

Before the pandemic, about one-third of Alaska’s courthouse marriages took place in Anchorage, where Judge Thomas Matthews serves on the Superior Court and is presiding judge for the state’s 3rd District, which covers Southcentral Alaska. Evidentiary hearings, jury trials and most court operations shut down at noon, clearing the schedule for other work.

That can be done in person, or the form, copies of picture IDs, and payment can be submitted by mail to either licensing office or to closest to where the wedding will take place. If you make a mistake while filling out the application, start with a fresh form. There are no extra steps for international visitors or noncitizens; if someone doesn’t have a Social Security number, they can leave that part of the form blank.

Once someone picks up the license, it’s valid for 90 days. If the wedding is later, postpone picking it up — it can wait at the office for up to a year and still be valid. Law clerks at courthouses are trained, certified commissioners, and at many courthouses, they’re the ones who do the Friday ceremonies.
