There is no fee involved with getting married on the beach. You will be required to call City Hall and notify them of what beach (as in what block) the ceremony will be performed and what time. The gathering can only last for the time of the ceremony. You are not permitted to host your reception on the beach. Call City Hall at 410-289-8221 to notify them of your plans.

You'll need to get your Worcester county marriage license. You must get your license in the county you are being married in so you'll need to go to the Snow Hill Circuit court. Its about 25 minutes away from Ocean City. The fee is $35 cash (no checks or cc) and there are no blood tests required. You will need the following Items.

- Birth Certificate or Drivers License
- If you are a Divorces you will need your divorce papers
- If you are a Widow or Widower you will need the death certificate of your spouse.

Your certificate will be issues the same day, however you will need to wait 2 full calendar days before performing the service. The certificate is valid for 6 months.

Call the circuit court for more information. 410-632-5500
