An Apology to Our Marriage License Applicants
We sincerely apologize to the couples who visited our Marriage License Department first thing Monday morning, 9/21/2026, and were unable to be served due to remodeling improvements taking place in our office. Our department began serving customers at approximately 8:45.
We understand that obtaining a marriage license is an important and exciting part of your wedding plans, and we regret the inconvenience and disappointment this unexpected disruption caused. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to improve our facilities and better serve our community.
Sincerely,
Judge Ralph Winkler and the Probate Court Staff
