Does the chapel submit the license to the county to make it legal or is that the responsibility of the newlyweds?

The county takes care of. You get a copy and then you lose it.

The county takes care of it once you sign, you are legally married. Congratulations!

as far as I know, the chapel is meant to mail it to the Clerk Registrar's office (I think i spelled that right), that is why they don't give the license back to you after it is signed.
if they did give it back to you after it was signed, i'd go ahead and mail it in. at my wedding, the guy gave it back to us and we mailed it in ourselves along with a self addressed stamped envelope (even though there was a paper in the packet of info we handed to him which told the guy he was meant to do it). i believe the Clerk Registrar then kept the original document and we got an official copy of it on a different type of paper, in the mail in the envelope we provided to them.

The county gets a copy and you get a copy.
