I am looking for someone to answer my question that has gotten married by a J.P. I am wanting to know if there is any other costs besides paying for the marriage license.

Often there is also a fee paid directly to the official. It depends on the local rules.

The city in which you plan to marry should have a municipal website that would answer that question. For instance, where I live, that stuff is done in Norwalk. I then can go to the Norwalk, CA City website and I can find out about fees for a marriage license, birth certificate, etc. For Norwalk, CA it is $70.00. I don't know how much yours would be.

I think you have to pay them as well (the Justice of the Peace).

Just make sure to tip the JP for his services as a sign of gratitude

Yes, you have to pay the JOP for officiating. Marriage isn't a freebie.

Some places offer a picture taken of the bride and groom. I am sure not all places do offer it you can check before you go.

They usually tell you the fee they expect. No tip is necessary.
