Answer

Hi Marc!

It’s nice to hear from you and congratulations about the new house! I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble getting a copy of your marriage license in TN. I can imagine that this is very frustrating – especially with the excitement (and stress) that comes along with buying a house.

Have you tried the TN Office of Vital Records? It looks like they have an in person or mail in option as well as a referral to an online service.
