Increases the marriage ceremony fee and the marriage license fee in the city of New York

This bill proposes to increase the fees charged for marriage services within the city of New York, directly affecting couples seeking to marry there. Under the new provisions, the cost for a city official to perform a marriage ceremony would rise to fifty-five dollars, and the fee for obtaining a marriage license would increase to sixty dollars. Applicants and contracting parties must pay these amounts before or at the time the service is provided, with the funds going to the city treasury. The legislation is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
