Came here for a marriage license today. Was expecting to have a bad experience due to reading reviews from others. Chris was very helpful and made it a pleasant experience for my fiance and I.

This place is super good at keeping the records from the 1800’s and back! Friends with the clerk and came on a tour(which they don’t do normally, one reason why they are so nice),and this office knows the meaning of “conservation” very, very well! Thank you to Blanca Tuma, and all of the Clerk’s office staff!

Blanca & team are crazy good at what they do and Wise County is very blessed to have them. If you haven't seen the old deeds and the history, it is worth the trip.

We were so worried we were not going to be able to marry this Sunday, but we got our marriage license thanks to Faith at the counter. She provided a heartwarming smile and an effortless procedure of the license. Thank you!
