There are a number of differences. A regular marriage license is a public record. A license and certificate of confidential marriage is only accessible by a spouse or by decree signed by a superior court judge. At least one witness is required to observe the solemnization for a regular, public ceremony.
A common-law marriage is a legally recognized marriage between two people who havent purchased a marriage license or engaged in a ceremony overseen by an officiant. Nine states and the District of Columbia recognize common-law marriages.
Always the trendsetter, California is the only state in the union that offers confidential marriage licenses. Confidential marriage was originally setup in 1878 for couples who lived in remote, rural areas with no access to a church or courthouse.
