How Many Times Can You Legally Marry in Texas?
Texas does have laws about marriage on the books. One of those laws is that you cannot be married to more than one person, more than one person in another state, or more than one person in another country. So, no Sister Wives or Brother Husbands.
But How Many Times Can You Legally Marry in Texas?
Texas does recognize common law marriage. This is where a couple agrees to be married, lives together as a married couple, and tells people they are married. There is a Declaration of Informal Marriage that must be submitted to the county clerk where they live to be recognized.
Legal Age to Be Married
You must be at least 18 years old to get married in Texas. However, there is a court order that can remove “the disabilities of minority of the party for general purposes” that could allow for someone to marry another person under the age of 18 (thelarsonlawoffice.com).
But is there a legal limit to the number of times you can get married in Texas? The answer to that question is, NO. You can get married as many times as you want. I wouldn't suggest it but if it floats your boat.
