Find a Marriage Record

The Metro Archives holds Nashville and Davidson County marriage records spanning from 1788 to February 2017. There are three indexes online which cover different time periods and are organized differently. If you cannot find a record online, we also have print indexes at Metro Archives for marriages between 1789 and 1863.
