Cedar Hill State Park and the Mesquite venues sit in Dallas County. The application must be completed online first; the clerk issues an order number that is used to book the in person appointment where both applicants sign and the license is issued. The license expires on the 90th day after issuance and the Twogether in Texas certificate both cuts the fee by $60 and waives the 72 hour waiting period.
