LAMAR COUNTY, Ala. (WCBI) – Some objections to signing marriage licenses for same-sex couples led to a change in Alabama law this past legislative session.

The new law goes into effect this Thursday.

Alabama has done away with the traditional process of getting a marriage license.

It’s safe to say some folks won’t be needing a white dress or tux – all you need is a pen and paper.

In the state of Alabama, there’s a new law for couples who want to come together in holy matrimony.
