In Massachusetts the fees for a marriage license are set by each town. It costs $50 to get married in Boston but only $15 in Wenham. Are there any cheaper cities or towns in the Commonwealth?

Hmmm, I was going to suggest just live together long enough and have a "free" Common Law marriage. However, MA, does not have/recognize common law marriage.

Do any towns in Mass have a bogo deal on marriage licenses? I was thinking of giving bigamy a try.
