§ 13-b. Time within which marriage may be solemnized. A marriage shall
  not  be  solemnized  within  twenty-four hours after the issuance of the
  marriage license, unless authorized by an order of a court of record  as
  hereinafter  provided,  nor shall it be solemnized after sixty days from
  the date of the issuance  of  the  marriage  license  unless  authorized
  pursuant to section ten of the veterans' services law.  Every license to
  marry  hereafter  issued  by  a town or city clerk, in addition to other
  requirements specified by this chapter, must contain a statement of  the
  day  and  the hour the license is issued and the period during which the
  marriage may be solemnized. It shall  be  the  duty  of  the  clergyman,
  magistrate,  or  one-day  marriage officiant, as designated by a town or
  city clerk pursuant to section eleven-d of this article, performing  the
  marriage ceremony, or if the marriage is solemnized by written contract,
  of  the  judge  before whom the contract is acknowledged, to annex to or
  endorse upon the marriage license the date  and  hour  the  marriage  is
  solemnized. A judge or justice of the supreme court of this state or the
  county  judge of the county in which either party to be married resides,
  or the judge of the family court of such county, if it shall appear from
  an examination of the license and any  other  proofs  submitted  by  the
  parties  that  one  of the parties is in danger of imminent death, or by
  reason of other emergency public interest will be promoted  thereby,  or
  that  such delay will work irreparable injury or great hardship upon the
  contracting parties, or one of them, may, make an order authorizing  the
  immediate  solemnization of the marriage and upon filing such order with
  the clergyman, magistrate, or one-day marriage officiant performing  the
  marriage  ceremony,  or  if  the marriage is to be solemnized by written
  contract, with the judge before whom the contract is acknowledged,  such
  clergyman,  magistrate  or such one-day marriage officiant may solemnize
  such marriage, or such judge may take such acknowledgment  as  the  case
  may  be,  without waiting for such three day period and twenty-four hour
  period to elapse. The clergyman,  magistrate,  judge,  or  such  one-day
  marriage  officiant,  as  designated by a town or city clerk pursuant to
  section eleven-d of this article, must file such order with the town  or
  city clerk who issued the license within five days after the marriage is
  solemnized.  Such  town or city clerk must record and index the order in
  the book required to be kept by him or  her  for  recording  affidavits,
  statements,  consents and licenses, and when so recorded the order shall
  become a public record and  available  in  any  prosecution  under  this
  section.  A  person  who shall solemnize a marriage in violation of this
  section shall be guilty of a misdemeanor  and  upon  conviction  thereof
  shall  be  punished  by a fine of fifty dollars for each offense, and in
  addition thereto, his or her right to  solemnize  a  marriage  shall  be
  suspended for ninety days.
