Tarrant County & Dallas County both charge $71 (cash) for the license. And it looks like $31 for a "informal marriage." I would assume that means in the court house, but I don't know that for sure.

Texas Drinking laws with marriage license?
The law states that in order for you to be able to drink that you must be 21. If the establishment is caught serving you alcohol they could loose their liquor licenses, even if you bring your marriage licenses it doesn't not indicate that your 21 and able to drink. It just states that you got married and that is all. Even though your fiance worked where they allowed this to happen, they were doing some thing that was illegal for them to do. Since the legal drinking age was 21, they could have gotten into a lot of trouble. Hey, congratulations on your marriage to be. I wish you both all the happiness in the world that life can bring to two people.

In Texas can i a married legal age spouse buy alcohol for my minor husband at bars and licensed premises?
Yes you can at most places. I'm a Texan. My husband is a year younger than me, and last year when he was 20 and I was 21, we brought our marriage license and drivers licenses into a bar and he was able to drink(wow how desperate for alcohol). The only thing is they have to be in the same room with you at all times, just in case someone from the TABC comes in and checks ID's(the minor can't be without the older spouse 'supervising' them). Some corporate restauraunts(ex. olive garden,red lobster) wont allow it though just so they wont get stuck in the situation that I described and lose their liquor license...but most private owned restaraunts and bars will allow it!
