Tennessee HB0315 establishes the "Tennessee Covenant Marriage Act," effective July 1, 2025, which creates a distinct type of marriage requiring couples to undergo premarital counseling and commit to lifelong marriage. The bill affects couples intending to marry in Tennessee, stipulating specific requirements for entering into a covenant marriage, including a declaration of intent and grounds for divorce that are more restrictive than those for standard marriages. Key provisions include the necessity of counseling, the limited grounds for divorce, and the requirement for county clerks to document covenant marriages on marriage licenses.
