Answer:
“The marriage or civil union license shall be issued by the licensing officer in the municipality in which either party resides or, if neither party is a resident of the State, in the municipality in which the proposed marriage or civil union is to be performed.”
Here, since both of you are non-residents of New Jersey, in order to get your marriage license, you can approach the licensing officer in Livingston as you are planning to solemnize the marriage in Livingston.
