Can a parent annul a minor's marriage if it was given under the other parent's consent?

My fiancee is under the age of eighteen, so her mother is providing the parental consent for the marriage license. Her father, who lives out of state, objects to the marriage. Can he fly to Las Vegas and apply to have the marriage annuled?Can a parent annul a minor's marriage if it was given under the other parent's consent?
Does the father have joint custody? If so, the mother does not have the legal right to give consent...





A citizen cannot annul a marriage, but they can start the proceedings to have it annulled if they have legal right to.





She's not old enough to get married. Why would you risk the hassle? Why don't you wait until she's an adult and is granted the right to make her own decisions? You're marrying a child.Can a parent annul a minor's marriage if it was given under the other parent's consent?
No, in Nevada you only need ONE parent to give consent.
I don't think someone else can annul a marriage once it has happened.
If you two do not live in Nevada, I would be more worried about the Mann Act.
