It depend on you situation, If you can prove to a court that getting married is the best thing for you then you probably don�t need your parents at all, but if you just want to get married at sixteen then you only need a parent who is a Legal guardian.
It depends on the state. Many states require the signature of both parents if they have equal custody.
If your parents are divorced then only 1 parent has to sign. My mom signed for me when I was 16 and me and my hubby are happily married!
If parents share joint custodial rights then both parents must give permission for a minor to marry.
If parents are married and one objects the minor cannot marry.
