The Disadvantages of Courthouse Weddings
If you’re still considering getting married at the county courthouse or clerk’s office, here are a few reasons why couples are choosing Get Married Today instead:
1. Courthouse Weddings Are Rushed & Impersonal
🏛 Courthouse ceremonies are often limited to just a few minutes, and couples rarely have the opportunity to personalize their vows or ceremony style.
2. Government Offices Have Limited Hours
⏳ Courthouses and county clerk offices only operate during standard business hours, making it difficult for couples with busy schedules to find a convenient time.
3. Marriage License Wait Times Can Be Long
📜 County clerk offices often require appointments in advance—sometimes weeks or months ahead! Learn about typical county office wait times at L.A. County Registrar-Recorder.
4. Crowded & Unromantic Setting
💑 A courthouse wedding often lacks the personal and romantic touch that couples want on their special day.
🚀 Ditch the courthouse and get married in a way that’s fast, stress-free, and meaningful!
