Weekend Marriages Made Easy in California – Get Legally Married Same Day!
For many couples, weekends are the perfect time to celebrate love. But if you’ve ever tried to get legally married in California on a Saturday or Sunday, you’ve probably discovered that most courthouses and county clerk offices are closed. Fortunately, with GetMarried.Today, you don’t have to wait until Monday. We provide same-day marriage license issuance and officiant services, even on weekends—so you can get legally married fast, without setting foot in a government building.
Our mission is simple: make the legal marriage process easy, accessible, and available 24/7, including Saturdays and Sundays. Whether you’re planning a last-minute elopement, need to meet an immigration deadline, or want a quiet and private ceremony, we’ll issue your California Confidential Marriage License and legally officiate your marriage—wherever you are in Southern California.
Many couples assume they must wait for the county clerk to open to obtain a license or book a ceremony. But GetMarried.Today is authorized by the state to issue valid marriage licenses and perform legally recognized weddings without court involvement. We offer mobile and in-office options throughout Orange County, Los Angeles, San Diego, Riverside, and San Bernardino.
Whether you want a simple backyard ceremony, a sunset beach wedding, or a cozy elopement at an Airbnb or hotel, we come to you. Our weekend weddings are completely legal, confidential, and stress-free. There’s no waiting period, no witness required, and no need to visit the courthouse. You simply book your appointment, present valid ID, and we take care of the rest.
If you’ve never heard of a California Confidential Marriage License, you’re not alone. This special license allows couples to skip the courthouse entirely and maintain privacy since it is not part of the public record. It’s perfect for couples seeking discretion, elopements, or last-minute ceremonies. Learn how it works here.
Many of our weekend clients are couples facing urgent timelines. Some are military families needing to get married before deployment. Others are planning marriage-based green card applications or adjustment of status. Others simply want to elope now and plan a symbolic wedding celebration later. We’re proud to support them all—and we specialize in fast, legal marriage solutions that work around your schedule.
If you’re wondering what you’ll need to bring, it’s simple. All you need is a valid government-issued photo ID, be at least 18 years old, and be legally single. Even if one or both parties don’t have an ID on hand, we may still be able to help you get legally married without an ID—our team will guide you through the documentation process.
Every marriage we officiate includes full legal filing of your marriage license with the appropriate county clerk’s office. After the ceremony, we handle the paperwork so you can relax and enjoy your weekend as newlyweds. If you need certified copies, name change assistance, or apostille certification for international use, we’ll provide that too.
Weekend marriages also work beautifully for couples looking to get married at scenic outdoor locations, including Huntington Beach, Laguna Beach, Joshua Tree, Griffith Park, or Downtown Los Angeles rooftops. We travel to you and bring the license, the officiant, and everything you need to walk away as a legally married couple.

We’re available every weekend—and yes, that includes holidays, Sundays, and even evenings. Whether you book at the last minute or weeks in advance, our flexible team will meet you where you are to make your marriage official and memorable.
Don’t wait for Monday—get married this weekend.
