Dreaming of a magical wedding on Christmas Day, a romantic vow exchange on Valentine’s Day, or a festive celebration on New Year’s Eve? Good news — Get Married Today makes it possible! Whether you’re planning a spontaneous elopement or a meaningful micro-wedding, we offer same-day marriage license issuance and legally binding ceremonies every day of the year — including holidays. Yes, even December 25, December 31, and February 14.

In this blog, we’ll explain how you can legally get married on a holiday in Orange County, the benefits of choosing a holiday wedding, what to expect with our services, and how to book your last-minute or pre-planned holiday ceremony — all without stepping foot in a courthouse.


🎄 Holiday Love Is Real: Why People Choose Christmas, New Year’s, and Valentine’s Day

Love doesn’t take a break for the holidays, and neither do we. Here’s why these special days are becoming increasingly popular for legal weddings:

  • Christmas weddings offer warmth, family, and sentimentality — and many couples already have time off.
  • New Year’s Eve weddings symbolize new beginnings and are often followed by unforgettable parties.
  • Valentine’s Day weddings capture the romance of the season with a timeless love story vibe.

Get Married Today offers flexible, fast, and fully legal marriage services so your love story can begin — whenever you’re ready.

✅ Yes, It’s Legal — Even on Holidays

We are authorized by the County Clerk’s Office to issue legal California marriage licenses 365 days a year. That means you don’t need to wait until the government reopens after a long weekend.

We provide:

  • Marriage license issuance (we are Deputy Commissioners authorized by the County)
  • Legal officiation of civil or spiritual ceremonies
  • Notarized paperwork and apostille support if your marriage needs international recognition
  • Services in English and Spanish

This means you can get married legally in Orange County even if the courthouse is closed for:

  • Christmas Day (December 25)
  • New Year’s Eve / New Year’s Day
  • Valentine’s Day (February 14)
