Does a minimony wedding that celebrates your love with your partner (without the expensive price tag of a traditional wedding) sound like a dream to you? Exchanging your nuptials at your local courthouse or city hall may be right up your alley! Plus, courthouse wedding dresses are such a dream!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have your marriage license, you can head over to your local courthouse and schedule your wedding day and time! Some allow walk-ins, but we recommend calling or scheduling in person ahead of time! And keep in mind that there is usually a waiting period between getting your marriage license and the actual ceremony!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the day of your appointment, head to the courthouse or city hall. Bring your marriage license, any witnesses, whatever identification is required, and be prepared to pay any additional fees. And then your ceremony will begin! They&#8217;re typically pretty short, around 15-30 minutes. Your ceremony will be performed by either a judge, justice of the peace, or court clerk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"456\" data-id=\"52850\" src=\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/melody-ayres-griffiths-gW4y6IPZV2A-unsplash-700x456.jpg\" alt=\"Courthouses Wedding Venue\" class=\"wp-image-52850\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/melody-ayres-griffiths-gW4y6IPZV2A-unsplash-700x456.jpg 700w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/melody-ayres-griffiths-gW4y6IPZV2A-unsplash-250x163.jpg 250w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/melody-ayres-griffiths-gW4y6IPZV2A-unsplash-768x500.jpg 768w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/melody-ayres-griffiths-gW4y6IPZV2A-unsplash-1536x1000.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/melody-ayres-griffiths-gW4y6IPZV2A-unsplash-2048x1333.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/melody-ayres-griffiths-gW4y6IPZV2A-unsplash-120x78.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">PC: Melody Ayres Griffiths<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-do-brides-wear-to-a-courthouse-wedding-are-courthouse-wedding-dresses-a-thing\"><strong>What Do Brides Wear To A Courthouse Wedding?

Honestly, I initially swiped right on him because he had a picture of his dog, Nugget, in his profile and I just couldn\u2019t say no to getting to know him, and by him I mean Nugget. All jokes aside, we immediately hit it off and I could tell from our first conversation how genuine he was.

Can you take us on a little trip down memory lane?<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I love our story! Our proposal had some layers of trickery in it. So for over a decade, Stan\u2019s friends throw him a surprise birthday party every year because he hates celebrating himself but they love celebrating him\u2026while making him squirm a little. I\u2019ve known of this since the beginning because our first date was actually the day before his birthday so I saw this happen immediately after we started dating. Stan used this to his advantage and had his friends \u201cinclude\u201d me in planning his upcoming surprise party. Here I thought I was tricking him into a surprise dinner in San Francisco at a restaurant he always wanted to eat at, but on the way to dinner, his friends were texting me to stall because they weren\u2019t ready yet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They asked me to kill some time by taking him on a walk down Pier 7 which was close to the restaurant. As we walked down the pier together, he stopped halfway down and proposed. He was so nervous he completely forgot his speech and finally blurted out that he loved me and wanted to marry me! He also hired a photographer who secretly captured that moment followed by a quick photo shoot. Afterwards, he told me he made dinner reservations at La Mar right next door which is where we had our first date so we could celebrate our love full circle. What I didn\u2019t realize is that he had flown up my parents and little sister and had them and our close friends waiting for us at dinner to celebrate our engagement. I cried immediately when I saw my family and couldn\u2019t have asked for a better moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-from-what-we-understand-you-got-married-at-san-francisco-city-hall-in-one-of-our-courthouse-wedding-dresses-before-your-destination-wedding-in-the-philippines-what-inspired-that-decision\"><strong><em>From what we understand, you got married at San Francisco City Hall in one of our courthouse wedding dresses before your destination wedding in the Philippines.

I absolutely fell in love with its aesthetics and history but also saw it as a chance to do a small ceremony with my two closest friends there to witness it. This took some pressure off from our actual wedding ceremony in the Philippines because we had already quietly married and could focus on just having fun with our family and friends in Cebu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"1050\" data-id=\"56932\" src=\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-43-700x1050.jpg\" alt=\"Louie wearing courthouse wedding dress Bailey by Sottero and Midgley\" class=\"wp-image-56932\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-43-700x1050.jpg 700w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-43-250x375.jpg 250w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-43-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-43-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-43-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-43-120x180.jpg 120w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-43-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"1050\" data-id=\"56931\" src=\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-41-700x1050.jpg\" alt=\"Louie wearing courthouse wedding dress Bailey by Sottero and Midgley\" class=\"wp-image-56931\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-41-700x1050.jpg 700w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-41-250x375.jpg 250w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-41-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-41-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-41-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-41-120x180.jpg 120w, https:\/\/maggieblogassets.sfo2.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Louie-Angeles_Bajo-el-Sol-Photography_HiRes-Sneak-Peeks-41-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-did-having-a-courthouse-and-then-a-destination-wedding-impact-your-approach-to-wedding-planning\"><strong><em>How did having a courthouse and then a destination wedding impact your approach to wedding planning?<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It didn\u2019t impact us greatly as we saw them as two separate events and the city hall wedding was so simple and easy to plan that it didn\u2019t pull our attention too much from planning our destination wedding.
