Getting Married at the "Court House"

We have all seen it in the movies the couple goes down to the court house and gets married the same day. Well here in Los Angeles County that is not possible. They will never be able to marry you the same day your purchase our license. You will have to come back at a later date to get married there.

If you purchase the license and want to get married the same day you will need to come to a minister that can marry you and process your marriage license.

This is not that complicated but you really need to make sure you go to a reputable place that will send in your license quickly and not make any mistakes.
Trust your wedding to us and we will handle the rest.
