San Diego Courthouse Wedding Guide
Helping you plan a meaningful day that makes your vows as unforgettable as the city itself!
I’m constantly inspired by the incredible variety of locations the city offers. From the rugged cliffs of Torrey Pines or La Jolla to the historic corners of Balboa Park, every couple has the chance to reflect their unique story against stunning backdrops—whether it’s the beach at sunset or an urban crawl. The beauty of this city is that no matter where we shoot, the natural light and breathtaking scenery elevate every moment, making your San Diego Courthouse Elopement a truly perfect and memorable day.

A quick 3 step guide to plan your San Diego Courthouse wedding
Schedule your San Diego Courthouse Wedding appointment online
You can start by easily registering for a marriage license and schedule your Wedding Ceremony right online HERE Don’t forget to arrive at least 20 minutes early on the day of your appointment. The San Diego Courthouse has several locations where the short ceremony can be held, and I recommend the front courtyard plaza or the small garden in the back!
Let the fun begin!
Go try on some dresses / suits and get excited! Don’t let your San Diego Courthouse wedding just be a box you check, make a fun day out of it. You can schedule your Courthouse Wedding Ceremony up to seven weeks out, so this gives you plenty of time to maybe schedule in a nice brunch or fancy dinner on the special day.
