After over 10 years
of officiating weddings at the courthouse, I stopped. Put simply, getting married at the courthouse is a rotten experience.
Sitting in the
hallway with lawyers and probations - possibly for hours - is neither fast
nor romantic. Courthouse weddings also are not cheap.
Marriages
that start at the courthouse -
end at the courthouse.
The divorce rate
for courthouse marriages is over 80%. More than 4 out of 5 marriages that
start at the courthouse will end at the courthouse. The courthouse
is where you go for a divorce, not
a marriage.
How long will a courthouse ceremony take? It depends on when the judge has time to see you. That might be minutes, hours, or "come back tomorrow."
Candidly, many couples go to the courthouse wanting a fast, cheap, and easy marriage ceremony. But that probably is not what really will happen. Nor is getting married to be treated like a dentist appointment. Getting married can be fast, easy, cheap - romantic & fun.
For less cost, time and effort, you can have an elopement without dressing up or fuss - BUT that also is romantic. easy, cheap and memorable.

put the date and time on the license. Any marriage within 72 hours is void
under Texas law.
