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.

To elope you will need to get a marriage
license at the county clerk's office ($42.00). There is a 72 hour
waiting period (they put

void under Texas law.
