What legal documents do we need for a Texas wedding?
You've just set a date for your wedding, this can be an exciting time for the two of you! Don't let the marriage license laws of Texas
put a dent in your wedding plans. Click HERE for what you need to know and what documents to bring with you before you apply
for a Texas marriage license. We recommend getting this legal aspect of your wedding out of the way about a month before your
wedding date.
Do you require a wedding coordinator?
No, we do not require an official wedding coordinator, although we do require that one person serve as the contact/decision maker
for event planning and execution. This helps ensure a smooth event and minimizes additional costs.
How much time in advance does a wedding need to be scheduled?
Depending on availability, we can arrange for an Elopement Package in as little as 24 hours. We need at least 7 days notice for
larger events, depending on availability. All weddings require payment and/or a deposit before dates are confirmed.

Yes. Please bring a CD and mark what you want to be played before and after the ceremony. Otherwise, we have selections, from
classic to contemporary wedding music.
Can we bring wine/champagne?
Yes. We do not have a liquor license; therefore we provide a sparkling non-alcoholic beverage toast for our wedding parties;
