Courthouse Wedding | Justice of the Peace | St Louis

Posted on September 17, 2013 by admin

Courthouse Wedding or Justice of the Peace?

Thinking of a courthouse wedding or Justice of the peace wedding? There are many reasons to consider this option. “Spontaneous – Simple – Quick – Inexpensive” to name a few. Couples have been choosing to have a courthouse wedding for many reasons for many years. However the truth is a courthouse wedding can be a rotten experience. Sitting in the hallway with lawyers and probations – possibly for hours – is neither fast nor romantic.

And sometimes on some occasions after waiting are told to
come back on the next available courthouse wedding day.

Many couples go to the courthouse for a cou courthouse wedding rthouse wedding wanting a fast, cheap, and easy marriage ceremony. But in many cases that is not really what will they will get.

Getting married is something that should be cherished and celebrated. Even if it is quick and easy.

……Remember the old movies where the man climbs a ladder to his brides window and whisks her off to get married. st-louis-wedding-leveled Many of these old romantic marriages took place at a Justice of the peace. In Missouri there are no Justice of the Peace JOP

St Louis Wedding Chapel is a small Non Denominational Wedding Chapel. Open to ALL FAITH’s regardless of your faith – religion – or agnostic. We believe in Love.

We are all on our own path to Enlightenment.

At St Louis Wedding Chapel – We perform Wedding 7 Days a Week. Call… 314-472-5017

Getting married can be fast, easy, inexpensive – romantic & fun. You can elope simply by dressing up for a night on the town or come as you are. – There are no rules, be spontaneous and romantic.

Do it with Style at St Louis Wedding Chapel

• 1 Go to your local Recorder of Deeds and register for a marriage license. The small fee varies by county. Obtaining a Marriage license in Missouri can be same day

• 2 Designate your witnesses. Missouri requires two witnesses to oversee your union. Traditionally, this is the role of a st-louis-chapel-filtered maid of honor and best man. But a witness can be any adult over age 18.

• 3 Pamper yourself on your wedding day. Every bride deserves a little indulgence. So allow a long bubble bath. Give or treat yourself a manicure and pedicure, or even get your hair done. You are a princess that day, no matter how simple your ceremony will be.

• 4 But even if your plans are simple you can still get dressed up. Buy yourself a pretty new dress or a cute new top. You de
serve to look and feel special. It is an investment in you that will make you glow with happiness as you become a Mrs.

• 5 Carry flowers. Even if you cannot afford a specialty bouquet, pick a handful of wildflowers and tie with ribbons. These small details will help you feel the part of a blushing bride.

• 6 Assign a photographer. Whatever you do, don‘t skip this part. Pictures preserve the occasion and the memories. Have a friend or family member take snapshots before, during and after the wedding. Our Wedding Chapel make for beautiful memories. Go to the park, take pictures at a restaurant or go right down the street to River City Casino . there is a lot of beautiful scenery inside and out to take pictures. These moments of love deserve to be framed and remembered.

• 7 Plan what to do after the ceremony. Go out to eat with your witnesses and family members. Go somewhere you can afford and enjoy. A dinner after your ceremony makes the wedding feel official, giving you the perfect opportunity to laugh, love and share the beauty of the love you and your new spouse share. After the dinner, consider going away on a short retreat that is rejuvenating and fun, even if it is a simple night at a local motel.

A change of scenery can make all the difference. If that isn’t in the budget or your time frame, before you leave for the wedding ceremony, make your home into a honeymoon retreat. Make sure the bed is made up with fresh linens. Turn off the phone and anything else that could disturb you. Have a couple of candles set out, and don‘t forget a few luxuries such as a bottle of wine and maybe some chocolates. st-l-wedding-chapel-leveled
