 Here are a few more details to consider if you're thinking about eloping at the Riverside Superior Court:

Marriage licenses: To get married in California, you must obtain a marriage license from the county clerk's office. You can apply for a marriage license online or from the Orange County Clerk-Recorder Department office in Laguna. The application can be found here - https://ocweddings.ocrecorder.com/#/. and here https://www.ocrecorder.com/services/marriage-services

Scheduling a ceremony: Once you have your marriage license, you can schedule a courthouse ceremony with a judge or commissioner. The courthouse offers ceremonies Monday through Friday. You'll need to make an appointment in advance.

What to wear: “DO YOU,” dress as Glamorous, Boho, or modern as you would like. Wedding attire is highly recommended, especially if we are going to create some magic images together!

Guests: Courthouse elopements are usually small and intimate, with just the couple and a few close friends or family members in attendance. However, the Laguna Civic Center does allow up to 20 guests to attend your ceremony. If you invite guests, it's a good idea to let them know in advance so they can plan accordingly.
