- Judges are available to preside over your wedding ceremony.
- Please request a date at least one week in advance to allow for
processing. If there is less than one week before your requested date,
please be sure to indicate that under special requests. Every attempt
will be made to accommodate your request.
- Weddings can be performed at the courthouse or a location of your
choice within Minnesota.
