If you want a better way to spend your money, but want to tie the knot with your sweetheart still, consider a city hall wedding. Not only is it significantly cheaper, but it’ll take less time to plan and get through too.

In fact, you can pick any you wish! It can be in the city you first date,  or maybe you just like the look of another city hall better.

Check the Marriage License Requirements

Different city halls will have varying marriage license requirements, so do your research before committing to a courthouse.

Some city hall that has no required waiting periods, you’ll be able to get the marriage license and even get married on the same day. It is good choice for couples who don't want to wait.

Otherwise, some will make you wait anywhere between 30 to 90 days to get from a marriage license to the actual marriage.

And don't forget that there are expiration dates too. So ensure your scheduled wedding date isn’t later than that.

Apply for a Marriage License Once You Set on The Courthouse

You’ll generally need a government-issued ID.

While every place will have its own requirements, so check it carefully.

Also, if you or your significant other’s been married before, you’ll need to present your divorce papers.

Getting Married at the Courthouse Is Simple

Getting married at the courthouse is an easy way to solidify the relationship between you and your loved one. It’s perfect for those who don’t want something extravagant but still desire a special and intimate day.

Need Prepare for the Big Day

Bring your marriage license with you on your wedding day, as well as the government-issued IDs and other required paperwork.

You’ll also need to get a witness or two for your civil ceremony (the exact number depends on the location). 

Of course you can dress your witness girls with blush pink bridesmaid dresses for your witnesses!

Your witness can be your photographers during your wedding ceremony. That way, you’ll have wedding photos to look back on.

What details should be included on your unique wedding ivitations?

 There is countless ways to invite guests to your celebration, wording proper on your wedding invitations is pivotal  to reflect the style of the occasion and the changing times.

What you write on your invitations will set the tone for your big day. And also, the proper wording relays important information to guests.

You can do whatever makes good etiquette sense and makes you feel good, however, there are certain customary elements you should include. 

For example, always include a line dedicated to who is hosting the celebration. 

Whether you're paying for the wedding yourselves or are having a same-sex wedding and therefore have two families that are hosting, you should feel free to select wording that works for your unique situation. 

Each part of your wedding invitation will depict your specific nuptials, so there's always wiggle room.

Whatever your wedding style is, a casual, laid-back beach wedding, or a religious one stepped in tradition, there are ways to tell guests the information they need prior to attending the celebration party. 

How to word your invitations? What details should be included on your unique wedding ivitations?

Before wording the invitations, we should decide whether or not to feature a line on your general invitation or adding a separate reception card to your suite.

You should consider this early on, because they'll impact the ultimate cost of your invites suite.

To help you make sense of it all, we've compiled your wedding invitation wording checklist so you can make sure all the needed information is conveied to all your guests.

01 Host Line

Start with the names of those issuing the invitation, which would traditionally be the bride's parents. 

Evolving family structures and financial dynamics often make this the trickiest part of the process, just follow the format that best fits your situation.

02 Request Line

Two phrases are the most traditional; one indicates the ceremony will be in a house of worship, the other that it will not. 

At a Place of Worship: "Request the honor of your presence..." is the proper way to word the request line. 

Meanwhile at an informal ceremony, write: "Would be delighted by your presence at the marriage of their children..." 

Meanwhile, at an informal reception, write, "Invite you to join them at the wedding reception of..." to request the guest's presence.

Informal wording is becoming very common. 

Just be sure that whatever phrasing you choose indicates that guests are being invited to a wedding ceremony or the reception only.

03 Bride and Groom Lines

Names of the bridal couple are setted off on separate lines, because they are the stars of the invitations.

The preposition linking them goes on its own line: traditional American formatting uses the word "to;" some Jewish formats use the word "and."

For a traditional wedding, if the bride's last name is the same as her parents' above, it is typically not repeated. No courtesy title (such as Miss or Ms.) is used. 

For a contemporary wedding, if the couple or both sets of parents are to host, treat the names equally.

04 Date and Time Format

Don't worry about using a.m. or p.m., or a phrase such as "in the evening," unless the wedding will be held at 8, 9, or 10 o'clock. 

The year is traditionally omitted as well, but it is sometimes included for the invitation's keepsake value.

For a traditional wedding, spell out numbers and capitalize proper nouns only; 

You can begin the line with the preposition "on" if you'd like. 

For a contemporary wedding, though using numerals is a more modern practice, it is not necessarily more casual.

05 Location

It's traditional not to include street addresses of houses of worship or well-known locations, but this is less common lately. 

Commas are not used at the ends of lines, and the state is always spelled out.

For example: traditional and religious weddings, write, like this 'Saint Paul's Lutheran Church, Walkersville, Maryland.'  For a contemporary affair, if you are using a street address, numerals are acceptable but no ZIP code is needed; this is not for mailing.

06 Reception Line or Card

If the ceremony and reception are in the same space, they can be on a single invitation. 

If the reception is held elsewhere, a separate reception card might be helpful. 

It is no longer considered acceptable to invite some people only to the ceremony.

Order: Red Maple Leaves Reception Cards HPC040

07 R.S.V.P. Line or Reply Card

For a R.S.V.P. line on the invitation. it goes in the lower left corner; you can also include mailing address, phone number, email address, or website. 

If you're using a separate card, a traditional fill-in-the-blank version provides the first letter of Mr. or Mrs.; or try a single line, such as "Please let us know whether you will join us," with space for writing.

Brides today generally include Reply Card, envelope, and stamp to encourage guests to respond to their invitation in a timely manner, even though traditional etiquette doesn't actually call for them. It's not rude to omit these, but it might be risky.

08 Special Details on the Wedding Invitation

Anything important you want your guest to know.

For example dress code, if you want to stress the importance of the style of dress—black tie, for instance, or casual attire—place that information in the lower right corner, or on the reception card.

If your event won't include a full meal, it's courteous to inform your guests. Use phrasing such as, "and afterward for cocktails," instead of the classic "at the reception."

The only thing that should not be included anywhere on your invitation—not even as an insert—is your registry information.

I think you can add your registry information on your save the date card, or your wedding website.

Wedding Parts Complained By Most Guests You Can Avoid

 Wedding party is not the boring chicken dinner, it's all about best wishes, welcome and thankful, friends and family will enjoy. No one wants to find that the wedding she planned with all her heart complained by guests. To be on the safe side, besides preparing flip floops for all the dancing ladies, diverse menu for many different tastes, check out these things to make sure you didn't overlook anything.

01 If your wedding date is during one of the long-awaited holiday, Memorial Day, July 4, or Labor Day, try to have your wedding in a tropical locale or fun urban area, your guests will actually welcome the chance to get away.

02 Before printing and sending, make sure all the location details, like street name, location name, number are corret, so guests can easily more to right place with GPD. And if you're going to provide direction ask someone not familiar with the area to test them out and tweak as needed.

03 Make sure there is no more than an hour between the ceremony and reception. There's nothing worse than being all dressed up to kill between the "I DO's" and the party. If it's not possible to cut down time between the two part, an informal get-together where out-of-towner can hang out for the duration of the gap is the solution. Ask a relative or friend in the area to be the host, it doesn't have to be anything super fancy, even iced tea and cookies will do.

04 Cash bar is not acceptable. If you're inviting your loved ones to celebrate your wedding, you should pay for their drink. For a budget wedding, it's perfectly fine to have a limited selection, such as wine, bear. As long as it's free, guests will drink whatever is available for them.

05 Avoid long boring toasts by asking matron of honor or bestman to speak instead of "whoever wants to say a few words".

06 Shut down the receiving lines to avoid a time suck get in the way of starting the reception. Instead use a table-hop at the reception to thank guests for coming.

07 If someone is in a long-term relationship, the partner should get an wedding invitation, even if you're having budget wedding, or space is tight.

How to Mentioning Dress Code of Your Wedding?

A wedding invitation and enclosure card are ways to convey your dress code to wedding guests. Why? Including the dress code on wedding invitations is an easy way to ensures your event stays as formal or as casual as you want, and it’s helpful for guests to know exactly what is expected of them and helps ensure everyone is properly attired for your wedding. But make sure it sounds fun so they’ll want to participate, instead of feeling obligated to.

Where does the dress code on the wedding invitation? 

If your ceremony and reception are at the same location, the wedding dress code should be printed at the bottom right or bottom center of your invitation. This is known as corner copy and is available on most wedding invitations.

If the ceremony and reception are in separate locations, your dress code should be printed on both reception card and invitation. That way, there's no confusion! This can also be helpful if your wedding and reception don't have the same dress code.

    Your invitation design will also clue guests in. An ultra-formal, traditional invite with letterpress and calligraphy will give guests a hint to the formal nature of the event, whereas a square invite with a       playful font and bright colors would fit a much more casual style. 

    Design your invitations to reflect a themed wedding. Themed weddings are becoming more and more popular. Choose elements of your theme to include on your invitation to make the dress code more clear to guests.

   Including a simple enclosure card that accompanies your wedding invitation is a great way to let guests know about important guidelines, especially if your wedding invitation design doesn't easily accommodate extra information about the dress code, like remind guests to bring warm layers and appropriate footwear for a winter outdoor wedding. Also, it can be a big help if you attach inspiration photos, especially for a theme party, so they'll know what you have in mind.

Another way is to direct guests to your wedding website about the dress code.
