You shouldn't have to settle for a 'cookie cutter' wedding ceremony; your ceremony should be as unique as the two of you and as special as the love you share. We'll work with you to create that perfect ceremony whether it's religious, non-religious, wacky, traditional or something in between.
Our packages include everything you'll need for the perfect wedding day such as a custom ceremonie, pre-wedding planning assistance, and a rehearsal the day before. When you choose to book You Had Me At I Do, we take care of everything for your ceremony!
No matter where you choose to tie the knot, we'll be there! Our officiants have performed wedding ceremonies virtually anywhere you can imagine. It doesn't matter where you choose to get married when you choose to have You Had Me At I Do marry you! When to Apply:
Your marriage license must generally be obtained at least seven days but no more than 30 days in advance. For example - if your wedding date is June 30th, you'll want to apply between June 1st and June 23rd. If you book with YHMAID, we'll send a reminder e-mail when it's time to get your license.
