How an Omaha Courthouse Wedding Works
Ready to start planning your courthouse wedding ceremony? I love guiding my clients through this process! Contact me to get the real inside scoop on courthouse weddings that scouring the internet can’t provide, or read through some most common questions below.
The most important thing you’ll need is a marriage license. You and your partner will head to the courthouse with all necessary personal identification (valid ID, Social Security number, etc) and fill out the marriage license. You can read all of the specific requirements on the Douglas County Courthouse website.
