About Us

Discover the story behind 24 Hour Marriage LA and how we're redefining the path to "I do"

Our Story

It all started over four years ago with a simple observation: getting married in California, a city built on dreams, was often more about paperwork than passion. Our founders, Alex and Parker, watched friends and family navigate a maze of appointments, long waits, and bureaucratic hurdles just to get a marriage license.

They asked a powerful question: What if we could capture the spontaneous, exhilarating spirit of a Vegas wedding and plant it right here in the heart of CALIFORNIA? From that question, 24 Hour Marriage LA was born—not just as a business, but as a mission to put the magic back into the marriage process.

Awesome, easy experience - Alex helped us with all the paperwork so it was painless and quick- he also did a beautiful ceremony for us so my mom could take all the pictures /video she wanted. 100% recommend this place if you need to get legally married or just want a simple ceremony instead of a big wedding. The place is also quite beautiful with flowers and nice chairs. Thanks to 24 hour marriage!
