Marina del Rey and Venice same-day marriage FAQ
Do we need a permit for a wedding on Venice Beach?
The sand at Venice Beach is permitted by Los Angeles County Beaches and Harbors, whose Special Event Use Permit covers weddings. Apply between 90 days and three weeks ahead. The county’s pages differ on whether very small groups need it, so call (424) 526-7880.
Can we get married at Burton Chace Park?
Yes, by reservation. The county offers the North Pergola, the South Pergola and the Bridge for weddings, booked between 90 and 21 days ahead on (424) 526-7910. If you reserve one, we bring the license and officiate.
Can you marry us on our boat?
Yes, while it is docked in the marina. We bring the license and the officiant to you.
Can we get married at night, on a weekend or on a holiday?
Yes. We take appointments 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including weekends and holidays, and same-day times are usual. A weekend license and ceremony is $500 plus the $85 county license fee ($585 in total). Late-night times may carry an after-hours fee, which we confirm before you book.
How much does it cost?
In the chapel, a license and ceremony is $400 on a weekday or $500 on a weekend plus the $85 county license fee, so $485 or $585 in total. A mobile license and ceremony at your location starts at $600 plus the $85 county license fee; the exact price depends on distance, day and time, and we quote it before you book. If you already have a license, the ceremony alone is $250 on a weekday or $300 on a weekend. No payment is needed to book.
Do we need witnesses?
No. The license we issue is a confidential California marriage license, which has no witness requirement. California does ask that the two of you are living together to use one. If you bring a public license from the county instead, you need one witness at the ceremony.
Do you take walk-ins?
Please call first: (310) 295-0615. Same-day times are usual, and a quick call means we are ready for you when you arrive.
