Ceremonies are performed Monday through Friday at noon and 5 p.m.; you must arrive by 11:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., respectively.

You must obtain a marriage/civil union license and bring it with you. Marriage/civil union licenses are available from the Clerk’s Office in any Colorado county. Most Arapahoe County DMV locations provide licenses.

Marriage/civil union licenses are only valid for 35 days from the date of issue. Once signed, licenses must be returned to the County Clerk’s Office within 63 days.

To schedule your ceremony call 303.739.6535. Please call well in advance to ensure a judge will be available.

Witnesses are not required, but family and friends are welcome.

Call immediately if you must cancel. If you do not call in advance to cancel and fail to show up, you will not be able to reschedule.

Appear on time and let the Marshals at the front door know you are here for a wedding/civil union. They will direct you to the appropriate courtroom.
