Say “I Do” with a Twist: Halloween-Themed Weddings at the Collier County Courthouse
This October, the chapel will be decorated with a mix of fall and Halloween décor for couples wishing to tie-the-knot on Halloween. Couples and their guests are encouraged to wear costumes for the festive occasion. Costumes must adhere to courthouse security regulations with masks or face painting applied after passing through security and no costume accessories that are considered weapons are allowed, including plastic items such as plastic swords or handcuffs. Additionally, costumes must be publicly appropriate and cannot be revealing or otherwise explicit.
“This is an opportunity for the couples to say their ‘I Dos’ while dressed in costumes expressing their creativity and unique personality,” said Clerk Crystal K. Kinzel. “I am looking forward to celebrating Halloween with the couples of our community.”
Appointment availability is limited, so couples who are interested are encouraged to schedule their appointment early to reserve their spots. The ceremony fee is $30 and will be due at the time of the ceremony. Couples must secure a marriage license at the Clerk’s office at least three days prior to the wedding day and prior to scheduling their appointment.
To apply for a marriage license, visit the Clerk’s website at CollierClerk.com and use the Marriage License Button, or stop by the Recording Department on the 2nd Floor of the Collier County Courthouse or one of the Satellite Office Locations and present the following requirements: valid ID (Driver’s License, State ID, Military ID, or Passport) and Social Security Number. If you do not have a Social Security Number, the application may still be issued. Both parties must be present and should be at least 18 years old upon application.
Couples should take note that marriage licenses are only valid for a 60-day period. Therefore, they must ensure that their marriage licenses are still effective on the day of the ceremony for their marriage to be valid. In applying for marriage licenses, standard rates will apply.
Please contact 239-252-7242 or email [email protected] to schedule your appointment. Additional information about the Marriage License application is available at collierclerk.com.
