Some couples do not want a ceremony. They want to be married, correctly and quickly, and they want the paperwork handled by somebody who has done it a hundred times.
That is what this is. A licensed officiant meets you, reads a short script, and signs your license. You are married in about twenty minutes.
Best for
- Couples who already had the wedding and need the legal part
- Short notice marriages
- Courthouse alternatives when the clerk cannot fit you in
- Military and visa deadlines
Step by step
How it works
- 1
Get your license
Whichever county you marry in issues it. The rules differ by state, so ask us and we will tell you exactly what yours needs.
- 2
Pick a time and place
We meet you wherever suits. A park, an office, the clerk's steps.
- 3
Sign
We read a short script, you both say yes, and we sign the license.
- 4
We file it
We return the signed license to the county so your record is complete.
After you book
The part that comes before the day
The planner opens straight away
Guest list, RSVPs, schedule and registry, all in your portal. It comes with every booking — there is nothing to add.
Open the plannerYour date is held
The deposit holds the day. The balance is settled from your portal, or on the day, whichever suits you.
See your bookingsPhotographs land in your vault
Anything we shoot arrives in a private gallery that belongs to your booking, and it is yours to keep.
See the vaultWorth adding
Bought alongside the booking, never instead of it. Add-ons are paid in full — no deposit arithmetic. The website is the one exception: 60% now, the rest when it goes live.
Event website
Zathena VenturesYour own site for the day: details, gift registry, RSVPs, and the gallery.
Every booking includes our wedding planner — guest list, RSVPs, schedule and registry in your portal. This publishes it: everything you planned becomes a real page your guests can visit, and their RSVPs land straight back in your planner. Guests see the photographs watermarked and can buy a clean copy of any one of them. Includes the domain and the first year of hosting; $50 a year after that to keep it up. 60% is due when you order, the rest once your site is connected to its domain and live.
Custom event merch
Shirts, hats and sweaters carrying a photograph from your own day.
Printed to order once your gallery lands, so the image is one you have actually seen. Ordered from your media vault, priced per item, plus a one-time print-setup fee for each photograph — custom artwork is prepared once and used once, which is why studio designs never carry that fee.
