DC Elopements offers a number of services to assist couples with Washington DC marriage and elopements – from applying by proxy for a marriage license at the Superior Court of the District of Columbia to performing elopement and full wedding ceremonies.
Washington, DC law mandates that wedding ceremonies may only be performed by someone who has been authorized and registered with the DC Marriage Bureau. You must put the full name of your officiant on the application before you submit it at the courthouse or your marriage license can not be printed. All of our officiants are authorized and registered with the DC Marriage Bureau and are happy to provide ceremony services to all couples, regardless of faith or orientation.
We are pleased to offer the following services to all couples who would like to be married in Washington, DC:
