What are the rules for courthouse wedding decorations???????

Question

I AM GETTING MARRIED AT A COURTHOUSE AND I WANT TO KNOW IF THEY LET U DECORATE AT ALL??? ITS A WEEKEND WEDDING SO THE COURTROOM WILL NOT BE IN USE.

I LIVE IN HOUSTON, TX AND WE ARE USING THE ACTUAL COURT ROOM.

Answer 1

So asking at Yahoo is getting you answers?

Call the clerk of court office at the actual courthouse where you are getting married and ASK someone who knows.

I don't know how you would work the dynamics of getting decorations inside a courthouse anyway. What are you planning to do, carry ferns and tulle bows and flower centerpieces from the parking lot to the chamber?

If I wanted more decor than just a bridal bouquet, I would plan my wedding for another venue. But good luck to you!

Answer 2

You need to contact the court clerk of the judge who's courtroom you will be using and ask if it is okay to decorate. They probably will not have a problem with it since the wedding is on a weekend as long as you designate a few people to clean up immediately after the wedding.

Answer 3

They will not let you decorate a sheriff's office . . and they will not let you decorate a court reporter's office . . and they will not let you decorate a judge's chambers . . so it is doubtful they will let you decorate the courtroom. Why would you want to spend money on decorations for a very brief ceremony in a courtroom?????

Answer 5
