Once you decide to get married, you have to choose flowers, dresses, bridesmaids, and the venue. How big or small the celebration is probably depends a lot on your pocketbook. If you want to have something memorable, and fool your friends at the same time, you could opt for a San Francisco city hall wedding. If the friends thought they would be witnessing you standing in front of a judge in a sterile room, they will be in for a shock.

This building is one of the most iconic and photographed monuments in San Francisco. You can actually be married there for as little as a thousand dollars. This amount will get you a one hour ceremony conducted on the fourth floor gallery or on the Mayor's Balcony. There is seating for sixty guests. Since you only have one hour, the reception will have to be held elsewhere.

When you have something more elaborate in mind, and are planning to invite a lot more guests, you might choose the two hour ceremony. These ceremonies take place on the Rotunda's Grand Staircase. The area will seat approximately two hundred guests. The basic cost is five thousand dollars and, in addition to the venue, you have basic services, chairs, and insurance included.

If you want to splurge, you can choose an evening wedding. Once again, the Grand Staircase is the sight of the wedding vows. You may have a cocktail reception in the North Light Court with formal dining, and dancing after, in the Rotunda. Weddings may take place during the week or on a weekend. You will have access to the venue for up to twelve hours.

These packages do not include everything. When you meet with the events coordinator, you should go over what is covered in the basic package, and what you will be expected to provide. The building has a limited amount of equipment and chairs for instance. Most couples contract with an independent vendor to provide the equipment they need.

The packages do not come with marriage certificates or licenses. For those you will have to go to the Clerk of the Court's office. Packages are not inclusive of a person to officiate at the ceremony. If you don't have a preference, contacting the city or the Clerk's office is recommended.

You will receive a list of rules and regulations when you sign your event contract. You should read it over before you spend money on fireworks, smoke or snow machines, or confetti. None of these items are allowed. You can't affix banners, lights, or signs to the building's exterior without the authorization of the city engineer.

San Francisco is a beautiful place, and city hall is one of its most beautiful buildings. It is considered an excellent example of American Renaissance architecture. Getting married there will be an experience you can relate to generations to come.
