Ah, New Mexico! Such a terrific and charming state, when it pertains to wedding events we are a little different. In numerous places you go to the county court house get your license, ask to see a Judge or Justice of the Peace and Voila you are married! Not here.

While Judges and other officials can marry you, they do not. Well let me correct that, they don't actually want to. In the majority of counties in New Mexico the Judges are busy, so scheduling time to do wedding events is not a real top priority. What will take place is the clerks will offer to put you on a waiting list, typically 6 to 8 weeks. At that time, if a Judge is available you can have an in chambers wedding. Notice the if available? Almost anything can trigger a hold-up, we had one couple who waited the 8 weeks, only to be told the Judge was away on business and could they come back in a week?

If you are from out of town you can not really wait around, and if you are from town do you really desire to wait? For civil type of ceremonies we offer 3 alternatives.
