Your Malibu Elopement - Comments

If the weather conditions make it dangerous to proceed with parts of your Malibu Beach Elopement the itinerary might be adjusted.

LGBTQ+ friendly: As a member of this community, I am privileged and honored to document LGBTQ+ weddings very often. Ceremony and planning will be tailored to your requests, pronouns, and preferences. I’m a proud member of EquallyWed Pro, and I speak as an educator on serving LGBTQ+ couples in the wedding industry.

There is a possibility to get legally married: I can ordained and can officiate and sign a marriage license if needed. The marriage license must be obtained in advance from the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk’s office. Here’s the list of details of what you should know about legal marriage before eloping in Malibu :

  • First, you’ll complete the Marriage License Application online with the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk’s office.
  • Next, you’ll need an appointment on a weekday during your business hours to receive the license in person.
  • Appointments can be made up to 3 weeks in advance. The license fee is 91 USD. To obtain a marriage license in Los Angeles County both parties must be present together and provide “Proof of Identity” and age documents (photo and age verification is mandatory).
  • Acceptable forms of I.Ds are Driver’s license and Passport.
  • All documents must be in English. Documents in any other language must be submitted with an English translation by a certified translator, and the translations must be notarized.

Payment Plan & Terms:
