Weddings

Judge Williams performs wedding ceremonies Monday through Friday in the courtroom during regular business hours and some weekends. Weddings off-site are available and the cost is contingent on the venue location and time.

Weddings are scheduled by appointment, however walk-ins are welcomed so long as the Judge's schedule permits.

A marriage license is required. The marriage license must be purchased at least 72 hours before the ceremony unless you have a waiver. The wedding must be performed no more than 89 days after the marriage license is purchased.

For information about marriage licenses call the Travis County Clerk’s office at 512-854-9188 or visit online at: https://countyclerk.traviscountytx.gov/departments/recording/domestic-partnerships/

Payment is by cash only.

Please call 512-854-7700 to schedule an appointment or for further information.
