This Riverside wedding day was proof that you don’t need a traditional venue to make getting married feel special. These two took care of the legal signing and paperwork at the Riverside County Clerk’s office nearby, then we headed over to Riverside City Hall for their wedding portraits.
They didn’t actually get married inside City Hall — we used the area as the backdrop for photos, taking advantage of the architecture and downtown Riverside setting. It was simple, intimate and gave us plenty of time to focus on the two of them without the rush of a traditional wedding day.
If you’re planning a Riverside courthouse or civil wedding, you can absolutely turn the legal part of the day into a full little wedding experience with portraits around downtown afterward.
Location: Riverside City Hall — 3900 Main Street, Riverside, California
