Dare we suggest that if you don't get married here, at least let our
romantic city honeymoon with you? There's plenty to do for the newly
hitched, from sunset cruises with Savannah Riverboat Cruises or
Setwake Savannah to a horse-drawn tour of the downtown with
Carriage Tours of Savannah.
Stroll through Bonaventure Cemetery or down River Street, or book
Savannah Black History Tours or Savannah for Morons, The
Comedy Trolley Tour for a unique glimpse at our city. If you and your
loved one prefer more action-packed adventures, try Tybee Shark
Teeth Tours or Captain Joe's Dive Bar Ghost Walk.
Because honeymoons are all about getting cozy, book a bungalow
at Cohen's Retreat or try Oceanfront Cottage Rentals, which offers
rentals on Tybee's beach. For true Southern hospitality, book the
honeymoon suite at The Gastonian.
License
to Wed
There is a three-step process
to getting a marriage license in
Savannah. First, complete an online
application on the Probate Court
website. Then, make an appointment
to appear in person at the court,
located at 133 Montgomery St.
Finally, appear at your appointment
with all necessary supporting
documents, including a photo ID or
a certified birth certificate. For more
information, visit the Probate Court's
website at courts.chathamcountyga.
gov/probate/marriagelicenses.
WEDDINGS IN
THE SQUARES
To be married in one of the Historic
District's 23 squares in the presence
of more than 50 people — or with any
set-up involved — you must apply
for a public assembly permit at least
30 days in advance. You also must
hire an off-duty Savannah police
officer for the duration of the event.
Fees range from $350 to $750 for a
four-hour event. For more information,
visit the City of Savannah's website at
savannahga.gov.
WEDDINGS ON
THE BEACH
You must secure a $25 beach event
permit from the City of Tybee no
matter the size of your wedding. Be
aware that no dogs are permitted
on the beach, so your fur baby
cannot be a ringbearer. For more
information, visit the City of Tybee's
website at cityoftybee.org or Southern
Coastal Weddings at weddings.
