FAQ
What is the parking like at the Pasadena City Hall?
There is usually ample parking that is metered around city hall especially on the west side. Pay the meters!
Do I need a permit to have my wedding here?
Yes and no. If you are okay just plopping down somewhere, no you don't. If you want to secure the entire inner garden area, yes you will need one.
How far in advance should we book?
Most couples just show up where it fits their timeline or when they want to do their ceremony.
How can I visit the location to see it?
We highly recommend you walk this venue to ensure it is great fit for you.
When should we do our ceremony there?
If you are doing an elopement or smaller ceremony you can do anytime you want up until 9pm and not before 7:30am. We of course always suggest 2 hours before sunset at the latest. Keep it small, usually under 20 guests and do expect people to just walk right through your ceremony.
