Weddings

Both Mayor Weiss and Judge Anne Walton Keller perform weddings.

At least one of the engaged couple must be a Shaker resident, and provide proof of residency before the ceremony. Either a driver’s license or utility bill is acceptable. The Mayor performs weddings at City Hall as his schedule permits, Monday through Thursday; he does not go off-site. There is a $100 fee for weddings.

Marriage License

Marriage Licenses may be obtained at the Probate Court of Cuyahoga County in downtown Cleveland, or by appointment at a Marriage License Satellite Office, including the Shaker Heights Municipal Court. Pre-register online for a marriage license, then submit the license and the $100 fee two weeks prior to the wedding date. 

Hours

City Hall is open the following hours:
Monday to Friday
8:30 am to 5 pm

There’s a mail drop by the front door off the parking lot.
