Q&A
You asked us…. and we have answers
Wait, so I can’t just get married at the Richmond courthouse?
Actually, MOST local courthouses in RVA have hopped out of the elopement game. That’s where we come in! Think of us as an upgrade from the traditional courthouse ceremony. We handle the legal bits and we do the "I do's" with way better vibes and zero bureaucracy.
Is a License Signing just a cold, clinical meeting?
Not on our watch. We call it the Perfect Duet and while it is our quickest option—perfect for health insurance needs, military paperwork, or a "legalize it now, party later" plan—we still make it feels like a milestone. It’s 10 minutes of legal magic—efficient, but still sweet.
Do we need to bring anything besides us and the rings?
You are certainly the star of the show! But you’ll need to grab a marriage license from any Virginia Circuit Court before we meet. Bring that paperwork and a valid ID, and we’ll handle the legal filing. Most importantly bring the LOVE
Is Hello Love actually "for everyone"?
Unequivocally….We don’t just "tolerate" diversity; we celebrate it. Whether you’re LGBTQ+, interfaith, non-religious, or just "two people who love each other," you are safe, seen, and celebrated here. No gatekeeping, just love.
Is Tia the only one who can marry us?
Tia is our founder and leading "Love Lady," but she’s built a team of professional, high-energy officiants who share the same mission: making sure your ceremony is the best part of your day, not just a box to check.
Where exactly do these ceremonies happen?
Getting started is simple. Reach out through our contact form or schedule a call—we’ll walk you through the next steps and answer any questions along the way.
We want to elope outdoors. What if RVA weather decides to be... RVA weather?
We always suggest a "Plan B" (like a covered porch or indoor backup), but we’re pros at pivoting. We’ll watch the radar with you and help coordinate a shift in time or location to keep your "I do's" dry and dreamy.
Can we say our own vows, or do you have a script?
We definitely create scripts, but you’re in the driver seat. We love it when couples write their own vows! If the thought of public speaking makes you break a sweat, don’t worry—we will have beautifully crafted script ready to go that will still make your ceremony unforgetable
Why should we choose Hello Love instead of just a random celebrant?
Because we get it. We know you want to be married, but you don't want to spend eighteen months planning . We provide the expertise of a high-end wedding without the headache.
