A Clearwater courthouse wedding is such a sweet way to celebrate a marriage. The courthouse itself has a calm beauty to it, and the surrounding area makes it easy to wander and find pockets of light for photos. One of my favorite parts is that you can hold your ceremony in the courtyard. The natural light there is gentle and flattering, and it creates a setting that feels simple and heartfelt.
Once the ceremony is done, there are so many spots nearby to explore. The courthouse sits close to downtown, which means you can step right into streets filled with character. My favorite little route is to walk down S Osceola Ave and then turn left into Coachman Park. That stretch is full of places to pause for photos. You get greenery, water views, and those soft open spaces that make everything feel relaxed. The Clearwater community is incredibly welcoming, so don’t be surprised if you hear a few car horns and shouts of congratulations as you go.
Willy and Katlyn chose to elope at the Clearwater Courthouse in late November. They plan to have a larger wedding in 2027 but wanted this moment to be quiet and meaningful with only their family present. The day felt unrushed. They said their vows in the courtyard, wandered through downtown for photos, and shared time together without the pressure of a big timeline.
Clearwater has a way of holding these intimate moments with care. If you’re thinking about a courthouse wedding in this area, I would be honored to guide you through this process and chat about documenting it for you.
