Because of growing demand, Chief Magistrate Judge Berryl A. Anderson recently announced the relocation and expansion of marriage services in the Magistrate Court of DeKalb County, according to a press release.

Beginning April 2, magistrates will be available to conduct wedding ceremonies at a new location, the DeKalb County Magistrate Court Criminal Division Building, 3630 Camp Circle in Decatur:

The schedule:

Mondays: No weddings performed

Tuesdays - Fridays: 4 – 7 p.m.

Saturdays and Sundays: 1 – 4 p.m.

“In addition to having a larger space for couples, their family and friends, relocating wedding services will allow judges to perform ceremonies on Saturdays and Sundays,” said Anderson. “This change will increase our ability to accommodate the influx of requests that we are receiving. Ceremonies are performed on a first come, first served basis and are always free of charge.”

No weddings ceremonies will be held on DeKalb County observed holidays.
