**2023 City Hall Update**
Yes city hall is STILL doing the same thing they've been doing since they reopened in 2020. We don't know when it will change.
City Hall is doing Zoom weddings on Mondays and Tuesdays.
Appointments are needed for all in person sessions at City Hall. You cannot just walk in and get married like you used to be able to do pre-pandemic. They are only booking about 2 months in advance at this point.
Wednesday - Friday and are in person from 9-11:15 and 2-3:15. Saturday weddings are at 9am. They tell everyone to come at the same time which is a total mess. So expect a wait time on Saturdays. To make an appointment call 312-603-5660.
You are only allowed 2 additional people/guests beyond the couple for now. They are still requiring you to wear a mask in the waiting area down there. Once you actually get in the room you'll get married in the judge MAY let you remove it.
