About The Old Courthouse

A wedding at The Old Courthouse in downtown Cleveland begins with a building that looks like a palace of law. The Cuyahoga County Courthouse on Lakeside Avenue is a Beaux Arts landmark of pink Milford granite, with arched windows, carved stone figures along the cornice and bronze statues flanking the front doors. Those front steps give your photographer a grand picture of the whole wedding party, and inside, the atrium becomes your ceremony and reception space, with murals and stonework that look rich on wedding photos and video.

The county rents the building for weddings and special events on Saturdays, with Sundays and holidays available for an extra fee. You can hold your wedding ceremony and reception under one roof: seating reaches 300, with room left for a dance floor. Alcohol is permitted, and the building is smoke-free. The county has no preferred photographer and no preferred caterer, so you bring the team you want. Your videographer will appreciate the scale of the space for the processional, though a hard stone room can echo, so ask them to plan microphones for your vows and the toasts.

One detail to share with guests ahead of time: everyone goes through a metal detector on the way in, so build a few extra minutes into your wedding day timeline. The county has charged a separate hourly photography fee in the past, so ask how that works if you want to come back for pictures on another day.

Email or call the county's wedding rentals office to check dates and current rates.
Tour the atrium with your photographer and videographer and plan where the ceremony and dinner will sit.
Ask about photo and video guidelines, parking and timing for setup.
