About Luzerne County Courthouse

A wedding at the Luzerne County Courthouse takes place under the dome of its rotunda in Wilkes-Barre, a soaring space where a central arch and staircases descend to the spot where you'll stand. For wedding photos and video, those staircases are the setting: picture your wedding party lined up the steps, or the two of you at the arch looking out over your guests. The county allows photos inside the courthouse, and the grounds along the Susquehanna are open to the public for pictures at no charge.

Wedding ceremonies here are held in the rotunda only, and the county is honest that it has very limited floor space, so this suits a small guest list. Any officiant licensed in Pennsylvania may lead the ceremony, or you can contact a judge's chambers or a district justice's office directly. A short walk along the path from the courthouse takes you into the River Common with its gardens, a natural next stop for pictures before your wedding reception elsewhere.

The rotunda's acoustics are excellent; past weddings haven't needed a sound system, which is good news for your videographer. Only standard outlets are available, and there's an amplified podium for readings. Every member of the bridal party signs a release, especially if anyone will use the staircase, archway or platform. Setup and removal of flowers and chairs happen on your wedding day under supervision. Guests park in the main lot across River Street, with accessible parking at the rear lower level and an elevator lift.
