Why choose St Paul’s Deco City Hall for your elopement?
The art deco lobby of St Paul’s city hall is a stunning piece of Art Deco architecture and lovely for an elopement. It features 4 story tall black stone walls with gold ornamentation. In the center is the world’s largest onyx statue, spinning slowly in the lobby of St Paul’s city hall.
Many couples choose the St Paul City Hall because it is a convenient civic space for small weddings and elopements. They are often surprised by the unique and stunning art deco interior.


The symmetrical details of art deco
This building, built in the 1930’s, is a gorgeous piece of civil architecture and it makes for a equally stunning space for a small wedding. The symmetry of the front lobby is an unmatched space for portraits. The dark interior does require some finesse with lighting to bring in the details, but it is worth it for this space.


Ceremony spaces at St Paul City Hall
Ceremony locations at the St Paul City Hall will depend on the judge that you have and the timing of your ceremony. Some judges prefer to have ceremonies in chambers, as with this wedding. Some judges at the end of the day will perform a ceremony in the main lobby.




Formal photos in Rice Park
Besides the interior of the St Paul City Hall, the area around Rice Park is perfect for a few portraits with lots of St Paul flair. An easy walk and only a block away from City Hall, this can bring the rest of St Paul into your photos.





The Worlds Largest Onyx Statue
Because if there is a 3 story tall statue, I would like it to be in your photos.
