Cheaper Than the Courthouse. Better Than a Big Wedding.
A courthouse wedding in New York costs $35 for the marriage licence — but then you are in a waiting room, under fluorescent lights, with 60 seconds and no personal vows. That is not a wedding. That is a transaction.
With I Do Drive Thru USA you spend $500 and get a real ceremony. At a real location you chose. With an officiant who actually shows up for you. On a Saturday if you want. With your dog if you want. While eating pizza if that is your thing.

A courthouse wedding is legal but not memorable. You wait in line, sign some forms, get 60 seconds in front of a clerk, and you are done. With I Do Drive Thru USA you get the same legal outcome — a fully binding US marriage — but at Central Park, a Malibu beach, a Vegas rooftop, or a Virginia waterfall. With vows. With photos. On a Saturday. For $500.
