For those who’d like to get married on Valentine’s Day but haven’t yet booked a venue, Marion County Clerk Beth White will marry couples Friday in an effort to raise money for the American Heart Association’s “Go Red for Women” campaign.
For the eighth year in a row, the clerk’s office will be transformed into a “wedding chapel” for couples who’d like a simple civil ceremony on Valentine’s Day. In lieu of the officiant’s fee, couples are asked to make a voluntary contribution of $50 to the American Heart Association.
This event has raised nearly $16,000 since it began in 2007, with 341 couples getting married.
Sixty-six couples have already registered for ceremonies this year, which take place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the City-County Building. Walk-ins are being accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Visit www.indy.gov/clerk for more information.
