What is your office\u2019s role in providing marriage services for residents?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A. Our clerks have the important, and fun, responsibility of assisting in filing marriage applications, issuing licenses per Florida Statute 741.01, performing wedding ceremonies, and providing copies of Marriage Records. Last year our staff issued more than 2,400 marriage licenses. We take great pride in helping couples navigate the process and beginning their married lives together.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q. Last year the clerk\u2019s office held its inaugural group Valentine\u2019s Day wedding ceremony. What is your office\u2019s plan for this year\u2019s event?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A. Our office will be hosting its annual Valentine\u2019s Day group wedding ceremony in partnership with the Seventh Judicial Circuit. Last year\u2019s event was special as seven couples exchanged vows, and we look forward to supporting the same this year. The ceremony will take place on Wednesday, Feb. 14, 2024, at 1 p.m. at the Richard O. Watson Judicial Center located at 4010 Lewis Speedway. The Honorable Judge Howard O. McGillin, Jr. will officiate the ceremony.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q. Can you provide details for couples interested in registering?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A. To tie the knot on Valentine\u2019s Day, couples can register for the event online by visiting https:\/\/stjohnsclerk.com\/wedding or calling (904) 819-3604, no later than Sunday, Feb. 11. The ceremony is limited to the first 50 couples.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Participating couples will receive a digital photograph and video of the event. Couples are still required to pay for a marriage license. Participating couples will have to purchase their marriage license from the clerk&#8217;s office no later than Feb. 11. Marriage licenses are not valid until three days after issuance (applies to Florida residents only).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if you can\u2019t make it to our special Valentine\u2019s Day event to get married, our office conducts marriage ceremonies Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. for $30.
