We will be holding our annual Valentine\u2019s Day group wedding ceremony on Friday, Feb. 14, 2025, at 1 p.m. This year we\u2019re including vow renewals, and we are partnering with House of Assembly Events to host this momentous occasion at The Carriage House in downtown St. Augustine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q. Can you provide details for couples interested in registering?<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong>A. To tie the knot or renew vows during the group ceremony on Valentine\u2019s Day, couples must register online by visiting stjohnsclerk.com\/wedding. Registration closes on Friday, Feb. 7 at 5 p.m. The ceremony is limited to the first 50 couples. Participating couples must also purchase their marriage license from the clerk&#8217;s office no later than Feb. 10. Photography services are available for an additional fee; if interested, choose this option when registering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q. For couples who can\u2019t attend the group ceremony, what services do you provide at your office?<\/strong><br>A. Our clerks love helping couples navigate the process of starting a new life together in marriage by assisting with marriage applications and issuing marriage licenses. In 2024, we issued 2,765 marriage licenses, and introduced a new wedding photo service to capture couples in their special moment. For couples who can\u2019t make it to our special Valentine\u2019s Day event, we also perform wedding ceremonies during regular business hours at the Richard O. Watson judicial center, located at 4010 Lewis Speedway in St. Augustine. While walk-ins are welcome, couples can also book an appointment online. Note that marriage licenses are not valid until three days after issuance (applies to Florida residents only).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q. What is the best way for people to contact you with questions?<\/strong><br>A. For questions about the services we provide at the Clerk\u2019s office, our Customer Care Call Center is available Monday \u2013 Friday from 8 a.m. \u2013 5 p.m. at (904) 819-3600, and by email at clerk@stjohnsclerk.com. I can also be reached directly on my cell at (904) 599-8688 or by email at BPatty@stjohnsclerk.com.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Q.
