Expected bad weather Saturday led a Gwinnett County city to cancel a planned Valentine’s event.

Norcross had planned to give carriage rides to people downtown Saturday evening — masks required. But the city on Friday said the rides were canceled due to inclement weather.

The free event was being billed as a Valentine’s Night Out. Couples were urged to renew their vows, take a romantic photo or cozy up in a carriage to celebrate romance.

Other holiday events in the city in the coming months have yet to be planned.
