How ‘bout it, Gwinnettian lovebirds? Wanna get hitched this Valentine’s Day — for free?

Gwinnett County’s magistrate and probate courts will host free wedding — and vow renewal — services between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. in Courtroom 1H of the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center.

Appointments are not necessary but encouraged, and can be made by calling 770-822-8081.

Couples hoping to get married must obtain a valid marriage license prior to the ceremony and bring the original document with them.
