Whole lotta Valentine’s Day weddings set for next week in Hidalgo County
You’ve got to love this.
Six Hidalgo County Justices of the Peace will perform free wedding ceremonies next week to commemorate Valentine’s Day.
The unions, by appointment only, will be offered in Edinburg, Elsa, Mission and Weslaco.
The events require a valid marriage license, which can be purchased in person at the County Clerk’s office at the Vitals & Official Records office, located one block north of the courthouse at 317 N. Closner Blvd. in Edinburg. Both applicants must be present and provide identification and social security card.
Marriage licenses must be acquired 72 hours before the event — that deadline is Friday.
Couples could still get their marriage license Monday or Tuesday, but that will require a waiver from the County Clerk’s Office to participate in the Wednesday weddings.
The largest event, dubbed a “Mass Wedding,” will be performed by Charlie Espinoza, Justice of the Peace Precinct 4, Place 1, from 10 a.m. to noon Wednesday at 201 W. McIntyre St. More than 50 couples participated in the union last year. Register by calling (956) 380-4473.
