Scheduled for the always-popular day of love on February 14, 2025, the event promises to be a perfect place for lovebirds to tie the knot, right in the charming surroundings of Goodwood Museum and Gardens. With a beautiful venue, community spirit, and even some sweet perks, this is one wedding you won’t want to miss!

A Beautiful Ceremony in a Gorgeous Setting

This year’s ceremony will take place at the delightful Main House at Goodwood Museum and Gardens, located at 1600 Miccosukee Road. The ceremony is set to begin at 2 p.m., allowing plenty of time for couples and their loved ones to soak in the ambiance and get into the Valentine’s spirit. The handcrafted charm of Goodwood creates an enchanting backdrop for couples to declare their everlasting love.

Who Can Participate?

Couples eager to proclaim their commitment must register online before February 3, 2025. Registration for this exciting experience opened on December 16, 2024, so it’s essential to secure a spot sooner rather than later. The Clerk of the Court, Gwen Knight, will graciously officiate the ceremony, making it an official occasion for all involved. And here’s a delightful twist: the normal $30 wedding ceremony fee has been waived, allowing couples to focus on what truly matters—celebrating their love!

Licensing Made Easy

To participate in this lovely affair, couples must obtain a marriage license, which can conveniently be applied for online through leonclerk.com. Remember, both applicants need to present a valid photo ID and visit either the Leon County Courthouse or the NE Branch on Metropolitan Boulevard during usual business hours (Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.). It’s a straightforward process to ensure your readiness to say “I do.”

Special Touches for the Happy Couples

As a special thank you for participating, couples will receive a Commemorative Marriage Certificate to mark the day. Better yet, they’ll also have easy access to wedding photos online, creating lasting memories they can cherish forever. To keep the celebration going post-ceremony, light refreshments will be provided for newlyweds and their guests—a perfect way to toast to love!

The Importance of Community

This heartwarming event isn’t just about the weddings—it’s also a testament to the fantastic partnership between the Clerk’s office and the wondrous Goodwood Museum and Gardens, which provides the venue free of charge. The collaboration reflects a deep sense of community, reminding residents of the love and support surrounding them on their big day.

What If You Can’t Attend the Group Wedding?

No worries! For those unable to join the group wedding ceremony, individual wedding ceremonies can still be scheduled at either the courthouse or NE Branch by appointment on Valentine’s Day. This ensures that every couple can find a moment to celebrate their love, no matter their preference.
