SoCal Officiant Is Performing $14 Marriage Ceremonies On Valentine's Day
A SoCal officiant will perform $14 marriage ceremonies at his Long Beach wedding chapel.
()
This Valentine's Day, a Southern California officiant is offering $14 weddings at his Long Beach chapel for happy couples looking to tie the knot.
From 10 a.m. until 8 p.m. Valentine's Day, couples may show up to the Cute Little Wedding Chapel in Long Beach to declare their love for each other. And for real, you and your significant other can walk in and have your ceremony on the spot — or you can call ahead to see if there are scheduled time slots still open.
At county offices, officials are anticipating a bigger-than-usual influx of happy couples on Valentine's Day — after all, the holiday falls on a Friday this year. And it's a three-day weekend for those who have President's Day off on Monday.
Los Angeles County registrar offices will perform same-day marriage ceremonies at its Norwalk office. Licenses cost $91, and ceremonies cost $35.

GO DEEPER
At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
