Admission to the event is by donation only, with all proceeds going to charity, including Basics for Babies.

Pop Up Weddings is once again hosting “Love in the Square” at event in Robson Square where couples can take advantage of complimentary elopements on February 12th. Organizers will also be accepting donations in order to donate the raised funds to a local charity.

Weddings at Robson Square Valentine’s Weekend

Last year’s event saw 77 couples tie the knot and this year they are expecting to marry 100 couples or more! Vow renewals are also welcome.

Registration will start at 10:00am and ceremonies will begin to take place starting at 11:00am, continuing to 6:00pm. The event will be first come, first served but they will do their best to marry everyone that comes down that day.

Couples only need themselves as well as a properly filled out marriage license. Having some witnesses is always a good idea but not 100% necessary. Be sure to dress for the weather. New this year will be added decor, floral arrangements, and photography teams to capture the special day. Follow Love in the Square for more information.
