Despite the unpredictable weather, love won’t wait in Orange County! Orange County Board of Supervisors Chair Doug Chaffee and Clerk-Recorder Hugh Nguyen are joining forces to bring mobile wedding ceremonies to Ralph B. Clark Regional Park in Buena Park for the first time.
To make this special occasion even more memorable, Chair Chaffee will fully sponsor the marriage license and civil ceremony fees for two lucky couples who have already been selected. He will also personally officiate both weddings, allowing the couples to tie the knot at no cost.
“Orange County's regional parks are places where families come together and create lasting memories,” said Chair Doug Chaffee, Fourth District Supervisor. “I'm proud to sponsor and officiate these wedding ceremonies. This partnership with Clerk-Recorder Hugh Nguyen gives couples an opportunity to celebrate their special day in one of our beautiful parks. It's a wonderful way to bring our community together and create memories that will last a lifetime.”
“El Niño or not, love ties the knot!” said Orange County Clerk-Recorder Hugh Nguyen. “Getting married is one of life's most memorable milestones, and we're excited to bring our marriage services directly to the community. Through Clerk-Recorder on Wheels, we're making it easier for couples to celebrate their special day outside our traditional offices. I want to thank Chair Chaffee for sponsoring these ceremonies and helping make this wonderful occasion possible.”
The Clerk-Recorder on Wheels mobile unit will also be on-site to provide vital records services, fictitious business name (FBN) filings, and copies of property records to the public. Marriage services will be limited to the two preselected couples, and no walk-in marriage services will be available.
The wedding ceremonies will take place alongside Chair Chaffee's Fourth District Kids Fishing Derby, bringing together a day of love, family, and community. While young anglers cast their lines, couples will be tying the knot!
