For those looking to tie the knot on what many consider to be the most romantic day of the year, look no further. This upcoming Valentine’s Day, Orange County Clerk-Recorder Hugh Nguyen will be offering extended hours at his offices in Anaheim, Laguna Hills and at the Old County Courthouse in Santa Ana. Instead of its normal closing hours, the department will close at 5:30 pm to issue marriage licenses and perform marriage ceremonies.
This year’s extended hours fall on a Friday which increases the potential for the department to break its Valentine’s Day record of 266 couples married and 310 licenses issued in a single day back in 2014.
