On the most romantic say of the year, several Bucks County couples came together in marriage in a unique ceremony. Madeleine Wright wrote about the unique ceremony for CBS Philadelphia.

Twenty-two couples decided to tie the knot together on the most romantic day of the year in a group wedding marriage ceremony in Doylestown.

Hundreds of guests watched couples patiently wait their turn to get married for free at Bucks County Courthouse on a beautiful Valentine’s Day. Among them were Philadelphia police officer Sharon Brambrinck and her fiancé, Christine Pruitt.

“I love her sense of humor, I love her smile,” said Brambrinck.

Vows and Valentines is part of the Weddings for Heroes program.

“It’s a tradition we started last year in our office,” said Linda Bobrin, of the Bucks County Register of Wills. “We do it for veterans and first responders on Veterans Day and we decided to open it up to the community for Valentine’s Day as well.”

More couples had applied to get married, but due to the lack of room, some had to be turned away.

“Initially, we were afraid nobody would apply,” said Bobrin. “We had no idea people would want to get married in a group like this. But it became extremely popular.”
