Dakota County Fair Is Hosting Free Wedding Ceremonies

Are you engaged? Are you thinking of popping the question? Worried about the wedding budget? Here is a great solution - if you are willing.

NO MORE BUDGET BUSTER - GET MARRIED AT THE FAIR

The Dakota County Fair is offering weddings for FREE!

Looking for a wedding that’s unforgettable? The Minnesota Judicial Branch is offering FREE wedding ceremonies during the Dakota County Fair! Whether you’re planning to elope or celebrate with family and friends, this is a one-of-a-kind way to tie the knot.

With this situation, you don't have to worry about any sort of budget or setting things up. You can then just focus on either the reception and/or the honeymoon.

YOU DO NEED TO DO A LITTLE PLANNING - YOU NEED TO RESERVE A TIME

You do have to do a little planning ahead of time - you do need to contact Dakota County to reserve a time. It's like going to the courthouse to get married, only they are bringing it to the fair instead.

IT WOULD BE A GREAT WEDDING STORY TO TELL FAMILY AND FRIENDS

There are several times that you can choose from anytime during the fair that runs from August 10th through the 16th. It would definitely be something to tell the grandkids (eventually) about how Grandma and Grandpa got married at the fair! Or, just a fun wedding story. When someone asks how and where you got married, you would probably have the most unique story.
