Indebted couples rejoice! Pop Up Weddings BC will be hosting Love in the Square at Robson Square tomorrow, February 12, starting at 11 a.m. and continuing until 6 p.m. This express elopement service gives couples young and old a chance to tie the knot for free-ish — a $20 donation is encouraged — amidst a romantic atmosphere complete with a wedding arch, floral arrangements and envious, single, lonely onlookers.
Dispose of that expensive, debt-inducing, white wedding of your dreams and realign your expectations by swinging by for what is sure to be an afternoon filled with romance. The only requirements are a properly filled out marriage license, a minimum $20 donation and a willing significant other — this last one being the hardest to acquire by the 10 a.m. registration deadline.
If the prospect of getting married is far beyond your current social reach — as it is for the seemingly scarce number of single people in this city — consider coming by for an hour or two to gaze upon couples whose love lives have not been crippled by the city’s harsh dating politics.
