Pleasant Valley, NY NOT Offering Marriage License Applications

According to the Town of Pleasant Valley's Facebook page, the Town Clerk’s office will NOT be accepting any new marriage license applications for the next month. The town posted,

"The Town Clerk’s office will NOT be accepting any new marriage license applications from September 10th, 2024 thru October 15th, 2024. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause."

 

It's unclear why the town has temporally halted the new marriage license applications but what is clear is that some residents (who aren't fans of marriage...LOL) took to the comment section of the post to poke fun at the change saying things like, "I believe this is due to the statistics, that 100% of all divorces, start with marriage😉", "Maybe it’ll make SOMEONE THINK TWICE", and "Take it as a sign people!! No license and no wedding!"
