Rockwall County designated as Texas' official Marriage Capital for 10 years.
The Texas Legislature designates Rockwall County as the official Marriage Capital of Texas. This recognition highlights the county's long-standing appeal as a wedding destination, dating back to the 1940s and 1950s when unique practices, such as issuing marriage licenses around the clock, made it popular. The designation acknowledges the county's continued allure, including its elegant marriage certificates and diverse wedding venues. This title will remain in effect until the 10th anniversary of the resolution's passage.
