There was no charge, but couples were asked to make a $50 contribution to the American Heart Association's Go Red for Women campaign.

At City Market, Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard presided over a group ceremony for those who were there to renew their wedding vows on Valentine's Day.

“It’s a great moment, a lot of people have been married a lot of years,” Ballard said. “We did ours on Jan. 2. It was our 30th anniversary, and I think it struck a chord. And they asked us if we could do vows at the City Market for anyone who wanted to do it, and I said, ‘Yes.’”

The Marion County Clerk's Office announced Thursday afternoon that more than $3,150 was raised for the American Heart Association's Go Red for Women campaign at the wedding extravaganza where 74 couples were married.
