MILWAUKEE (AP) — The Milwaukee County Courthouse is among those bustling with brides and grooms on this unique Wednesday.

At least 27 couples are getting hitched at the courthouse on the 12th day of the 12th month of 2012. There will be no excuses for forgetting their anniversary date.

The county clerk says about six couples normally get married at the Milwaukee County Courthouse on a typical Wednesday.

At the Brown County Courthouse, a Wednesday wedding is usual. But clerk Julio Garcia said five couples have signed up to tie the knot on 12-12-12.
