Getting hitched can already be an expensive endeavor, and thanks to the Dane Country Board, it will get a bit pricier.
The increase is the first one in over a decade, according to the Cap Times, with fees that will rise by $30 to $150.
The Dane County Board approved an ordinance amendment to raise the price on Thursday.
The reason given for the increase is Dane County’s $15 million deficit it faces next year. The board also said that due to inflation, the price should have risen to $175.
