Utah Marriage Statistics

A year of weddings, one square per day

A calendar of the whole year, one month per block. Darker means more couples married that day: Friday and Saturday show up as two dark stripes, and the pale bottom row is Sunday, the day couples avoid. Hover any day for the exact count.

Faded cells are the current month: those counts are provisional and still filling in as the county publishes records. Empty cells are days that haven't happened yet.
