An older couple smiling while standing in front of a big building.
An older couple smiles after emerging from the County Courthouse with their marriage certificate.
The building might not be a County Courthouse. Even if it looks like a government building, it could be a federal courthouse, a city hall, etc. Any paper they are holding might not be a marriage certificate.  It could be a birth certificate, the title on their home that they just paid off, etc.
