「2012宜蘭情人節」長135公尺的鵲橋，25日晚上在龍潭湖點亮，儘管天降大雨，仍然吸引不少有情人到場共度浪漫的時光。縣長林聰賢特別向夫人林素雲深情獻吻，並且送上玫瑰花，帶領一對對的有情人歡喜過鵲橋。
今年的宜蘭情人節，本就因為颱風關係延至25、26日舉行。首日原本白天放晴，不料，晚上7點臨開幕前，卻開始降下大雨，開幕秀因而稍微延後，但未久仍然開啟燦爛奪目的鵲橋燈光秀，讓龍潭湖的夜空更加美麗。
鵲橋開放通行後，同時啟動會場內所有的周邊活動，包括：定點街頭藝人、美食區、星空電影、礁溪鄉社區特色商區展售等等。
大會也特別規劃「愛情宣言」活動，利用空飄的大氣球以雷射特效，將民眾想表達的話呈現出來，有多人報名，其中不乏有求婚、示愛者。由於該活動需配合「夢想引擎」表演團隊的出場時間，民眾可到大會服務台登記報名。但因該表演團體的表演，必須在無風無雨的情況下，所以仍需視天候狀況而定。
「七夕鵲橋」是每年情人節的重頭戲，今年的鵲橋長度135公尺，算是歷年來以浮桶搭設最長的一座。

Wisconsin voters with disabilities should be able to cast their ballots electronically and failure to provide that option for the upcoming Aug. 13 primary and November presidential election is discriminatory and unconstitutional, a lawsuit filed Tuesday in the battleground state alleges.
