St. Valentine was a priest in Rome. He was sent to prison by Emperor Claudius II.
Saint Valentine secretly performed weddings for soldiers, but soldiers were not allowed to get married.
In addition he gave mass for Christians, who were persecuted under the Roman Empire.
Some stories say that the young couples, who Valentine had married, gave flowers and letters to Valentine when they visited him in the prison.
