Can a Wedding Officiant Legally Marry Us?

Whether a wedding celebrant can legally marry you depends on the laws and regulations of the specific jurisdiction in which you are getting married. In many regions, wedding celebrants can obtain the legal authority to solemnize marriages, making the marriages we officiate legally binding. However, the rules and requirements regarding celebrants' legal authority can vary widely from place to place.

At Kismet Moment, I am an authorized minister ordained by the American Marriage Ministries. I adhere to all legal requirements like ensuring that you as a couple have a valid marriage license, completing and filing the necessary paperwork, and complying with any waiting periods or residency requirements.
