I've been so ...SNAP! This is what we're doing too.<br /><br />I've been so jealous reading all these American blogs about getting friends ordained in the Universal Life Church or having quaker style weddings and doing everything EXACTLY how you want to, coz you can.<br /><br />Here in Australia none of that is legal though so we're going to have a super basic ceremony at the wedding registrar with just our parents present, we'll get dressed up but not in what we are wearing at our wedding wedding, and no exchange of rings - just the legal wording required and signing of the certificate. And then we are going to ask a friend to officate at our WEDDING and we're going to write the entire ceremony from scratch!abluebirdbridehttp://abluebirdbride.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1819388586691204438.post-13479509972025216892009-05-25T20:42:56.571-04:002009-05-25T20:42:56.571-04:00In Arizona, any one ordained as a minister can ma...In Arizona, any one ordained as a minister can marry you. We were able to get ordained through www.firstnationministry.com for $45.00. I would be honored if two of my closest friends were to ask me to marry them, no matter how busy I was. I'd ask your friend.

IMO you want someone that is around the two of you and knows you well to perform your ceremony - as it is the most precious part of the whole wedding! <br /><br />so we're having my fiance's uncle (a former priest..long story!) and a family friend who is a judge perform a joint ceremony for us.chris @ court + hudsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09405685708735333068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1819388586691204438.post-63530575791389324962009-05-25T18:21:35.350-04:002009-05-25T18:21:35.350-04:00I think as long as all parties are comfortable wit...I think as long as all parties are comfortable with it, what does it matter? I think its amazing that you can have someone who knows you do the ceremony. As for the friend with the crazy schedule, are you sure they wouldn't mind? I mean, I personally would find the time because to me it would be a HUGE honor. But that is my personal opinion.

In CA, they have to become ordained, but can do it online. Simple. I think it varies by state though.<br /><br />Having an old flame do the marrying seems a little awkward to me, but it probably depends on how all parties feel about it, and how much you dated in college.
