Wanting family member to be Ordained Minister wedding is in Florida

Morgan, on August 19, 2020 at 1:26 PM Posted in Florida Planning 0 2
We want my FH’s brother in law to marry us as we are very close to him and he is a good public speaker. Does anyone know in Florida how to become an Ordained Minister? Specifically in Sarasota County? I tried calling the county and they had no idea they just said it has to be either an Ordained Minister or a Priest/Minister affiliated with a religious institution.


I have had a ton of friends officiate weddings in Florida and they all became Ordained Ministers online but they married people in a different county from where I am getting married. I am trying to figure out if it is per state or per county. My biggest fear is it not being legal.

    Contact the marriage license office. They will tell you what the requirements are to be ordained as well as any legal phrasing that must be included in the ceremony.
