Who's Officiating Your Wedding?

Are you hiring an officiant? Asking a family member or friend to officiate? A legal official at the courthouse? Or having a church official perform the ceremony? How did you decide who to choose for this role?

    We are getting legally married at the courthouse so we don't have to mess with the marriage license, and then having a friend "officiating" the ceremony we are doing in front of our family/friends. (The courthouse thing is a secret Smiley winking )

    That's a good idea! Are you going to the courthouse on the same day as the ceremony in front of your family and friends?

    No, we will do the courthouse wedding sometime this summer, and our wedding in front of everyone will be in October.

    Very cool! Do you plan to celebrate both anniversaries? Or just one of them?

    We aren't quite sure yet, the only requirement is they are willing to dress up as the scientist guy from the original 1954 Godzilla movie with the eye patch lol

    Lol, that will be a very unique outfit for the officiant! I love how you and your fiance are incorporating your shared love of Godzilla into your wedding!

    It is just a labcoat and an eye patch. We can probably get that stuff around Halloween. But yeah, we are kind of going all out with Godzilla lol.

    We are being married at our parish church by the pastor. We have lived in this town and this parish for nearly 40 years, and I am in the church choir and the featured soloist there for nearly 15 years. PS: the church's Choir/Music Director/Organist is my closest and dearest friend and she will be my MOH.
