[QUOTE="mstang67chic, post: 289475, member: 2459"] I don't have a problem with someone doing that IF....it's not a religious thing. I don't really know a lot about getting certified online to perform marriages but if it was just a legal thing...not a problem for me. But if it's a religious thing, I might have some reservations. I know when husband and I were planning our wedding, neither one of us belonged to a church. Either of us hadn't really been raised in a church although we did both attend various churches as kids. Me on my own and husband with his grandmother. But, I thought it would be nice to get married in a church and do it "right", you know? At the time though, we checked with husband's grandmother's pastor but he was going to be on vacation or something and couldn't do it. I had been baptized Catholic and briefly thought about doing the classes and getting confirmed but I didn't do it. I knew I would only be doing it so I could get married in the Church and I just didn't feel right about it. I think it would have been neat to have a close friend or family member perform the ceremony. The certification process though, I think would just depend on the circumstances. We actually wound up having the then mayor perform the ceremony (outside wedding in a local park) because husband had known him for years and the man had been friends with my father in law. [/QUOTE]
