Hey all! My spouse and I are not religious, and are looking to discreetly show that in our wedding ceremony (aka mentions of religion and god would be scrubbed from the stuff that is said, and we are doing our own vows). I'm curious about the logistics of this, if anything. Also for our officiant, my spouse's younger brother got his license when he was in Hawaii although I don't know if that counts for BC? I'd wondering how we can check and see if he would be able to qualify as an officiant for us and if it would be legal. If not we can look up one to use but if anyone knows of one in PG that would be fine with doing a non-religious ceremony that would be good to know about.
Otherwise, any tips or tricks for such a wedding? Most of our close friends are of the same thoughts as us but most of our family vaguely considers themselves religious, but I don't think anyone is going to raise a stink about it during, maybe a comment or two afterwards. If anyone has had such a wedding, please let me know!
tl;dr : 1) How do scrub religious affiliations from ceremony? 2) Would my spouse's younger brother's Officiant license from Hawaii count in BC, if not is it easy to register as a one time thing? 3) Anyone know of any non-religious (or fine to do a ceremony as such) Officiants in Prince George, BC? 4) Any other tips for such a ceremony?
