So we are really wanting our good friend to marry us!! And I've heard there are officiants out there that will sit during the ceremony and allow the person.

Anybody in the lower Mainland preferably surrey/maple ridge/langley (wedding in Langley BC) Abbotsford that has done this?

We have contacted a few and they don't allow it Smiley sad


Thank you!!!

    We are doing the legal stuff a couple days before the wedding, and having his best friend "marry us" at the wedding.

    Check out officiants on All Seasons Weddings Smiley smile

    Not 100% sure about BC, but in Ontario there's the option of having an officiant present at your ceremony only to sign all the paperwork and take care of the legalities. Your friend would still be performing the ceremony.

    I was looking up ordained officiants. Your friend is going to go through the process of the officiant license. There can't be anyone on the side to guide or watch them on the side. There are laws to follow and the ministry that will have them in the registry of the system.
