Rietta, I am not an attorney, so I would advise you to call one or at least the clerk of courts for advice. However, I can tell you that when I asked about my own handfasting in Rutherford County, TN, I was told by the court that the state of Tennessee allows any individual "recognized as a leader of a congregation of any faith" to perform a marriage ceremony.
This does not involve any seminary ordination or special licensure, necessarily, but I would be as honest as I can if I were you. Wiccans generally recognize any priest or priestess of a second degree or higher to be appropriately ordained for a marriage ceremony. In the case of my wedding, we were provided with a blank marriage certificate when we purchased our marriage license. Our priestess performed the ceremony, my spouse and I signed the certificate along with our priestess and two witnesses, and the priestess as "officiant clergy" had to file the certificate at the county clerk's office the following Monday, and that was that...we were legally married.
I hope some of that helps you. If you know any attorneys, I'd still ask if I were you. But that was what happened for my wedding. BTW, still going strong after 10 years. Blessed be, and best of luck!
Good Day,
How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going
through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you
immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I
found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public
site.Could you please get back to me on:( mrsstellakwale588@gmail.com )
for the full details.
Have a nice day
Thanks God bless.
Mrs Stella.
