When the "post your pic" topic found it's way back to the top of the pile I noted a few folks had performed weddings and were ordained via one method or another. So for giggles I thought it would be fun to see who here is ordained, internet or otherwise.

Myself, I am recently ordained in the Church of the Latter-Dude. My wife finds this oddly amusing. http://dudeism.com/

I've been thinking about being ordained through the state. It would be good for other Wiccans in the area.

Ordained deacon in the Church of the Great Outdoors. http://www.thechurchofthegreatoutdoors.com/

I wouldn't dare perform a wedding, if they didn't do anything to me why should I do that to them?

I am ordained and registered with the state of Ohio to perform weddings only (no official last rites! )

I have one wedding under my belt

Dudeist Priest. In Illinois you just register in the county a ceremony is to be performed (technically, if both parties complete a marriage certificate and file it, they are married, whether there is an officiant or not). If you think it happened, it happened.

Or, to put it another way, "If you will it, it is no dream."

I was too, back in the days before the internet. I have no idea where my certificate is, so I don't know of it's still valid.

I'm 1 -1 on my nuptials record as a notary, having performed one wedding (GRM veterans Gabe and Noelle) and signed off on one divorce (thankfully, a totally different couple that really, really needed to not be married).

The wife is, one of those on line things. She does 30 to 40 weddings a year. At $150 to $300 a pop, that's real money, so I'm not complaining.

Apparently Charleston is a destination wedding spot and her website gets a fair ammount of traffic.

My sister was ordained to marry my wife and I. Still have no idea what website she got it though. I may be married in the church of Google for all I know.
