Need officiant... Help!!!

We are probably going to need to find a new officiant, and the wedding is in September.  We were going to have my FI's brother's MIL do it, but now we find out that she has a certain way she likes to do the ceremony, and we've already spent many hours creating the ceremony that we really want. 

Does anyone have any recommendations?  We want someone who is willing to work with us and go basically by what we've created.  It contains all the usual stuff, but we wrote it using a book about wedding ceremonies.  We are Christian, but nondenominational, and the ceremony is somewhat spiritual but definitely not denominational.

We're putting out feelers with friends... but we need to get this taken care of asap, so I thought I'd ask here, too.

Do you know if a minister who lives out of state can marry us in Georgia?

Thanks!!!

    I don't know if an out of state officiant is able to marry you in GA, but I can provide you a name of an officiant that may be able to help in ATL:

    Rev. Rick Prigmore

    **If he is booked, ask about about other Ministers he may know (they all have networks and have each other often as back-ups in case one is unable to perform the ceremony last minute)

    You can't have anyone perform your wedding other than Reverend Deanna Lancaster.  She is the best!  Absolutely amazing and reasonable.  Check out her reviews on Wedding Wire.

    We are Christian, but want something more like a civil service without all of the "submits" and "obeys" - bleh!  We are using Reverend Sam Mixon and he is fabulous, affordable, and very flexible in making the ceremony exactly what you want.

    You have to call Rev. H. Rob Clark. He is AMAZING!!! His price his very reasonable, and he is personable - he'll create your ceremony the way you want. Rev. Clark did my best freinds wedding, my aunts wedding and he is doing mine - he is awesome.
