Are you asking a generic "Who can marry us?" question, or a specific to your area? This is an international board, so we can't really give you specifics like a local LI board can. GL

Have you considered having a friend or family member get ordained online to perform your ceremony? I believe the "Universal Life Church" is the easiest place to go through for this, but I don't have any personal experience... that is just what I've heard from others. There are lots of officiants that advertise on my local Craigslist, so you might check there. A lot of them are more non-denominational or even non-religious so it may be more what you are looking for.

If you have someone ordained, as pp suggested, you'll need to make sure it's legal, as in many states it is not (including the one I live in).  Basically, you just need to post this on your local board for more help than from this International board.

I asked the Chaplain at work to officiate, since we do not currently belong to a particular church.
