I called my local county (Catawba) to seek if it would be ok to have a friend get ordained online as a minister and perform the wedding ceremony. She stated that it will be determined by his/her title and if they will be recognized as a member of the church to perform the wedding.
So -- this would mean that I get a friend according to the statement abot that I can have him or her be ordained by this site
ULC then they will be a recognized member who can then perform the ceremony for us?
Does anyone know? I know it has been discussed over and over but I'm still not clear about it?
Thanks!!!
