My Friends Want Me to Marry Them! I have two dear friends who are getting married July 27. The other day they call me to ask a "favor". Turns out their favor is to have me perform their marriage!! It appears that in California, anyone 18 or older can get deputized as a commissioner of civil marriages.
I immediately asked them if this was a joke or if this is an episode of Friends... they didn't laugh either. I agreed, and told them I was honored to do this! I'm excited! Now, I have to search the internet and find out exactly what I have to do to get this thing going... or turn to my fellow orgers: Who can help me with information on this?  |

The title's a bit confusing
"Do you want to marry us?" "Both?"  | |

As far as who to ask, perhaps Lammastide can help you out.  RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

A friend of mine did this as well. Got "ordained" online and married a couple of friends of ours. It's really sweet. |

Just remember if you don't like their choice of words during their vows, you can't snip them or ban them from the ceremonies. | |

I gotta say, by the title I thought your friends wanted you to get married to them. I'm like June7 is hot stuff for all his friends to want to marry him.
 I'm firmly planted in denial | |
