We take care of all the legal paperwork.<\/p>\n<p>The Esoteric Interfaith Church, Inc.\u00a0has always assisted our ordained ministers get their paperwork in line so they are able to officiate a wedding in any US State. Some States require more than the signed\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.northernway.org\/ordain.shtml\">Certificate of Ordination<\/a> from us, they require you to register first with them before you can perform\u00a0the marriage.<\/p>\n<p>We help you with all required paperwork. \u00a0 Nevada, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Hawaii, Virginia and cities like New York City and Washington, D.C. require extra paperwork before the minister is allowed to officiate weddings. There are other &#8220;picky&#8221; states, too, and we help you with all of them. \u00a0Our ministers and rabbis are able to legally officiate weddings in all 50 States.<\/p>\n<p>For example, we are notarizing a special Nevada affidavit to solemnize marriage for one of our ordained ministers. [Our Seminary also granted him a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.northernway.org\/phd\">PhD in Religious Studies<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.northernway.org\/degrees.html\">Doctor of Divinity<\/a>, but you don&#8217;t need a religious degree to legally perform a wedding. \u00a0All you need is your Certificate of Ordination such as those we give to those we ordain.]<\/p>\n<p>In Nevada, the minister who wants to perform a wedding there has to fill out extra paperwork and get a notarized affidavit from us. \u00a0 He was ordained as a minister and earned not only his PhD in Theology degree here, but also a Doctor of Divinity years ago. But now he wants to do weddings. So we\u00a0got him all\u00a0set up.<\/p>\n<p>Many ministers also need to be what&#8217;s called a &#8220;visiting minister&#8221; when they officiate an out-of-state wedding. We also help with that paperwork. We just got an ordained minister in Maryland all squared away with Virginia because\u00a0he will be performing a marriage as a visiting minister. We contacted the court directly, found out exactly what was needed to show the Clerk of the Court in Virginia, which is\u00a0a Letter of Good Standing from us on church letterhead, copy of his credentials from us, etc.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Register as an Ordained Minister to Officiate Weddings in Nevada<\/h2>\n<p>Clark County Nevada and Washoe County both have the paperwork you need right online. \u00a0All you have to do is fill in the blanks, then print it out. We will send you the link, if you can&#8217;t find it. One page however is for us, the church that ordains you. It&#8217;s called the Affidavit of Authority to Solemnize Marriages in Nevada. The church\u00a0fills our page out, gets it notarized and sends to you to submit all at once with the pages you fill out.<\/p>\n<h3>Get Ordained with a nationwide church that supports you<\/h3>\n<p>If you are thinking about getting ordained, starting your own church or wedding chapel, setting up a pastoral \/ spiritual counseling or healing practice, we have been helping clergy (ministers, rabbis, chaplains, priests) with their paperwork for 26 years, and have been here online since 1999.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wedding season is here! \u00a0Get ordained in time to officiate marriages, become a wedding officiant today.
