COVID-19 Update:
WE ARE STILL OPEN FOR BUSINESS, BY APPOINTMENT! There is currently no limit on the number of people who can gather. Why Choose Wedded Your Way? We officiate for you at any location in the greater Portland-Vancouver metro areas. We also offer a small Portland wedding chapel where we can both host and officiate elopements and weddings with a handful of guests. For more information, please see our chapel website, www.weddedyourwaychapel.com. Experience makes all the difference. We have been performing over a hundred weddings a year for nearly two decades. The wedding officiant is the most essential element of the day. Without one you would not have a legal marriage. Without a good one, you might even have a complete disaster on your hands! With our officiant, you can rest easy, knowing we will stand beside you and lend an air of calm confidence to what may be the most important--and hopefully, the happiest--day of your life! We are happy to officiate ALL kinds of ceremonies, large or small, religious or not, simple, elaborate, creative, interfaith, multi-cultural, same sex, or whatever your two hearts desire. Counseling is not required before you use us as your Portland Oregon wedding minister. The first meeting is at no cost or obligation. Last-minute ceremonies are welcome and often possible.

Location, Location...
If you don't have a location yet, we can help you with information on very lovely places around the Portland metro area. We serve the greater Portland Metropolitan and Vancouver, Washington areas, and are happy to come to you. A small travel fee will apply for locations outside a 15-mile radius from our office/chapel.
Last-Minute Ceremony?
No problem as long as we have room in our calendar. Last-minute ceremonies are welcome and often possible--although please bear in mind that both Oregon and Washington state require a three-day waiting period after you have purchased a marriage license. Oregon is willing to waive it (ask them when you take out the license), while Washington State is not. You must have a license issued by the State in which you are being married. Check out our Marriage License page and feel free to contact your local County Clerk.
Using Your Own Officiant?
A popular trend is to have a friend or family member officiate for you. If you choose to do this, please make sure they understand how to correctly process the license so in the end you have a legal marriage. Otherwise it will be just a big, expensive party! If you or your friend/officiant need help coming up with a wedding script, we will be pleased to write a customized one for a small ceremony writing fee. And if said officiant/friend gets cold feet or for any reason finds that they are not up to the task, give us a call. We may be able to bail you out! 😊
Same-Sex Marriages
The dominos have fallen! As of May 19, 2014, same-sex unions became legal in the State of Oregon. As of December 9, 2012, same-sex unions are legal in the State of Washington! And as of 2015, as most everyone knows, they are legal throughout the entire country--at least for now. Let us hope this right does not get overturned! As Gay Friendly officiants, we are happy to serve same-sex couples in our Wedding Chapel, or we will come help you tie the knot in your Portland or Vancouver greater metro area home or other venue. The Marriage License application process is the same for all couples. See our Marriage License page.
Other Ceremonies
We will assist in all kinds of ceremonies: commitment ceremonies, same-sex, vow renewals, baby namings or baby blessings, house blessings, and Memorials or Funerals. If you have an idea of what type of celebration your heart desires, will be able to help you create it.
