Getting Started

 

I take great pride in helping you through the marriage process. Before you can be married in Alberta, there are two things you must do- get a license and choose a marriage officiant.

 

Choosing a Marriage Officiant

As an Alberta Marriage Commissioner, I am appointed by the Government of Alberta with legal authority to perform civil marriage ceremonies in Alberta. Please contact me to confirm my availability. We will arrange a meeting so I can hear your story and discuss the words and feelings you wish to include in your ceremony.  Your ideal ceremony awaits!

 

Getting a Marriage Licence

You do not have to be an Alberta resident to be married in Alberta. A marriage licence shows the marriage commissioner that a couple meets the laws to be married in Alberta. To be married, a couple must apply for a Marriage Licence at an Alberta registry agent office. The license is valid for three months.
