The problem is that neither he nor we want him to do the ceremony (not that he wouldn't do a good job) -- actually, he really doesn't want to do the ceremony, and that's OK with us. I also can't think of anyone I'd want to have ordained specifically to do our wedding. A sibling is too close (and we have too many to choose from), pretty much all of our friends are already in the wedding, and everyone else, I really can't imagine doing it. Other family members are too distant. I don't know, I just can't come up with a good candidate.<BR/><BR/>pcj: I've never heard of civil celebrants, but I just sent an email off to find out more info!Holly Cummingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11448257097008782861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7661716507773664017.post-22458985748421646042008-10-13T22:47:00.000-04:002008-10-13T22:47:00.000-04:00Oh man.

Most probably charge a hire fee than a JoP, but their whole job is to work with you to design the ceremony you want with nothing (religious or otherwise) required.
