In Louisiana, becoming a licensed minister typically involves affiliating with a recognized religious organization and obtaining ordination through that body. While the state does not issue clergy licenses, ministers may need to register with local authorities for marriage solemnization or other duties.
Officiating weddings is something that few states allow notaries to do. Florida, South Carolina, Montana, Nevada, Maine and Tennessee are the only states where a notary public can officiate a wedding. If youre marrying in any other state, a notary generally cant officiate.
An unused marriage license expires 30 days from the date of issue. A Louisiana marriage license is valid only for ceremonies performed in the state of Louisiana. if not used, it must be returned to the Clerks Office to be renewed.
Short version is: get ordained online, have your credentials and a letter of good standing mailed to you, fill out the Louidiana Marriage Officiant Registration Affidavit and get it docHubd, and take all of that to the local Parish Clerk (recommended that you do it a month in advance to be safe).
The official legal paper, the State of Louisiana Certificate of Marriage, is to be returned to the Clerks Office within ten days of the ceremony to be recorded. A certified copy of the official license will then be mailed to the couple (if not returned in person) for name change and legal purposes.
