Frequently asked questions

How do I find a marriage officiant near me in Ontario?
Pick your city from the list below to see marriage officiants registered to serve that area, each shown with the religious or civil body they are affiliated with. Many couples also check a nearby city, since an officiant one community over is often happy to travel for a wedding.
Who is allowed to perform a marriage in Ontario?
In Ontario a marriage can be solemnized either by a registered religious officiant or by a civil official such as a judge, justice of the peace, or municipal clerk. Every person in this directory appears on the official provincial list of registered marriage officiants. Always confirm an officiant is still registered before you book.
What does an officiant's affiliation mean?
The affiliation is the religious denomination, ministry, or civil body that registered the officiant with the Province of Ontario. It tells you the tradition an officiant works within, which helps couples find someone whose ceremony style and beliefs match their own. Many officiants also perform non-denominational and interfaith ceremonies, so ask about your specific wishes.
