Wedding "Officiant" Needed

Post by csailer223 » Sat Jul 01, 2017 7:11 am

Fellow burners,

My fiance and I will be having a wedding ceremony on the playa during this year's burn. For logistical reasons, we don't think we'll be able to register with city hall and pick up our marriage certificate ahead of time so this likely won't be an "official" wedding. Nonetheless, we would love for someone to help us mark the occasion by still officiating the wedding, and celebrating this day with us :)

If anyone is interested, please let me know! Thank you, and excited to see you all on the playa

Hello there.

I am a wedding officiant and have done a few weddings. Would love to do this as a gift. What I lack in experience, I make up for in creativity and passion. Love doing weddings and to do one at BM would be amazing.

I have seen others on here that have been doing it a long time and I think there are theme camps dedicated to this cause.

But if I can help, I would enjoy it and do a great job.

If you want a legal Playa marriage, and your Officiant is NOT a Nevada Resident (with a license to perform marriages on file with his or her Nevada County),
Your Officiant will need to get a single use license to perform the marriage from the Pershing County Marriage license department. It generally takes three weeks to get this processed. And You also need to get the actual Marriage license before heading to the Burn.
The County Clerk’s office is in Lovelock (east of the Burning Man site on I-80) at 398 Main St. It’s open normal office hours Monday through Friday.

I've performed several playa weddings and have a decree notarized by the Black Rock City Notary authorizing me to officiate them. I also have my own suit and megaphone. Happy to schedule a sunset vow session or just stop by Various Delights, somewhere around 3:30/I, for the "city hall" approach.
