This is nephew #1, he is the son of oldest brother. His girlfriend of several years is very close to me and she insisted that I perform the ceremony.
I may have mentioned this before; but let me restate this:
I am an ordained minister of Universal Life Church. I am legally entitled to perform the duties of a minister. I have officiated at three weddings already. It's an online church that is nondenominational. Coworkers asked me if I had to take a bible quiz or exam or something, but no, I just enrolled online. I have the title of Druid in the church. Crazy huh...
So on June 18, 2011; gay, pagan, Druid Uncle Jim will be preforming a wedding in Utah for two strong Mormon families.
My nephew and niece are not religious and haven't been in a church in years, so they're excited about it.
Oh... fun times ahead! LOL
This is the first wedding I performed. It was a toga wedding and I was dressed as a monk. There is more to the story than that... but it's NSFW. You'll have to email me if you want details. LOL
Ya gotta make life interesting!

That's cool and sweet at the same time... It's so nice of them to ask.
OK, you have me intrigued on the toga wedding and what happened then... Do you have visual aids?
I agree with Nik. Good for them for having you do it!! I'm sure it'll be a great experience for you all.
Yes, you can expect an email from me :-)
It is so cool that you can do this for them.
You are going to wear your Renny gear and kilt -- right?
And for the rest of you who want to do this for friends, depending upon where you live and the laws in your area, you can go to the Clerk-Recorder and get a one time permit to perform a ceremony.
