Just the Paperwork
Legal Ceremonies with Merry Fairy – Your Trusted Wedding Officiant Team in Ottawa
Private. Personalized. Professional. We handle the legal side, so you can focus on love.
Planning a destination wedding or simply looking for a private, no-fuss legal ceremony?
We’ve got you covered! As certified legal wedding officiants based in Ottawa, Ontario, we’re here to make your marriage license paperwork process smooth, stress-free, and entirely on your terms. We are authorized to perform legal marriages in both Ontario and Quebec.
Understanding the Legal Ceremony:
The Marriage Act requires a short verbal ceremony in front of two witnesses. During this, you’ll each state that you accept one another as legal spouses in the presence of a certified officiant. After that, we’ll complete the wedding officiant paperwork and sign the required documents to make your marriage official.
Getting legally married in Ontario or Quebec requires a few simple — but essential — steps. Here's what to expect:
- You’ll need a valid marriage license.
- The ceremony must take place in front of two witnesses.
- You’ll exchange a brief verbal consent to marry.
- Both partners must show valid government photo ID.
- Ceremony follows Ontario or Quebec legal requirements.
- We submit your marriage license after the ceremony.
- You'll receive clear confirmation of date and location.
- A certified officiant (that’s us!) will guide you through the legal paperwork for marriage process.
