While most of our Celebrants primarily take a humanist approach, some also embrace performing inclusive secular, inter-religious, or other non-religious services. For individuals from differing religious and cultural backgrounds, Humanist Celebrants can be the perfect alternative. Humanist Celebrants are generally recognized in all states and many countries, being accorded the same rights and privileges granted by law to priests, ministers, and rabbis of traditional theistic religions. However, marriage laws vary by state and county in the United States. We suggest contacting your local county clerk’s office for the most accurate legal information.
