A marriage officiant is a person with the legal authority to perform marriages.
Alberta offers two kinds of marriage officiants - religious and civil. The religious and civil ceremonies are both legal marriages in Alberta. There are no legal differences between getting married by a religious officiant and marriage commissioner.
- religious ceremonies are performed by a religious representative or clergy person registered with Vital Statistics
- civil marriages are performed by marriage commissioners appointed by the Alberta government to perform civil ceremonies for the community and area in which they reside
Marriage Commissioner
- use the Marriage Commissioner Listing below to locate a marriage commissioner in your area
- all registry agents can also provide a list of marriage commissioners
Religious Officiant
- as there are over 10,000 clergy registered in Alberta, a public list is not available
- to find an authorized religious representative/clergy person, contact the applicable church or religious organization
