Outer Space Wedding Ceremonies

I guess that I am just an "Earth-bound" Officiant. I go where people hire me to marry them. Unlike Sir Richard Branson (of Virgin Galactic) who is creating the pathway to marry couples in outer space, my feet are firmly planted on the ground. I know that I would be fine with performing nuptials on a boat, ship, plane, or other unique locations. I have no fear of heights although I am unsure about weightlessness and the whole zero-gravity thing.

I am sure that in the years to come, the “location” question for the ceremony may take on a whole new meaning. “So would you like me to perform the ceremony on Earth, in the atmosphere, on the Moon, or somewhere in the great beyond?” I would definitely have to rethink the Officiant rates on a few of those options.

For right now, I am happy on Earth offering customized wedding ceremonies to blissful couples.
