If you’re looking to tie the knot, you can no longer exchange your vows before a minister who was ordained through an online service.

Staring July 1, state law will prohibit persons who received online ordinations from officiating wedding ceremonies. Under present law, anyone performing a marriage must be an ordained minister, priest, pastor, preacher, rabbi or spiritual leader or be a licensed justice of the piece. However, ordinations had become so easy to come by that thousands of people had gotten their licenses online by simply going to a website and paying a few dollars to be ordained.

The new law does not grandfather in the old online ordinations meaning those who got their ordination online are restricted from performing any future marriages. State legislators, city council members and police chaplains will continue to be able to do marriages.

Marriages made by officiants who got their licenses online are considered legal up until the July 1 effective date of the new law.
