In short. a Marriage Officiant is a person authorized by a provincial governing body, to legally perform marriages within a certain province. An offical Wikipedia document does exist on this subject and is located here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage_officiant
There currently exists two types of Marriage Officiants:
My experience and educational backgrounds are extensive:
In the Province of Alberta, same gender marriage is not specifically recognized in current legislation, but this legislation is overridden by the Federal Civil Marriage Act. According to the Act, same sex marriage is legal, but religious officials are free to refuse to solemnize a marriage that is not in accordance with their religious beliefs.
The procedure for same sex couples is the same as that for a heterosexual couple. If you and your same sex partner are considering marriage, you may want to consult a registry agent to ensure they will issue you a marriage license.
It’s highly suggested that bookings be made at least six months to one and half years in advance.
A Marriage License is valid for 90 days.
Alberta Vital Statistics maintains a record (registration) of all marriages that occur in Alberta and can only issue certificate/documents for events that occurred in Alberta. Marriage Certificates are issued using the information from the original Registration of Marriage, completed at the time of marriage. The appropriate form must be completed and submitted through an authorized registry agent in Alberta. Please see samples provided on the Alberta Vital Statistics website.
