RCW 26.04.060 "A marriage solemnized before any person professing to be a minister or a priest of any religious denomination in this state or professing to be an authorized officer thereof, is not void, nor shall the validity thereof be in any way affected on account of any want of power or authority in such person, if such marriage be consummated with a belief on the part of the persons so married, or either of them, that they have been lawfully joined in marriage."

So the recipe for getting married by any old non-authorized officiant is to have one of you arrange for it and tell the other one that it's on the level. Then one of you will have a belief that you have been lawfully joined, and thus you will be. It's beautifully circular.

The zenith of the mass marriage event will be when we force the two butchest Huskies on the UW football team to totally exchange rings, kisses, and workout tips in a shotgun ceremony witnessed by a packed stadium. The unhappy, yet totally ripped and hawt-as-hell couple then will be ferried to a lavender farm on San Juan Island for a honeymoon filled with painting, bicycling, and long walks holding hands on the beach at sunset.

Also, fwiw, Ron Sims is an ordained minister. And a great guy. Book early, the best go quickly.

But have another wedding and invite your str8 friends and relatives. Those who show will be glad. Those who don't will send presents you can probably use anyway.
