Will Married by AE Officiate Any Wedding?
As a Christian minister, I believe that marriage is a sacred institution designed by God. Married by AE firmly holds on to the biblical principles of marriage.
We are always available to work with couples to determine the level of religious content they wish to include – or exclude – from their ceremony.
