Can you perform a marriage ceremony in costume as Santa Claus? Can you get married dressed as Santa and Mrs. Claus? You most certainly can – anywhere in the United States – because no state has a clause (or any laws) that regulates what you wear, whether you're getting married or performing the ceremony.🎅🏻🎄

As long as the marriage license is signed using your real name, it's completely legal! 💍

Heck, you could even perform the ceremony in the n**e ... but you might want to discuss it with the couple first. 😳

This article is a few years old, so we refreshed it and updated it a bit. Getting asked to perform a wedding for the first time progresses very quickly from "Sure, I'll do it!" to "Yipes, what do I actually do?" That means it's time for some wedding minister training – a basic boot camp for the first-time Marriage Officiant.
