Pretty much what the title says. We are two nerds looking for someone in Maine (Midcoast area) who would be willing to re-marry us in Elvish during a role-playing themed wedding in the fall.

I’m in southern Maine. If no one else comes up let me know. I only know a few words in elvish but can learn. P.S. Tolkien is a huge part of my life and fully support you elvish wedding!!!

Y’know what, fellow nerds… I’m in.
I live in the County, but I’m willing to travel. I’ve done cosplay and wedding dresses for over twenty years.
I can absolutely do the service in Tolkien Elvish, or anything else you give me enough time to learn. Already an officiant through the Universal Life Church.

That sounds amazing! Makes me wish I learned the elvish languages from my roommate in college. She had many of them memorized.

You sound like the kind of person we need more of in Maine and the world at large.
If this goes over well, we could become like Vegas but for Elves!
Edit: instead of Elvis, it’d be Elvish!

Congrats! This sounds lovely!

If I bring snacks, can I come to this wedding? Because you people sound like my kind of folks.
Seriously, congratulations and your wedding is going to be gorgeous!

Sorry I only do Harry Potter weddings.

If he wears a costume, he'll be an Elvish impersonator!

If that first volunteer doesn't work out I'd also be happy to do the service in Elvish. I'm ordained and in the Portland area.

UGH! SO FUN I want to come! Let me know if you need a goblin-esqe fairy to do coat check.

How do I get invited to this wedding??
mhb20002000 t1_j4og2vm wrote
Any attorney (myself included) in Maine can marry a couple. I would be willing to marry you two. Even if you just need someone to do the legal paperwork and you have someone else do the ceremony. (I am willing to do the ceremony).

Also, all notary public’s in Maine can marry.

Even if they're already married? That seems like an odd exception to bigamy laws.

That sounds so wonderful!!
(Just saw you have also posted in the covidlonghaulers sub! Are you feeling any better?)
Josh_Hawley_ t1_j4ooe0m wrote
I’d do it too, but I will only speak in high elvish. No exceptions.

He could start a band made up of all Elvish impersonators. Pull heists. Of cretons. Crates of cretons.
It’s the stuff of nightmares.

I am 100% willing to do this if the other volunteers fall through. I’m busy in early-mid Oct though with other weddings.

I'm from the mid coast and want to be friends with you guys cause this is deff my kind of vibe!!

This is awesome. I’m in Maine and I do leather work, mostly armor. If you need anything for costumes let me know. I won’t charge you much, if anything.

This is so awesome. Wish I could come as the Dragonborn or a member of the dark brotherhood. 😃

Ok, I came to the comments because I thought there was no way that this couple would find what they were looking for.
All of you people are fantastic!!!

If you need/want a harpist who plays LOTR music, let me know ;)

These comments all made a lot more sense once I realized it said “Elvish” and not “Elvis”

Sounds like fun, you should film it with a little backstory, a script and a forest setting. I would bet you could find a local theater company that would love to help.
New-Vegetable-1274 t1_j4qpo8u wrote
A little off topic, I have never seen the modern trilogy but over time I've collected a half dozen DVDs from flea markets and Walmart. What is the correct order to watch them?
theresin t1_j4qwouk wrote
Damn, I only speak gutter Orcish - missed opportunity there.
All kidding aside, this is awesome. I hope this subreddit gets some pictures once this thing happens - and most of all, congratulations!
