(for the Ceremony)

As long as they are at least 18, legally sane, mentally
competent and relatively sober at the time, and capable
of seeing, hearing, and understanding the legal nature
of the ceremony your two legal witnesses for your
ceremony can be anyone
- They can be blood relatives
- They can be friends
- If you're eloping they can be strangers off the
street or hotel/restaurant/wedding venue staff
They do not have to be your Best Man and Chief
Bridesmaid. That's traditional for bigger
weddings but more and more couples are honouring their
mothers, grandparents, other relatives
or friends by having them act as their witnesses
