Official State Registration & Legal Standing
Rev. James Chun is officially registered and commissioned by the State of Hawaii Department of Health as a licensed Marriage Performer under section 572-12 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes. His license authorizes him to solemnize civil, religious, non-religious, and same-sex marriage and civil union ceremonies statewide. He serves couples across Oahu and proudly welcomes weddings, elopements, and vow renewals for all couples seeking a welcoming, licensed island officiant.
What a State-Registered Officiant Means for Your Marriage
Legally recognized under Hawaii law. Hawaii Revised Statutes §572-12 requires that every marriage and civil union be performed by a State-licensed marriage performer. Without one, the ceremony is not legally valid.
Direct electronic filing. Rev. James is registered in the State of Hawaii’s Electronic Marriage Registration System (EMRS). Immediately following your ceremony, he certifies your marriage record electronically with the Department of Health.
Fast certificate access. Because your record is filed through an active performer account, your temporary marriage certificate becomes available online two business days after your ceremony and remains valid for 90 days — enough to handle a name change or benefits paperwork while the State mails your official certificate.
