Sister Festivus is sanctioned to solemnize marriage in
British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and Quebec Canada.

Since 2016, Sister Festivus has proudly officiated PRIDE weddings throughout the Greater Vancouver community, with thousands of dollars in service fees lovingly donated to local 2SLGBTQAI+ charities chosen by each couple. With deep gratitude to the community that has made this journey so meaningful, Sister Festivus is delighted to share a new chapter in service: "All wedding officiant services for the 2SLGBTQAI+ community are offered at no charge."  


Sister Festivus proudly presides over ceremonies in full Sister Drag, bringing joy, reverence, and celebration to each unique union. While no fees are charged for officiating services, couples kindly arrange transportation to and from both the rehearsal and wedding venue (taxi or Uber is perfectly suitable).


This offering is a commitment to community, ensuring that every queer couple has the opportunity to celebrate their love and marriage in a manner that is affirming, memorable, and filled with heart.
