In the State of Ohio it is remarkably simple to get the authority to solemnize marriages.

First you have to incorporate with the state as a not-for-profit organization/church. For this I think you only need ten signatures and a list of officers.

Second, you have this group attest that one of you is the pastor of your congregation and that the registered church and its board wishes to grant the pastor the authority to solemnize marriages.

No questions are asked. It is all very automatic and cut and dried. Nothing to it.

Get ten or so people together and agree on officers and CEO and for I think a small fee you can be your own tax-exempt church.
