New Mexico accepts online ordinations and does not require ministers to register before performing marriages.
New Mexico Stat. § 40-1-2No Registration Required
Marriage licenses are obtained from the County Clerk. No waiting period. The license does not expire.
Same-sex couples have married legally in New Mexico since December 19, 2013 — by court ruling.
New Mexico law had never explicitly banned it — several counties simply started issuing licenses in 2013, and the state supreme court (Griego v. Oliver) confirmed them.
Every Church of Pride minister can officiate for every couple — that’s the point.
