It is funny seeing all the things a notary can do with their commission. Did you know that notaries can perform wedding ceremonies and solemnize marriage? Notaries in the states of Florida, Maine, and South Carolina have the authority to perform marriages. Though it is only performed in these 3 states there are some interesting aspects to notarizing a marriage and solemnizing the rites of matrimony. The fee of a notary public may not surpass that provided by law to clerks of the circuit court for the same thing. This does not apply to the fees set for affirmations or witnessing.
If you are from one of these 3 states and interested in this concept, wondering where to get started, you can purchase marriage packages online at the Non-profit National Notary Association (NNA) website nationalnotary.org. There are many places on the web to find marriage certificates, and special embossers. Knowing the importance of couples wedding vows and ceremonies, it is important to be professional and make sure you have all of the things you need according to state laws and according to couples preferences.
A reason notaries work as good officiates to momentous occasions such as marriage, is for people who want a non-religious ceremony. Another choice to consider is the price a notary will cost you compare to other facilities and or representatives. A notary cannot charge more than the original fee set by the state of Florida, Maine, or South Carolina. While researching this topic I went online and found that there are many notaries that advertise this service in those 3 states.

As we were dating in Japan, Eric said there was not much difference between Japan and Singapore. After I decided to marry him, I thought I had better visit Singapore to see with my own eyes what Singapore and his family were like.
On the Singapore Airline flight, I read the feature article on Singapore in the flight magazine and found the sights of town very exotic. Is this Singapore? Eric said that Singapore and Japan is not much different. Is it true?
A Warm Welcome – Singapore Style
At Changi Airport, only Eric welcomed me. Strange, I thought. A Japanese fiancée coming all the way from Japan and no family member showing interest!? I arrived at night and everything was dark outside when we took a taxi home. I began to feel afraid. Where am I? At Eric’s terrace house only his parents were waiting for us. They were about my grandmother’s age. Half an hour later after our arrival, all Eric’s sisters and their boy friends came back to the house. I later understood that they did not want to make me feel uneasy by meeting all the family members at one time and so they deliberately delayed coming back home to meet me. That was a little relief, knowing their true and “good” intention, but still I felt strange.
My first culture shock came when I found myself not able to communicate with Eric’s parents. The father spoke Mandarin and the mother spoke only Hainanese. This was a shock to me as I thought I was a culturally adaptable, having lived alone in the States for many years
The second cultural shock came soon when I found the toilet adjacent to the kitchen area. This shock had a long lasting impact as every time we eat at the kitchen at his house I lost appetite quickly, being aware of the toilet location. If I could hear the flushing sound, that’s it. I would not eat any more!
Be Prepared For Tropical Living
But the most unbearing thing about Singapore in the initial period was the heat in the air. I could not stand the heat. I could not wear anything but cotton material no sleeve clothes only. This lasted a couple of years. I told myself no way I would wear polyester clothes which Singaporeans liked. All I wore in those initial years were either from Japan or hand made in cotton. I could not wear ready made clothes.
That first night, in Singapore, I stayed awake a whole night. Early in the morning, I heard a rooster crow. Yes, there were roosters crowing in Japan. But I was a city girl, I didn’t grow up with the roosters. I looked out of the window and saw an Indian man riding a bicycle. It was exotic, all right. But that was not what I had expected.
At the end of 3-week stay in my first visit to Singapore, I told Eric that I wanted to cancel the whole thing as I did not like Singapore. These initial cultural shocks were so great that it took me some time to open myself to Singapore, especially to Eric’s family. I knew their good hearts, yet, this feeling that they would never understand that I am Japanese persisted for many years.
