In order for us to make your Nikkah request possible, you must first fill out the form below. We only perform nikkahs along with the civil ceremonies.
After you submit your request for a specific date, you will be asked to pay a deposit. The deposit amount is dependent upon the number of attendees. Once the deposit is paid your requested date will be reserved. All required items must be submitted/confirmed no later than two weeks prior to the event. If items are not received by the deadline, VRIC reserves the right to give your reserved date to another requestor. Please note, the availability of your requested date depends on officiant availability. Fridays are unavailable for nikkah ceremonies, please plan accordingly.
