A wedding officiant is the person who is legally marrying the couple. The officiant may be affiliated with a particular religion or may be a civil figure (like a justice of the peace.) In either case, the officiant must be authorized to conduct weddings in the state in which the wedding will take place.

I believe the correct term is "wedding officiant" if you are looking to put their name in a wedding pamplet I have also seen Officiate used.
The person who performs the ceremony is called the officiant.
"shaadi" means wedding...it's a ceremony......."saagai" means engagement...it's also a ceremony.. "shaadi" means wedding...it's a ceremony......."saagai" means engagement...it's also a ceremony..
Legally, all you need is an authorized officiant and two holders of the same marriage license. Everything else is optional.
No you do not have to have a preacher .First check with you states law when you get your marriage licence . But some of the people who can perform wedding ceremony are judge's, justice of peace, mayor, city clerk and notary public to name a few.
