In the Philippines, a pastor or religious leader can perform a marriage ceremony, but for the marriage to be legally recognized, the couple must secure a marriage license from the local civil registrar. Without this license, the marriage may be considered valid in a religious sense but not legally binding. Therefore, it's essential for couples to obtain the necessary legal documentation before having a pastor officiate their wedding to ensure it is recognized by the government.
Yes, a pastor can.
Yes it can. The license is issued by the particular denomination, and can be revoked by them
(in the US) He may marry them in a religious ceremony (i.e.: in the eyes of the church") but without a legal Marriage Certificate that in itself does not constitute a legal/lawful marriage under civil law. A Marriage Certificate must be obtained be obtained from whatever government entity issues them in their jurisdiction.
The marriage is not "official" and thereby not recognized by the state if a marriage license is not issued and duly signed by the pastor and witnesses ... in other words, yes, it would be illegal and in the eyes of the church, could constitute "living in sin!"
You can get married on a Sunday without a pastor by opting for a civil ceremony, which can be conducted by a judge, a court clerk, or a designated officiant. Some states also allow for self-solemnization, where you can sign your own marriage license without an officiant. Ensure you have the necessary marriage license and follow local laws regarding the ceremony. Additionally, consider having a friend or family member lead a personalized vow exchange to make the occasion meaningful.
You can call yourself anything you want. What you can't do is profit on a title that requires a license. You'll have to check your own state laws but in some the title "reverend" would require a license while "pastor" might not. In my state, I can pastor a church without being ordained by a denomination... so check your local and state laws.
That depends on the organization that the person belongs to. Ask your pastor's bishop for the specifics.

There is no Presbyterian rule that prohibits the pastor from doing so. The local church may have such a rule, and the pastor may have his or her own reasons for not doing the marriage.
If you have a marriage license.
the Answer is NO.. first you go to pick up marriage paperwork from city hall or court house. when you got that marriage paperwork you have to attend the marriage Class to complete it. then the pastor will help you to setup an wedding once you got marry the pastor will sign the paper then you take to where you got paper from then they will give you an real marriage paper then your done. I hope this help.If you are getting married in a church; chapel or Justice of the Peace then you need a marriage license. Otherwise you can live together and it is called a 'common-law marriage' but no marriage license is needed.
No a marriage has to be performed by a pastor who has a marriage license .
