After Graduation

Overview

Futur+ is an optional membership available to graduates of the Path to Ministry course who wish to continue their journey with FuturFaith after graduation.

What Futur+ is

Futur+ is the formal membership structure of the FuturFaith community.

By joining Futur+, you become:

An official member of the FuturFaith Community,

Eligible for ordination (if you choose),

Supported through the nomination and registration process required to solemnise marriages legally.

Membership exists to support compliance, community standards, and ongoing professional alignment, not to control how you run your work.

What being a member enables

Joining Futur+ unlocks access to the legal and administrative pathway required to conduct legally-binding weddings.

Depending on your location and circumstances, this includes submission for listing with:

HSE logo

HSE/GRO

Republic of Ireland

NI Direct logo

NIDirect/GRO NI

Northern Ireland

Please note

Registering with GRO NI

Registration with GRO NI requires that you already have a wedding booking in a wedding venue in Northern Ireland.

Please note

Nomination timelines

Timelines for completion of the nomination process depend on external authorities and cannot be guaranteed.

Conducting legal & non-legal ceremonies

After graduating from the course, you may begin conducting non-legal ceremonies immediately.

This includes ceremonies such as baby namings, funerals, vow renewals, and other family or life ceremonies, all of which can be offered without joining Futur+.

To conduct legally-binding wedding ceremonies, Futur+ membership and the appropriate registration are required.

Your celebrant profile

Graduates who join Futur+ are also provided with:

A public profile page on the FuturFaith website,

Official listing as a certified FuturFaith Minister.

Your profile helps couples and families find you and verifies your training and standing within the FuturFaith community.

Details about how profiles work, what’s included, and how they’re maintained are covered on the separate page:

Fees & payment options

Futur+ membership is available for €15 per month. Full payment details are outlined in the membership agreement at the point of joining.
