    Some who are not members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints refer to our regular meetinghouses as temples. If this is what you mean, you would do everything you would for any other wedding, except the officiator and the hall rental are free.

    If, however, you mean the actual temples, then there are a few things you need to do. The first thing you would need to do is to become baptised. Realistically, you should only do this because you believe in it and are committed to it and not because you want to get married in the temple.

    Secondly, you will need to receive the Melchizedek Priesthood.

    Thirdly, both of you will need to participate in the endowment ordinance in the temple. You will need to wait at least a year from your baptism date before participating in it.

    Lastly, you'll need to make an appointment with your nearest temple to get married.

    You would need to buy into their organization by providing them with a certain percentage of your paycheck. Before you do this ask yourself the following, when did God become a corporate CEO? When did it start to cost man-made money to buy a spot in the "celestial Kingdom"?
