Answer:
RCW 26.04.050
The following named officers and persons, active or retired, are hereby
authorized to solemnize marriages, to wit: Justices of the supreme court,
judges of the court of appeals, judges of the superior courts, superior court
commissioners, any regularly licensed or ordained minister or any priest of
any church or religious denomination, and judges of courts of limited
jurisdiction as defined in RCW 3.02.010.
We know of no waiver that a Judge from outside of Washington state could
get to come within the requirements of the above statute.
