So my good friends back home just asked me to marry them

So one of my good friends from back home just asked me if I would be interested in becoming ordained and marrying them next year. I hung out with them a bit in grade/high school, mostly just playing soccer and swimming with them. Then in college we hung out a lot because we went to schools 5 minutes from each other and became pretty close.
Now his fiance messaged me and texted me asking if I wanted to do this out of no where. At first I was like "uhhh really? why me?" She said the thought randomly crossed their mind and though it would be a good idea if I did it. I told them I was not opposed to it, and that I would look into it.
I was really thrown off at the time and still am ha. I don't really see myself as someone who would look 'respectable' in front of everyone saying those crazy words and such. I suppose it would be a bit fun, and I don't think it would be too tough. I am sure I can find something online that gives me the cliff notes on what I would have to say. And I am not really sure how big of a ceremony they would have. I know his family was christian and went to church when we were younger, but I don't think they do that stuff anymore. Not really sure about her family.
What are your guys opinions on this. Would you get up in front of everyone and marry your friends?

At first I thought this was going to be some polyamorous relationship thing but no you're just becoming a priest

Well I am looking online to what it takes to become ordained and officially perform a wedding. Emailed the county they plan on getting married in to ask what documents or verification they would need for it to be official.
I can't say this was ever on my to do list before I die, but it is something I can check off anyway I suppose if it happens. Hopefully all the hot womens at the reception don't think I am a priest or something and can't have sex... I will have to make that clear to everyone at some point.

Here is a question for you: Do you have to be "ordained" in order to legally marry a couple? Surely it differs state to state but what have you determined in your research?
