An evangelist is the same thing as a minister except he does go out or travels around. The Laws of each state dictate the answer to your question, but the Law says also you must get a license and the license does fulfill the requirements of the Law. So weather you are married by a Priest, evangelist, pastor, minister, or cult leader. The agreement between a man and woman is what is binding, and in some states without an agreement if you are together for a certain number of years you are considered married. But in most states they require a certified ordained minister to be one that marry you legally

Anyone can perform a ceremony, the question is whether it is recognized by the entities you want recognizing it.. as for "legally", that I do not know, I would not think it was an issue, but apparently you do for some reason..

1) It depends on the state (if you are in the USA) - state laws vary.
2) In California and Nevada (the only states where I have done weddings) you must be an ordained minister in some denomination, which is pretty darned easy to do nowadays.

Depends on the state or country.
In my state (Maryland), anyone can perform a wedding ceremony.
In other states, one must register and be an ordained minister with a church (501c3).

The FSM (pbuh) does not PERFORM the ceremony. He is present in all things. The service is instead officiated by a pirate. Of course it is traditional to have strippers in attendance. Pasta is served to the guests by way of communion. The cake is whichever pleases you, because that is how the FSM (pbuh) rolls.

Only if the "evengelist" is an ordained minister, a justice of the peace, or the captain of a ship.

If he or she is empowered by the state as a legitimate member of the clergy, then yes.

Yes, if they are ordained.
Anyone can become an ordained minister online.
