We are so happy we hired Michael to officiate our wedding! We had a very small, intimate civil ceremony at a restaurant. He did a great job entertaining our small crowd and officiating the short and sweet ceremony we wanted. Thank you, Michael!

FAQs

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Firstly I would like to meet face to face or via Facetime so we can discuss what is in the clients mind, regarding vows, time of service, prayer, readings, to get a feel for the overall service. From there I like to organize what will be said for the vows, short and sweet, more traditional or their own words from the heart. If they feel the need for a rehearsal to get the wedding party in sync, great if not, we look forward to the big day.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
In Australia, I owned a Wedding Function Center helping coordinate wedding receptions, working with caterers, bands and D.J. plus I have been a Professional Ballroom Dancer for 30 years
