Introduction: Congratulations! I'm an ordained nondenominational Christian minister, not with an online "ordination," which isn't legally valid for performing weddings in North Carolina anyway. I perform both non-religious and religious weddings, and I've officiated at over 1,500 marriage ceremonies, so I have plenty of experience in what makes an enjoyable ceremony. Having spent years working in radio, I have a voice folks enjoy hearing, and one that never needs a microphone to be heard. My writing skills have always been praised for custom crafting ceremonies to fit the exact needs of the moment, and the exact wishes of my clients. Also, I've spent time acting on the stage, so I know a bit about how to deliver my "lines" with style and grace without upstaging the two real stars of the show--the couple getting married! I perform weddings in Spanish, and I've performed portions of ceremonies in ten other languages. I don't offer any packages or discounts, as I think straightforward pricing is the best. My base fee is $250 for a weekday wedding ceremony in the Charlotte area, with fees higher for Friday afternoons and weekends. This fee doesn't include a rehearsal, but if you wish to hire me to "run" your rehearsal I'll be happy to assist. My job is all about helping people find even more joy in what should be one of the very happiest days of their lives. I reduce stress, solve problems, and find answers. My very best wishes to you both, and I look forward to having the opportunity to help you!

I have no words to describe how good of a Officiant Alex is. He had a BIG task, and he did it flawlessly! All of my guests were Brazilian, and Alex did the perfect job of doing it in Portuguese, the whole ceremony! Thank you Alex, for all of the kindness and respect for us on our wedding day. I can’t be thankful enough!

Alex Cheek made the experience and lead up to the wedding less stressful. The attention to detail and the implementation of our stories to the ceremony was outstanding while not making the speech of his boring but actually livens up the mood and makes the experience better. Very impresses in the amount of effort he put in and would recommend him highly for him to be anyone's officiant.

Needing an Officiant Your excited about your upcoming wedding and you think everything is on schedule UNTIL who you thought was going to marry you backs out 10 days before your big day. OH NO! What do you do? Don't fret Ceremonies by Alex to the rescue. We could not have been more pleased. Alex walked us through the ceremony. He was extremely helpful and professional. Alex made us feel relaxed and we knew our ceremony would be special. We especially liked the warming of the rings as did our guests. It added a special touch to our special day. We can't thank Alex enough for making our day so wonderful. You can't go wrong with Ceremonies by Alex. Thank you again. Ken and Lynn.
