Fairway to Forever Wedding Officiant

Most officiants treat every wedding the same. I don't. I'm Mike Madden — a wedding officiant since 2016, a published author, and the founder of Fairway to Forever, my specialty brand for couples saying "I do" on a golf course or country club. But I officiate weddings of every kind: backyards, barns, beaches, ballrooms, vineyards, and everything in between. What I bring to every ceremony is the same. Your ceremony won't sound like a script pulled off Pinterest. It'll sound like you. I write every ceremony custom — your story, your humor, your vows, your vibe. No templates. No awkward pauses. No officiant reading off an index card hoping nobody notices he just met you. I'm a storyteller by trade. I've spent 20+ years coaching people through the moments that matter most, and I'm comfortable on a stage and at an altar — calm, warm, completely focused on the two people in front of me. What I bring: • A custom-written ceremony built around your story • A wedding officiant who's a storyteller by trade, not a clipboard reader • Full collaboration on vows, readings, tone, and structure • Someone who shows up early, dressed right, and ready to deliver Your wedding is the moment everything changes. Let's make sure the ceremony actually feels that way. Simple & Sweet — $350 A clean, warm ceremony for elopements and small, intimate gatherings. Streamlined, never generic — still a real, heartfelt moment. Personalized — $450 Your story woven in, custom vows guidance, and a ceremony built around the two of you instead of a template. The Full Story — $575+ My signature. Your complete journey — how you met, the proposal, the little details only you two would notice — built into a fully custom ceremony your guests will quote for years. Includes vow coaching for both of you and rehearsal attendance. Not sure which one fits? Reach out and let’s talk it through. The first conversation is always free — and it’s the best way to feel whether we’re the right match for your day.
