ring to help me with changing my name after the wedding!
We eloped on a private sailboat in Newport, and Mike made our day feel so incredibly special and personal. He was warm, friendly, and thoughtful, and felt more like a friend we had known for years than our officiant. One of our favorite moments was when he played our first dance song from his phone so my husband and I could share a private, intimate dance on the boat. It was absolutely magical. 🤍
His beautiful words during our ceremony are even highlighted in our wedding video, and we will cherish them forever. We are eternally grateful our paths crossed with Mike. He is an incredible officiant, but an even better person. We honestly wish we lived in RI so we could spend more time with him beyond our wedding day!
We could not recommend Mike more highly—he made such a special day even more meaningful, and we will always be grateful he was part of the beginning of our marriage! ❤️
Mike was such a wonderful officiant and truly helped make our wedding the best day of our lives. Our venue was so happy to hear Mike was conducting our ceremony and now we know why...
! Mike was incredible to work with throughout the entire planning process. He was very flexible with the ceremony script and ensured it read and flowed to our liking. During the rehearsal, he kept us, our wedding parties and families all at ease by providing clear directions. On the day of the wedding, he not only delivered the ceremony script perfectly but was a calming presence to both of us. He is funny, genuine, personable and most of all caring. He truly wanted to make sure our special day went exactly as we wanted. Looking back, we can't imagine our Wedding Day without Mike!
Choosing Mike Egan with Heavenly Weddings was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.
The simplest way I can put it is this: Mike is just a great guy. Not just a great ...
officiant—a genuinely great human being who truly cares about the people he serves.
From our very first conversations, Mike was easy to work with, responsive, and willing to spend as much time as needed going over details to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. He took the time to get to know us and helped create a ceremony that felt personal, meaningful, and authentic.
At the rehearsal, Mike immediately put everyone at ease. He treated our family and wedding party like they were his own, patiently walking everyone through the details and making sure everyone knew exactly where they needed to be. His sense of humor brought a lot of laughter into the evening and helped take the stress out of what can be a nerve-racking process.
Then came the wedding day.
As I stood there waiting for my beautiful bride to walk down the aisle, emotions were running high. Mike was right there beside me, calm and steady, reminding me to breathe and enjoy the moment. It may seem like a small thing, but it meant a lot. In that moment, he wasn’t just our officiant—he felt like a friend.
The ceremony was beautiful, heartfelt, and everything we hoped it would be. We are so grateful for Mike and the role he played in one of the most important days of our lives.
If you’re looking for an officiant who is professional, caring, organized, and genuinely invested in making your day special, we cannot recommend Mike Egan and Heavenly Weddings highly enough.

Mike Egan is absolutely incredible!
Working in the wedding industry, I’ve met many officiants, and Mike truly stands out above the rest. When I got engaged, I had zero doubt about ...
who I wanted to officiate our wedding.
We were married on 10/04/2025, and our ceremony was everything we hoped for and more. Mike offers a wide variety of ceremony scripts and is so flexible with adding personal touches. He’s super easy to communicate with, genuinely funny, and amazing at calming nerves on the big day.
He also handles all the marriage license paperwork, which takes a huge weight off your shoulders. Mike can even run your rehearsal, and he does it with complete professionalism while still keeping everyone relaxed and smiling.

Look no further for a first class individual!!

and had a very calming presence. He ran our rehearsal, and made us feel completely at ease before our big day. During our wedding ceremony, he ran everything so smoothly- cued us when to speak, and even made sure to step out of the way for the first kiss! We had many guests compliment our ceremony, and how well spoken Mike was. After we returned from our honeymoon, Mike called us to review the name change process, how to get a copy of the marriage certificate, etc. He was so thorough, and he walked us through the process in every possible way from start to finish! I would highly recommend Mike to anyone!

many reviews online, we gave him a call. He was personable, friendly, and put us at ease. We immediately knew that he would make one of the most stressful, and personal, moments of our wedding day easy, fun, and just for us. Leading up to the wedding, Mike answered all of our questions and helped us craft a personal ceremony. He led the rehearsal and, once again, answered all of our questions. On the day of, he did everything he could to make the event go smoothly, from organizing the license ahead of time to handling our vows to ensuring all ceremonial items were in place. During the ceremony, he whispered under his breath our reminders when we needed them. Also important - he snuck out of the way for the first kiss - can’t wait for the pictures! Lastly, we were Mike’s fourth wedding that weekend, but he was always on time, always positive, always energetic. It felt like we were his first of the season!

edding paperwork tips & tricks, arrived early, conducted the perfect ceremony to suit our exact requests, sent us some great candid photos he captured the day of, & helped us after with direction on paperwork, name change, etc. Mike even helped me get back on track when I was stunned by my husband surprising me with a gorgeous ring. I couldn’t speak so Mike gently leaned it and brought me back to say my I dos. Thank you Mike! You are so kind & professional. We would highly recommend hiring you!

l, personable and knowledgeable. Throughout the entire process Mike was easy to reach with any questions we had and always responded promptly. Mike’s genuine personality is what makes him stand out. He made us laugh, he made us cry and he captivated our audience. Our guests were raving about him all night! We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant for our ceremony. Mike, thank you for being so incredibly awesome!!!!
Mike is AMAZING! Having been a guest at a few of his weddings in the past, I knew he would be great! I loved how comfortable he made us both at rehearsal and day of. I thought i...
would be a nervous wreck, but he had me joking around and comfortable leading up to the ceremony. He also pushed for us to start early as there was a storm rolling in and fit in in under 10 mins, but not rushing it at all! And we missed the rain! I also think all our guests were already present too so it was the right call. He is the best of the best, i will recommend him to anyone and everyone!
Mike was absolutely amazing at our wedding in May! Being from out of state, I was a little hesitant finding an officiant for our wedding online. He came highly recommended from our...

usband and I requested. I also loved how kind and considerate he was of our feelings. He gave a great pep talk to both my husband and I before the ceremony to ease our nerves (my husband especially lol ) . I recommend him for anyone getting married.
Mike is the best! We knew from the first phone call that Mike was our guy. We wanted a short and sweet ceremony and we appreciated that Mike did not try to convince us otherwise. ...
He walked us through how to get the marriage license and took care of the actual filing which is such a huge relief since we live out-of-state. We cannot recommend Mike enough!
Mike was a wonder to work with! He made the experience wonderful. I was so nervous and he helped us through everything. He makes sure to save you from any mistakes.
Tyler and I are so grateful to have had Mike marry us on our wedding day.
From day 1, Mike was so helpful. He walked us through the wedding process between choosing ceremony readi...
ngs and how to obtain a marriage license, to a rundown of exactly how the ceremony would flow. He assured us that on that day he would walk us through every step again.
At our rehearsal Mike directed everyone perfectly and made us feel prepared for the ceremony. Our ceremony was as stress free as it could have been. He subtly gave us our queues so we knew what we had to do next at all times. He spoke eloquently and kept the crowd’s attention.
We couldn’t have asked for anyone better!

our wedding party and us at ease during our rehearsal, which helped everyone be confident in what we were doing on the wedding day. Mike did a great job orchestrating the ceremony. He is charismatic, a great public speaker, and he helped ensure that the sequence of events went off without error. Mike is also aware of all of the little things that you wouldn't think of, like how long you should hold the first kiss so that the photographer can snap the perfect picture. It's easy to tell that Mike really enjoys what he does, and we would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking an officiant. Thanks again, Mike!
Working with Mike was Heavenly! Honestly, he was a recommendation from
our wedding venue and he was the only person I considered as an officiant. From our first conversation, Mike ...
made us feel comfortable. He was flexible and provided lots of guidance. This continued on our wedding day with his cues. Simply, he made the process so much easier (weddings can be stressful!). Mike is also just a nice guy all around. My fiancé and he talked at length about our honeymoon destination and he offered recommendations to check out. If you have the opportunity to work with Mike, do it. You won’t question your decision! We were 1000% happy with ours!
Mike was genuinely amazing! He has such a great personality and was perfect for our wedding. When we first spoke, he sent me some sample scripts to give an idea what he might say, ...
which was extremely helpful for my husband and I. The day of the wedding, he became the "director" for us, and made sure everything was in order so that my parents and I didn't have to run around worrying. We also loved that he wore a nice suit even though our ceremony was a bit small! Finally, during the ceremony my husband and I appreciated his small cues to clue us into what to do and what was coming up.
Thank you so much Mike! You really made our day that much more special.

e created a wonderful Ceremony atmosphere. He was in control the whole time and we never once felt nervous or scared. Lots of compliments from our Guests on how great they thought our Officiant was. Mike had a variety of Ceremonies for us to choose from which made us even happier. Faith is very important to us so we chose the Ceremony that closely resembled a "Church" Ceremony. It was absolutely wonderful when the day came! We were so thrilled with everything. We would HIGHLY recommend Mike and Heavenly Weddings to Officiate your Wedding. Fun, Helpful, and Friendly! We couldn't have asked for anyone better.

wedding date. He was really responsive and flexible with our meeting. We went back and forth with emails working out some details and then we ended up having a zoom initial meeting. When he did our rehearsal dinner he had the whole wedding party laughing and at ease. Mike really knows what he is doing and is a joy to work with. He made the whole ceremony perfect for us and enjoyable for our guests. He is very thorough and makes time for extra photo opportunities for your photographer. Who wouldn’t want this on their day? I couldn’t be happier with how our ceremony turned out. Mike had both the bride and groom at ease the whole time. Hire him as your officiant ASAP and don’t wait like I did because he is very busy.
