Minister Michael was all you could hope for in an officiant. He guided us through the wedding procedures, helped us develop the perfect ceremony, acquired the beach permit, performed the ceremony as scheduled and with wit and wisdom. On top of this his remembrances were unexpected and touching. He promptly filed for our license and promised to renew our vows anytime we so desired. Our wedding was more wonderful than we ever expected, thanks to Minister Michael.

Minister Michael Hawai'i, a wedding officiant in Honolulu, HI, has performed over 426 weddings using a far smaller wedding referral site. With that came a pile of testimony that is all five stars. You can see them on my website. You may also find another 83 reviews (83 is the site's limit). I provide a wide range of ceremonies, from beaches to luxury hotels; I have seen them all. I have even joined a celebrity or two. I started off as a Police Chaplain. Yeah, fun to see a cop on your doorstep at 2:00 a.m. holding their hat in their hand with bad news. When I retired, I took a different direction with it when I married my nephew and his wife. I didn't even want to do that; I never did a wedding. He insisted and got me set up on Thumbtack. That was 10 years ago. Well, that was 400+ weddings ago, and good therapy for a veteran like myself. Take a good look at my website. There you will find everything you need, including how to get a marriage license in Hawaii, beach permits, park permits, botanical garden admission, where to find Lei, etc. All of it is very user-friendly.
