PLEASE NOTE: Due to check scams I DO NOT accept checks under ANY circumstances.
I am a retired ordained minister and wedding officiant based in Gilbert, AZ. I am happy to offer inter-denominational services to couples of all backgrounds, beliefs, and sexual orientations. I am flexible and versatile and can perform ceremonies that range from simple to comprehensive. I will tailor your wedding to your preferences in order to perfectly encapsulate your love story.
I have been participating in weddings in some capacity for more than 50 years. For the past 10 years, I have served strictly as an officiant. Recently retired from CVS Health, I am excited to focus on the pursuit that gives me the greatest joy. Namely, helping couples design the wedding that they have always dreamed of. I only speak English but can work with your interpreter if needed for your family/guests.
Most ceremonies usually consist of an opening statement or prayer, readings, vow and ring exchanges, the marriage announcement, and a final blessing. I'm more than happy to customize these proceedings to include or leave out God. I am fully vaccinated and able to travel most anywhere for your ceremony. I invite you to call or text my number on file to get in touch and see if I am a good fit. My desire is that no matter which officiant you select, that you will have a moving and magical wedding.
If your venue is more than 50 miles from Gilbert I do request an additional $50 for each travel hour (roundtrip). I accept Cash, Venmo or Cash App. No checks under any circumstances.
For additional reviews do a Google search for Rev. Michael Officiant which should show a Google Business where you can read comments left by others who I have had the honor of officiating.

I have been doing weddings in some capacity for 50 years, but in the past 5 years strictly as an Officiant. I retired from CVS Health last year and moved to Gilbert. My greatest joy is working with a couple to make their ceremony just the way they desire.
