Best Officiant!

Mike was the best officiant we could have asked for. He was there for us the entire wedding planning process and made our day feel extra special. He is so kind and friendly it felt as if we were married by a close friend! He helped calm our nerves the day of and made both of us feel so present on our big day.

Just awesome

At every step Mike was so awesome! He explained what we needed to do before the wedding, had a few touch points before our wedding and was such a delight on the day of. He was funny and vibed so well with us during our ceremony. Such a great sense of humour. I’m so glad we went with Mike for our wedding, he made it extra special! Can’t imagine our day any other way.

Best officiant ever!

Mike is truly a blessing in the sky, from the first zoom call Mike instilled confidence and calmness in the proceedings to follow and put us at ease with his knowledge, flexibility and smooth conductor-like quality during the wedding. Mike was the perfect choice to make our butterfly wedding dreams come true and announce us as husband and wife. If that’s not enough, multiple guest also gave us their praise with the quality of the service as a remark after the wedding and that alone speaks mile

We would definitely recommend Mike to officiate your wedding!

Mike was our officiant for our wedding in June 2014. We wanted someone who was approachable, laid back, funny and easy going... Mike is all of these things and more! We also wanted a simple, short ceremony and that’s exactly what he provided! There was no pressure and we could decide on as much or as little religion for during the ceremony as we wanted, which was perfect. We are forever grateful for Mike and for him being there for us on our special day!!! Oh and he nailed pronouncing our last name which was a bonus haha!

Fantastic Officiant!

We had such a wonderful experience with Mike as our officiant. Not only was the ceremony better than we imagined, but Mike made the entire process a great experience. His friendly, and flexible demeanour put us at ease as he walked us through the process of selecting our ceremony readings, and vows, as well as catered his service to fit our individual style. His great sense of humour was another highlight that I know our friends and family truly enjoyed. Thank you for making our special day everything that we had hoped it would be!

Great Officiant!

Our wedding day was truly the most magical day, and we are so happy that we chose Mike to officiate. Mike was very professional and offered us several options of style and length of ceremony, because we weren't too sure of what we wanted. We knew we didn't want a long ceremony and Mike helped us choose a perfect length and even worked with us on what to style of vows to use. Mike kept it professional, but also knew when to bring some good, fun humour. We would highly recommend him! Thank you Mike! - The Josephs
