Hey I’m Mike! Some are NBA legends, some are the king of pop, another one was a ruthless boxer, and I believe one was even known as Magic! As for me, I’m just ordinary Mike! But just like those Mikes, I’m overly passionate about something. That something is the biblical definition of marriage! If you are reading this, I need to start with a huge congratulations!! You are about to embark on one of the greatest blessings God has for you. Doing life as a team is the absolute best! I would be overjoyed to join you two, encourage you two, and create for you two a custom wedding ceremony that is unforgettable! Let's get you Married By Mike!

“Short answer: Yes! Hire Mike for a fantastic officiant! You won’t regret it! Long answer: I have been fortunate to know Mike since university. We were roommates for a year and he has been my soccer captain to this day. When my now wife and I were looking for an officiant, I thought about Mike. Not only because he knows me, but because I know how great of a public speaker he is. How personable he can be with anyone he meets. I guarantee he will take the time to get to know you and your significant other. He will learn every detail of your story. He will personalize your wedding to exactly the way you want. If you don’t know him like I do, still reach out to him. I guarantee you will be amazed by his personality and his care for your love story. Our wedding was absolutely amazing and Mike was truly the cherry on top! I am incredibly happy that we picked Mike to tell our story and create a beautiful ceremony!”

“The entire process of working with him was seamless and enjoyable. He guided us through every step, offering suggestions while also ensuring that our wishes were always honored. His patience and kindness put us at ease, especially during moments when we were feeling nervous or unsure. When it came time for the ceremony, we were in awe of how beautifully it all came together. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how heartfelt and personalized the ceremony was. It was unlike any other wedding ceremony they had attended, and it made our day feel even more meaningful.”

“Choosing Bishop Weddings was one of the best decisions we made when wedding planning. My husband and I had a destination wedding, so we needed a mini legal ceremony in the US first. Our officiant, Ashton, guided us through the legalities and made sure all necessary paperwork was completed quickly and accurately. We chose the Sign and Go package, and Ashton made our home ceremony feel incredibly meaningful. His attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond is what set Bishop Weddings apart.

“Jennifer was wonderful to work with. She was very easy to contact and quickly answered any and all questions. Rehearsal went by so smooth and made sure to allievate any concerns and nerves- everyone knew what to do, when to do it, and how. The ceremony itself was more than what we could have hoped for. Jennifer kept it upbeat, loving, emotional, and just FUN! We were involved in the writing process so the ceremony was personal and full of meaning but kept a lot of surprises for us. I cannot recommend Jennifer enough!!!”
