About

NOTICE: Due to military activation, March 27, 2014 will be my last ceremony until Oct. 1, 2014. I appreciate your interest in my services and I apologies for any inconvenience this may cause. Very respectfully, Michael

I'm an ordained Wedding Officiant registered in the District of Columbia. I take great pride in being from and representing the gay community here in DC.

This an incredible time in our history! My partner and I are thrilled with the recent Supreme Court decision. As both proud members of the military, we eagerly and anxiously watched the fall of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell; the icing on the cake was the ruling on DOMA!

I’ll work with you to create a personalized and memorable wedding ceremony that is just right for the two of you--in your home, along the Potomac River or perhaps in front of the Washington Monument? And if you're undecided about the location for your ceremony, I have lots of suggestions in the D.C. area as well.

I’m very flexible and am comfortable in all settings... casual, formal, religious and non-denominational. I take my cues from you, which allows me to perform a very personal ceremony for each individual couple.

After 20 years together, we decided to get married in D.C. We found Michael's website and even though it was a Sunday morning, he answered his phone. From that moment forward Michael made the entire process a wonderful experience by explaining the entire process, making it easy for us to make decisions, and when we met him in D.C. for our ceremony, he was just as nice as he seemed over the phone. He remembered every little detail we wanted in our ceremony and we will always remember him as part of our special day.

It was a double wedding for Ted and Keith - Michael and Rodney. We were very pleased with Michael's service - from providing details of getting marriage certificate, details for the ceremony and how to get the marriage license. Your thoughtfulness throughout was outstanding. Thanks for making our day very special.

Michael truly made our wedding meaningful and memorable! Being from outside the district we were not sure of the requirements, so Michael made us feel so at ease and took care of the process with ease. I highly recommend him and will use him for my second marriage! Jk
