If you want a Nikah that is heartfelt, truly personalized, and inclusive then this the officiant for you.

After having a difficult time finding a Nikah officiant that would marry my partner and I, coming across Dr. Ghouse was a breathe of fresh air. Even during the busiest of times for wedding officiants (summer time), he got back to us promptly and scheduled a Zoom call with us that same week assuring us that he would make time for our special day. Dr. Ghouse helped us custom create a beautiful ceremony that was both inclusive and respectful of my partner’s beliefs and my Islamic faith. We are forever so grateful to Dr. Ghouse for making our special day so heartfelt, beautiful, and everything we imagined. Our family and friends said, ‘We have never seen a Nikah as unique as this one. This will remain the best and most memorable Nikah we will ever see.’ Thank you Dr. Ghouse!

Excellent Nikah Officiant

Our Nikah ceremony was exactly how we envisioned it; including a blend of both religions (Muslim and Christian) so that everyone could not only feel included but also understand the similarities. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed Dr. Mike Ghouse's humor. It was very difficult to locate someone locally in Michigan and we were so happy that we found Dr. Ghouse. It was also extremely helpful that Dr. Ghouse was able to perform the ceremony virtually as we wanted to get this done as soon as possible in an intimate setting.
