He made the wedding special.

We had a phone call with him and he walked us through the whole process. We loved everything he said to us at the wedding and we loved the fact that he provided the sound system for the ceremony.

December Wedding

Pastor Michael was the absolute best! I was very nervous going with him since we had never met him personally, but he communicated with us the entire way. He also does a call with you and your significant other to ensure everything happens the way you want it to. Have already recommended him to two other brides!

Would 100% recommend Pastor Mike to anyone getting married.
