Wonderful Person To Work With

Michael with Redbird Ceremonies was the first officiant my husband and I spoke with and just a few minutes into our Zoom conversation we knew he was the perfect choice. Some things you just don't need to overthink and in retrospect, we couldn't be happier with our decision.

Michael was so great to talk to, he was communicative, kind and made us feel very comfortable. Our wedding took place on private property without a coordinator so having vendors we could trust to be professional and keep things running smoothly was very important to us. I was initially nervous about reciting my own vows but everything fell into place so naturally and we owe much of it to Michael! He received so many compliments from friends and family after the ceremony as well. Everyone enjoyed what he had to offer and his recommendation for our reading couldn't have been more perfect.

Thank you so much, Michael!

Beautiful, sweet, thoughtful

We absolutely loved having Michael marry us this past July. He seamlessly brought together everything we asked to include in our ceremony. His writing is thoughtful and his voice is eloquent. He was always there when we needed him and he was just a joy to have be a part of our day. We were in amazing hands throughout the whole process. I couldn’t recommend him enough.

Michael was so personable and easy to work with!

Meeting with Michael was like meeting an old friend. He immediately put my husband and I as ease and tailored the ceremony to our exact requests. We received so many compliments from our family about our ceremony and would recommend working with Michael in a heartbeat.
