About this vendor

ABOUT ME:

More than just a wedding officiant, I have been a licensed and ordained Christian minister since 1995. I have served as a youth pastor, assistant pastor and senior pastor. I am currently an associate pastor at a local church in Tacoma and I have officiated close 100 weddings since 1996 when I performed my first ceremony.

I do weddings now because I enjoy working with couples while helping them to make the important step into marriage. When I conduct a wedding I am professional, attentive to the bride, groom, wedding party and guests, I love to inject spontaneous humor and my goal is to make sure that your wedding ceremony is what you want it to be; memorable. Because of my background and experience I have more to offer than other officiants. I'd be glad to discuss the number of ways that I can help you when we meet.

Short Notice

Rev Mike helped us create a great day in a short notice. Our original officiant canceled at the last minute and cause very much stress. Rev Mike replied to me right away and was able to save our day. He was very professional and funny. Rev Mike was able to get enough information to make our day personable and fun. Thank you Rev Mike for a great day.

Best Wedding Officiant!

Pastor Mike officiated me and my husband's wedding in June 2021. We found Pastor Mike 3-4 months before our wedding and he was an incredible support to us during such a busy time. He was reliable, punctual, and great with communication. He offered us great ideas for things to incorporate into our ceremony, such as a sand ceremony, poem, etc, that really made our ceremony all the more beautiful. We also worked with an amazing ceremony coordinator, Myeshia, through Pastor Mike who also offered amazing support the day of our wedding with coordination and communicating with our vendors. Cannot recommend Pastor Mike enough as a wedding officiant. He sprinkles in humor and really got to know us (via several Zoom calls) to incorporate our story into the ceremony. Mawande and I thank you for everything, Pastor Mike!

Our Special Day

Pastor Mike is amazing at what he does. He was exactly what we needed to pull this wedding together. He was on time, patient and corresponded with me days prior to see how things were going. Having pastor Mike at our wedding was the best decision me and my husband could’ve made.Very thankful for him.

A gifted and remarkable wedding officiant!

Pastor Mike Wilson played a major part in making our wedding day one to remember. Guests said it was like he had known us for years and called the ceremony meaningful and moving.

He was knowledgeable, a pleasure to work with during the wedding preparations and a calming presence during the ceremony.

Like we told Mike after the ceremony, he has a gift as a wedding officiant.

We'd highly recommend Pastor Mike for other couples looking for a officiant.

Pastor Mike did an excellent job officiating our wedding, he took care during our interviews to write down notes and personalize our ceremony. He brought a strong and desired Biblical presence to our wedding and injected enough humor to be a real crowd-pleaser for our ceremony. Mike also attended our dress rehearsal the night before, which was nice for helping us plan the ceremony. Overall I would recommend!

When we first met Pastor Mike, we discussed how we wanted our ceremony. We wanted something simple and sweet. Pastor Mike really delivered the day of our wedding. He made us feel at ease and helped us with the whole ceremony. His kind words made the ceremony special. He also came looking sharp in a suit and tie. We would definitely recommend him to anyone that is looking for a pastor.

My family and I feel very blessed Pastor Mike was the one who performed our daughter's wedding. He made sure the bride and groom felt comfortable and relaxed. Pastor Mike didn't make the ceremony dull at all. He threw some humor in there which made the ceremony fun.
