    Exceptional Officiant Services by Michael Peter

    We could not have asked for a better officiant for our wedding than Michael Peter. From the very beginning, he was professional, kind, and genuinely invested in making our ceremony personal and meaningful. He spoke beautifully, kept everyone engaged, and created such a warm and memorable atmosphere for us and our guests.

    Michael made the entire process feel effortless and helped make our special day even more perfect than we imagined. We received so many compliments afterward about how wonderful the ceremony was. His attention to detail, calming presence, and heartfelt delivery truly made a difference.

    We highly recommend Michael Peter ceremonial services to anyone looking for someone who is compassionate, professional, and exceptional at what they do. Thank you for helping make our wedding day unforgettable!

    The best officiant you could ask for!

    Michael was an incredible wedding officiant and made the entire process so easy and stress-free. From the meetings leading up to the wedding to the ceremony itself, he was professional, organized, and great to work with. His calm presence and attention to detail helped make our day perfect, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. The way he gets to know you both and tailors the ceremony to fit who you represent as a couple was amazing, he could not have done a better job! We highly recommend Michael to any couple looking for an amazing officiant!

    Michael Peter is an Amazing Wedding Officiant!!

    There are very few people you meet in life who, after just one conversation, feel like someone you’ve known forever. Michael Peter is one of them. From our very first meeting, he showed a genuine interest in getting to know us, not just asking surface-level questions like “how did you meet,” but really diving into our story, our values, and what brought us together. He also shared his own experiences and thoughtful advice, which made the conversation feel natural and meaningful.
    We laughed, joked, and connected the entire time, and by the end of that first conversation, we knew immediately we wanted him as our officiant. He made it a priority to ensure he wouldn’t feel like a stranger standing beside us at the altar and he truly delivered on that.
    When we met up with him again in Charleston during our tasting trip, it felt like catching up with a friend. He checked every box for us: incorporating religion in a way that felt right, bringing a warm and personable presence, and creating a beautifully written ceremony script that we were able to customize to reflect what mattered most to us. I could not recommend Michael Peter enough as an officiant and we genuinely will consider him a forever friend.

    The best decision!

    Michael was recommended to us by our wedding planner and it ended up being one of the best decisions that we made throughout the entire process of wedding planning. From our first conversation with Michael, we knew he was going to be the perfect person to officiate our wedding ceremony. He made the whole process very easy but also meaningful because he takes the time to get to know couples and truly cares. We were able to incorporate all of the important ceremony features we wanted while keeping our guests engaged. There were so many people that approached us after the wedding that were extremely complimentary of our ceremony. We are so grateful for Michael and will highly and wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in the future. Thank you!!!

    Best officiant that we can now call a friend

    Michael Peter went above and beyond for us as a couple. He immediately makes you feel comfortable, like you have known him forever. He takes the time to get to know you on a real level and makes your wedding day that much more special. I genuinely could not have imagined a better officiant for our wedding. It felt like we were being married by an old friend. I can’t say enough positive things about Michael, he is truly genuine, kind man. He cares and you can feel it. He offers amazing advice and counseling should you need it. He was available to talk to us at any time. He offers a great perspective on life and marriage. He will tailor your ceremony to you as a couple so it feels personal. He is a great soul to know and be around!

    Michael was absolutely incredible. He delivered our ceremony in both English and Spanish so seamlessly, making sure all of our guests felt included and connected. The ceremony felt personal, meaningful, and beautifully balanced. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide such an important moment.

    5 Star Review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant for our wedding! From our first meeting, Michael was warm, professional, and truly invested in getting to know our story. They guided us through the planning process with ease, offered great suggestions for the ceremony, and made sure every detail reflected us as a couple.

    On the day itself, Michael brought the perfect balance of sincerity, humor, and heart — setting exactly the tone we wanted. So many of our guests commented on how personal and heartfelt the ceremony felt. If you want someone who genuinely cares and delivers an unforgettable ceremony, we can’t recommend Michael Peter enough!

    Michael was the best officiant!!

    We got married in February at Lowndes Grove with Michael as our officiant! Not only was he attentive and helpful throughout the whole process but also such a kind person that we are so grateful to have met! He let us choose our ceremony script and delivered it perfectly day of. He also handled all of the marriage license steps once we applied for our marriage license. We could not recommend Michael enough!

    Best Wedding Officant

    From our very first premarital call, Michael went far beyond the role of an officiant. He truly walked alongside us, guiding us with wisdom, patience, and faith, and helping us build a strong foundation rooted in God and love. Each conversation felt intentional and meaningful, giving us space to grow individually and together while preparing not just for our wedding day—but for our marriage.

    On our wedding day, he was nothing short of amazing. His calm presence, thoughtful words, and deep understanding of who we are as a couple made the entire experience feel effortless and incredibly special. He brought God into our ceremony in such a beautiful, heartfelt way that felt personal, genuine, and perfectly aligned with our values. Because of him, the day felt peaceful, joyful, and exactly as it was meant to be.

    He truly set us up for the best day of our lives—and for a lifetime beyond it. We felt so supported, so prepared, and so present in every moment. We cannot imagine our wedding or our journey to marriage without his guidance. We are endlessly grateful for his heart, his faith, and the care he poured into us. Choosing him was one of the best decisions we made.

    What a perfect day!

    Michael was a big help with our marriage. We changed the location and the date and he was very accommodating to our needs. He was very professional and pleasant to talk to as well. I am grateful for him and the wedding turned out to be better than I had expected.
    I would recommend him to anyone seeking a memorable wedding day!

    Michael is the best!

    We just got married in October and Michael was our officiant. We didn't have a close friend or family member who felt comfortable officiating our wedding so we weren't really sure what to do. Our wedding planner recommended Michael and we are so happy we chose him! I was a little disappointed that we didn't have a family member or friend to officiate and was worried having someone we didn't know would feel a little strange but that was not the case! Having the initial phone call with Michael really put us at ease and made it an easy decision. We are not local to Charleston so we were able to meet in person during one of our wedding planning visits and had a counseling session and it was a really great opportunity to get to know Michael better and feel even more comfortable. He did a really wonderful job officiating our wedding, the ceremony was the perfect amount of time and level of emotion. I truly could not recommend him enough!

    Personality Speaks Volumes

    For our wedding we wanted it to feel personal although it was a destination wedding for many. The responsiveness was always quick, when needing to switch around dates and times it was always a breeze! Loved the quality of message as many guest thought we knew him personally.

    Michael is truly one of a kind. He goes above and beyond to get to know his couples, treats them like family, and does everything he can and more to make your ceremony special! With Michael, you feel like you are being married by your best friend no matter how long you have known him. Can’t recommend him enough!

    Exceptional Officiant-Thoughtful, Personal, and Memorable

    We had the absolute pleasure of having Michael Peter as our wedding officiant, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect experience. From our very first conversation, he made us feel comfortable, understood, and excited for the ceremony.

    Michael took the time to get to know us as a couple and crafted a personalized ceremony that was not only beautifully written, but also incredibly meaningful. It struck the perfect balance—thoughtful, romantic, a touch of humor, and just the right amount of religion to honor our values.
    It felt intimate, authentic, and filled with love.

    If you’re looking for someone who is warm, professional, and genuinely cares about making your ceremony special, we wholeheartedly recommend Michael Peter. We are so grateful for the role he played in one of the most important moments of our lives.

    Great Experience

    Michael was an absolute blessing to work with. He made the entire process smooth and meaningful, even offering a premarital counseling session that helped us start our marriage on a strong foundation. His love for the Lord and passion for mentoring young couples truly shines through. Our ceremony was everything we could have wanted—heartfelt, personal, and rooted in faith. We’re so thankful he was part of our day!

    The best wedding officiant!!

    I cannot express how amazing it was to work with Michael! He was helpful, intuitive, and truly catered to our special wishes for our wedding day. The time we spent chatting with Michael before our big day was really special not only to get to know him better, but it also helped my husband and I see some important topics in a different context. We will always value the relationship we have created with Michael and couldn’t have asked for a better officiant to make our wedding day as perfect as it was. Thank you Michael!

    Bi-Lingual Wedding

    My wife is from Colombia, and when some of her family traveled to Charleston for our wedding, it was incredibly important to us that both her Spanish-speaking family and my English-speaking family felt equally included in our special day. We were honestly stressed trying to find an officiant who could offer a truly bilingual ceremony that honored both cultures.

    All of that stress disappeared the moment we found Michael.

    From our very first phone call, we knew he was the right person to officiate our wedding. He was warm, professional, and made us feel completely at ease. Michael delivered a beautiful bilingual ceremony with such grace and sincerity—it was everything we had hoped for and more.

    His communication was fantastic throughout the entire planning process. He was flexible, understanding, and never made us feel anything less than fully supported. Thanks to Michael, our ceremony felt seamless, inclusive, and deeply meaningful for everyone there.

    We’re so grateful to him for making our day truly unforgettable. Thank you, Michael—you were such a special part of it all!

    Truly the BEST

    We planned our wedding from out-of-state, so we solely relied on Wedding Wire and The Knot for vendor recommendations. I found our beloved officiant on Wedding Wire and quickly hopped on a call with him; his warmth was so calming and his love for the Lord was exactly what we were looking for, as Christians ourselves. We were finally able to meet for premarital counseling in the days leading up to our wedding and it just reaffirmed that he was the PERFECT person to share our special day with - and yes, ladies, he even remembered to move during our first kiss! Please do not hesitate to book Pastor Michael, I cannot recommend him more highly!

    Perfect For Our Wedding!

    We had an amazing experience with Michael Peter as our wedding officiant. From the very beginning, he was warm, professional, and truly attentive to what we wanted. The pre-marital counseling sessions were thoughtful and helpful.

    On the day of the wedding, Michael Peter delivered exactly what we hoped for: a beautiful, non-denominational ceremony that was heartfelt, meaningful, and perfectly timed. It was short, sweet, and full of sincerity—just what we envisioned. One detail that really stood out was how he took the time to practice and get the bride’s name just right—it’s not an easy one, and we appreciated that extra effort.

    We’re so grateful for the care and effort Michael Peter put into making our day special. We highly recommend him to any couple looking for someone who really listens and delivers a personal, professional ceremony.

    The PERFECT Officiant Who Goes Above & Beyond

    Michael Peter was the perfect officiant for our intimate, non-traditional wedding. We didn't get married in the church. However, since we come from Christian and Catholic backgrounds, it was important to us that God played a meaningful role in our ceremony.

    Michael took the time to really understand us and created a ceremony that felt so personal, warm, and meaningful. It was everything we hoped for — heartfelt, relaxed, and truly “us.” He also made the process incredibly easy and took care of everything from start to finish.

    Both sides of our families adored Michael and told us how perfect our ceremony was. He was easy to work with, super thoughtful, and made the whole process feel stress-free. We’re SO grateful he was part of our day!

    Great Officiant & Such a Kind Person

    I cannot recommend Michael Peter enough! He was recommended to us through our wedding planner, MOD Events, and we are so glad we chose him!
    When we met at our marital counseling session with him, we knew he was a cool dude, and he just get's it. He is someone we would see ourselves keeping in touch with into the future, as you could tell he really cares about you and your relationship. He is the definition of a kind, souther hospitable person who loves Jesus.
    He is also grounded in faith, and has such amazing advice on how to live your life faithfully in your marriage. This was such an important asset my husband and I looked for in our officiant.
    Michael was very responsive and eager to get to know my husband and I. We could not be more thankful we chose him!

    BEST Officiant!!

    I can't say enough good things about Michael! Me and my now husband got married 2 weeks ago but we had the pleasure of meeting Michael over the phone back in January. It didn't take us long to realize he had to officiate our special day. It was evident right off the bat how much he cares about others and he became a quick friend. He prides himself on knowing the couples he is going to marry, something that was very important to me. Michael took time out of his busy schedule to meet me and my husband in person on two different occasions. He had so much advice to offer and I know we will lean on him for years to come! Our wedding ceremony was everything we imagined and more. It was heartfelt, humorous (he reached out to our parents for personal stories to share during the ceremony which lightened the mood and helped us to relax), concise, and meaningful. We had numerous guests come up to us at the reception saying how much they enjoyed the ceremony and we have Michael to thank for that! I couldn't recommend Michael more and promise if you choose him to officiate your wedding, you will not be disappointed. We feel so grateful to have had Michael officiate our wedding and know that we have also gained a lifelong friend!

    The Best Wedding Officiant

    Michael Peter is a wonderful human being and a wonderful Officiant. It was a blessing to find that Michael was available one week before our Wedding. Even with such short notice, he was able to do an amazing job. The ceremony was perfect and he was able to accommodate all the aspects we wanted into the ceremony. Not only that, but his advice and the pre-marriage counseling were very valuable. He helped calm the pre-wedding nerves and also made us very excited for the future to come. We cannot recommend him and his services enough!!! Thank you so much, Michael!!

    Best wedding officiant

    Please let me tell you about Michael Peter. We met Michael as you meet most people, through someone you love. There was an instant connection between us, like we had been friends before. After a brief meeting we knew that he was going to be the man for us, becoming family by nightfall. Michael led us in all of the correct and comfortable directions for our special day, from providing counseling beforehand, making the licensing process a breeze, to recommending places for our ceremony and helping us find where to celebrate afterwards. Mr. Peter took care of us in every way possible, and even drew our names in the sand and took pictures for us on the beach! By the way, Folly Beach Pier is a great spot for random support and extra photographers. If you’re considering Michael, consider no more. He is a one off a kind man and you will not be disappointed have him officiate for you.

So easy to talk to and makes you feel as if you have known each other for years. Genuine, thoughtful, and kind :) If you are looking for an officiant, this is your guy!!

    Best Officiant in Charleston!

    Michale was beyond amazing to work with! We live out of town and have very busy schedules he was always accommodating of that! By the time we got married it felt Michael was not just a vendor but a friend. The ceremony script he wrote was thoughtful and personalized. All my guest complimented Michale’s work saying he was throrough and said the nicest things about us a couple. I couldn’t recommend him more!

    We Love Michael!

    An absolutely incredible experience with Michael as our wedding officiant!
    From the very first meeting, he showed genuine care and took the time to really get to know us as a couple. He wasn’t just focused on the ceremony itself but also on understanding who we are, our relationship, and what makes us unique. He shared personal stories from his own successful marriage, which not only put us at ease but also gave us so much inspiration for our journey together.
    One of the things we appreciated most was his thoughtful approach to how our faith, friendship with each other and our newly blended family would be incorporated into our ceremony. He took the time to ask questions and understand what was meaningful to us as a couple, tailoring the ceremony to reflect our desires in a way that felt authentic and heartfelt. He exudes JOY as you can see in the pictures :)
    The ceremony he crafted was beautiful, personal, and beyond what we had envisioned. He even surprised us with bead bracelets that were so meaningful! We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect officiant for our big day, and we’re so grateful for the warmth, wisdom, and sincerity he brought to every step of the process. We have made a lifelong friend in Michael! Thank you again Michael, for making our wedding ceremony truly unforgettable!

    A new friend!

    Having Michael apart of our wedding day was everything we needed! He made us feel like family from the moment we met him and continuously checks up on us even now that we are married! He eased all of our anxieties and was so reassuring throughout the process. In the short time we got to know him, we immediately knew he was the perfect choice for our day based on his strong, yet lighthearted belief in the power of marriage. His advice is something we'll carry with us for the rest of our lives and we're glad we found a friend in Michael through our wedding!

    Michael did an absolutely fantastic job. From our initial outreach to months after the wedding, Michael was there to talk us through it all. He also meshed incredibly well with our other vendors and it felt like there was one team behind us throughout our celebration. Michael is very experienced and punctual. Highly recommend him for your big day

    Michael made our day extra special!

    Absolutely thrilled with our experience with Michael as our wedding officiant! From the very start, Michael took the time to truly understand us as a couple. He dedicated over an hour on a phone call and then met with us in person for a counseling session. During these sessions, he offered incredible wisdom, guidance, and advice that really resonated with us. His words were so heartfelt, and he provided such a warm presence that added an extra layer of meaning to our ceremony. Michael made our day unforgettable, and we’re so grateful to have had him as such an important part of it. We couldn’t recommend him more highly

    Michael was amazing

    Micheal was absolutely amazing! He really was so kind and welcoming from our first call to our ceremony. He was extremely professional and always responded back in a timely manner, but also extremely funny and light hearted. My guests had nothing but wonderful things to say about his ceremony. He really put us at ease in a very stressful and nerve wrecking time. I couldn’t have pictured a better officiant and would recommend him to anyone getting married in the Charleston area. I truly hope we will stay in touch with him as he was such an important part of our special day!

    Thank you!!!!

    Recommend 100%

    Michael was such a blessing on our big day! We wanted an officiant who recognized the importance of Christ in a marriage, and Michael was an answered prayer. He prayed for us, met with us, and shared his wisdom. On the administrative side, he was very helpful in printing out our license and having it ready on the day of. He also filed everything for us, so it was stress-free. We now have a life-long friend in Michael, and for that we are so thankful! Highly recommend!

    Must-have Officiant for your Wedding

    Michael was absolutely amazing to work with! You will be able to tell from the first phone call/conversation with him that he truly cares about his couples. He was fantastic on the day of the wedding. The way he ran the ceremony was perfect and smooth! His marital counseling is a huge bonus. Lastly, I had family with a native language that isn't English, and Michael rehearsed a verse in my native language to help them feel included. My understanding is that he often offers this couples, and it was just the cherry on top to a perfect ceremony that helped all family members feel included! I would 11/10 recommend Michael!

    An angel on earth!

    Michael is an angel on earth. The way he portrays the Lord’s light into everything he does and says, and the way he can inspire those around him to incorporate Jesus further into their lives is a true gift. He is well spoken, great to work with, and has amazing communication skills. He was able to personalize our ceremony to fit our vision perfectly. He also has marriage counseling sessions which we found very helpful in starting deep and meaningful conversations about marriage and our relationships with Jesus. We love Michael and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to get married!

    Michael Peter is truly THE BEST!!

    Michael Peter was such a sweet part of our wedding season. From the counseling sessions to our big day he was always there as a mentor and friend. He built a relationship with us, while also delivering the most beautiful ceremony. His attention to detail and quick response time also made him easy to work with. We could not have asked for a better officiant for our wedding and now a great friend.

    Beautiful and Stress free Ceremony

    He met my husband and I more than a month before the ceremony. He had wonderfully provided us with sample scripts for the ceremony if we wanted to choose. My husband and I decided to let Michael choose his own script with the request of it being simple and easy to follow. He delivered a Beautiful speech and presented us as husband and wife. The paperwork was completed the day before so no hassle was needed between the ceremony and reception.
    Thank you Michael!

    My husband nick and I had the honor of having Michael as our officiant. He was recommended to us by our planner, we had an initial phone call then met a few times and we knew from the first phone call that he was the perfect match for us. Incredibly kind, nonjudgmental, and so very loving. He responds very quickly and made this the most enjoyable and comforting experience.

    An amazing person through and through!

    The wedding time is a crazy and fast experience, enough cannot be said about how Michael Peter helped make this process easy and enjoyable! Michael is a great person who took the time to get to know us before the ceremony which only made the whole process more comfortable. During the couples counseling sessions Michael offered his wealth of experience and asked introspective questions and offered a lot of insight in navigating the complexities of marriage and life. Above all, Michael made the wedding day comfortable and calmed any nerves, it was easy to stand at the altar next to a friend. Lastly, Michael was able to conduct our ceremony in Spanish and English which meant a lot to both sides of our family. I would certainly recommend Michael to couple!

    The BEST around!

    Michael was so awesome! He responded super quick every time we contacted him. He allowed us to personalize our ceremony as much as we wanted. He was punctual at the ceremony, and so kind. We came from out of town, and were unable to meet him in person before the ceremony, but we were able to FaceTime him to meet the day before! It was an absolute joy to meet him and work with him!

    Best Officiant Ever!

    It was an absolute pleasure working with Michael. He stepped in for us at the last minute (2 weeks before the wedding!!) when our friend fell ill. We knew instantly after meeting him he was genuinely the perfect person to officiate our ceremony. It felt like a gift or “God Shot” of divine timing as he was previously unavailable but another couple had to reschedule for our wedding date making him available. And what a gift! Michael swooped in and our ceremony went seamlessly without a hitch. We had multiple wedding guests comment on the beauty of the ceremony and we know that wouldn’t have happened without Michael.

    “Take it all in. It’s as big as it seems. Count all your blessings. Remember your dreams.” -Jimmy Buffett

    Thank you, Michael, for making our dream day even more magical! We have so much gratitude and love for you!

I won’t elaborate on our 30-hour planes, trains, and automobiles experience getting to Charleston (from CA), except to say that we felt loved because Michael was checking on our progress all the way…making sure we were safe. He honestly cared and was willing to change his schedule if necessary.

    Being a wedding officiant is not just a job for Michael, it’s a love that he puts his heart and soul into. We were absolutely amazed that EVEN AFTER the wedding he cared about us and helped us work through a couple of glitches. To sum it up, Michael did a beautiful wedding ceremony for us even in the pouring rain (under the White Point Gardens gazebo). What a blessed event! We highly recommend Michael to anyone.

    Truly the Best, Michael Exceeds Every Expectation

    Where do we even begin with Michael? From the moment we met him, we knew he was the perfect fit for our ceremony. Our planning team recommended him when we expressed our desire for a Christian aspect to our wedding, and he delivered beyond measure with an incredibly heartfelt ceremony. To put it simply, he exceeded every expectation we had for an officiant and became so much more than just a part of our wedding day – he became a cherished member of our journey as a couple.

    What sets Michael apart is his genuine interest in getting to know each couple on a personal level. He took the time to meet with us, eager to hear our love story and understand what makes our bond unique. This personal connection shone through in the personalized vows he crafted for us, capturing the essence of our relationship in every word.

    On the day of our wedding, Michael's calming presence and professionalism were unparalleled. Despite unexpected distractions during the ceremony, like planes flying overhead, he remained composed and carried out the ceremony flawlessly, keeping our guests engaged. The beautiful words that were shared created an atmosphere filled with love, tears, laughter, and commitment that we will cherish forever. But Michael's impact didn't end with the ceremony. Despite having prior commitments, he stayed to bless our dinner, demonstrating his unwavering dedication to making our day as special as possible. He genuinely cares and is willing to go above and beyond for his couples.

    Included in his package, and something we highly recommend all couples to take advantage of, is premarital counseling. His insights into teamwork, compromise, and nurturing our relationship were profound, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing our marriage long after the wedding day.

    Michael truly embodies the very essence of what it means to be a remarkable human. His kindness, warmth, genuine nature, and unwavering faith creates an aura of positivity. Without hesitation, we would highly recommend Michael to any couples in search of an officiant.

    Perfect experience

    We loved Michael! He is a great officiant and an amazing person. We couldn’t have been happier. He made the wedding really special. He was also very responsive and flexible as we were planning our wedding and accommodated our language preferences (100% Español). The vows, the prayers, his kind and meaningful words. We are so thankful that we found Michael and would absolutely recommend.

    Amazing Officiant and Person!

    Michael was always so responsive to all of our questions and was very flexible with his timing regarding meetings, which was especially helpful since we were getting married out-of-state. He involved us in the process so we felt like he knew us better as a couple and offered a pre-marital counseling session. We felt very comfortable with him and absolutely loved working with him and getting to know him. We would recommend Michael without hesitation! He's such a sweet and genuine person, and we were so honored to have him marry us! :) Thank you, Michael!!!

    Best officiant in Charleston!

    My husband and I found Michael on Wedding Wire, and after reading the reviews, we decided to reach out! It was very important to us to have a faith based ceremony, and Michael does just that! He’s very personable and we instantly felt comfortable after speaking with him over phone. Our guests loved how professional and friendly he was, he makes you feel right at home. You won’t be disappointed in hiring him for your special day!

    Best wedding officiant!

    Michael just officiated our wedding in March 2024 in Kiawah Island, SC. He was the easiest vendor we worked with. So easy and seamless to communicate with, flexible, responsive, positive, friendly and veery knowledgeable about the entire process. He made our lives so easy and we felt so comfortable and confident going into our wedding day knowing that he was our officiant! Our pre-marital session with Michael was also great! It truly felt like we were speaking with an old friend - he never once felt like a stranger even though we didn't meet him until our wedding day since we live out of town. We highly recommend Michael as a wedding officiant - he did an outstanding job and our wedding day was just so perfect in part thanks to him!

    Best Officiant Ever!

    Michael Peter is truly one of the sweetest and most genuine souls and we were so lucky to be able to have him officiate our wedding. He was so professional throughout the whole experience and made us beyond comfortable - it felt like talking to an old friend every session we had. We were able to customize our ceremony script and the ceremony was even better in person than we could have imagined. Everything from start to finish with Michael Peter was seamless and made our wedding day that much better.

    Avery and Hannah Wedding Review

    Mr. Mike was the perfect addition to my son's wedding! There is not a kinder, more heartfelt gentleman to help bring two people together on their most special day. If it is within his ability, he will ensure the ceremony is perfect. Mr. Mike will not just officiate your ceremony, he will become like family.

    Best Guide into our next chapter!

    I cannot sing the praises of Mr. Mike any higher. He is the kindest most understanding (especially when I had to make SEVERAL changes to my wedding date and changing times of the ceremony) and funny person I could have ever asked for to perform my husbands and I ceremony. His couple Counceling session went well beyond my expectations and truly asked the hard questions, without getting too explicit, and felt like it brought not just us as a couple together but a better understanding of who Mr. Mike is. He frequently checked in with us and made sure that our vows were exactly what we wanted. Just absolutely amazing. Would have anyone else guide us on this next chapter in our life’s!

    10/10 experience

    Simply put, Michael Peter is AMAZING. Not only is he a great officiant, he is an even better person. He is flexible and willing to help out anyway possible to ensure that your special day goes perfectly. He’s so good, we are already thinking about renewing our vows just to have him again!! But seriously, Mr. Peter is top-notch and we would 1000% recommend his services.

    Truly Awesome!

    Beginning with the first phone conversation until “I now pronounce you husband and wife”, Michael Peter was a true blessing!! His calming spirit and genuine nature reassured us through every step. Michael was quick to respond and extremely accommodating! His words of wisdom and personal tips for a healthy and meaningful relationship were heartfelt and will be used for years to come. Thank you Michael! 💕

    Beautiful Experience

    Our wedding planner introduced us to Michael, and from the first meeting, we knew he was going to make the wedding day special. He spent time getting to know us prior to the wedding, making the wedding very personal and tailored to us. There was a perfect balance of religion, love, advice, and even Jimmy Buffett quotes. All of our guests kept saying how much they enjoyed his ceremony. We are so blessed to have found him and worked with him. I could not recommend Michael enough!

    SO many compliments on our ceremony!

    Our ceremony with Michael was the BEST ceremony we have ever witnessed, and we aren’t the only ones that feel this way! During cocktail hour we had multiple guests compliment our officiant and ask “where did you find him?!” Truly, I cannot recommend Michael enough! His ceremony was professional, honest, heart warming, and the perfect length. Every word was captivating and meaningful. Many times the ceremony is the least memorable part of the wedding, but over a month later we are still getting compliments from our friends and family about how beautiful and perfect the ceremony was! If I could recommend only one vendor from our wedding it would be him!

    Michael was soo kind to my husband and I on our wedding day! He was patient even though my fiancé then was late to rehearsal! He really cares about the couples he meets and takes care of it for you as much as possible with suggested scripts. We noticed how much he cared when we did our premarital session! He was very clear and easy to understand! We thank him soo much for his generosity! He also gave me the best advice out of any of my vendors and that was step back and let the vendors handle it for you and do their job!

    Michael is wonderful through and through. From our initial online video consultation to our wedding day, he has been a true friend and guide during our wedding planning, and now in our marriage. Michael was the only officiant my (now) husband and I spoke with, and we immediately knew Michael was the only and best choice for us. He communicated promptly and effectively to make sure we knew what to do. We cannot wait to have Michael officiant a future vow renewal! Thank you friend

    All around a wonderful officiant!

    My (now) wife found Michael Peter through our wedding planner, and after meeting him for the first time we knew he was the perfect fit. Michael is very caring, kind, well spoken, and wise! After every meet up we knew we had made the right choice , he got to know us, asked us some questions, and wrote the most beautiful custom speech that moved almost everyone to tears at the ceremony. Michael adjusted the speech to our requests and balanced points of religion, love, comedy, and advice perfectly. He provided all the documentation quickly and gave us a hard copy of the speech and a custom letter tailored for us. Everyone talked about how much they loved him and how he did such a great job for the ceremony. We highly recommend Michael for your wedding!

    The best officiant you’ll ever find. The greatest Uncle of all time.

    Most call him Michael Peter but I have the privilege of calling him Uncle Mike. I probably seem a little biased based on the 33 years I’ve had him guiding me through life but I promise you, to know the man is to love him. He makes the whole process seem effortless and is happy to lend a hand wherever he can. If you want a personalized experience with an officiant that really gets to know you as a couple, this is your man. Once you get him on the phone, you’ll understand. He’ll make your special day one you’ll never forget!

    Master of his craft

    After one conversation with Michael you will be able to sense the care he puts into not just officiating, but the couples he marries as well. His calming presence helped us throughout the process and, of course, up at the altar. He worked with us to put together our ideal ceremony script, and he executed it to perfection. He doesn't grandstand or try to steal the show - he will deliver a lovely, professional and personal ceremony that will be sure to get compliments from your guests. He made the entire process a breeze - even for an out of town couple. I highly recommend Michael.

    Michael was incredible. He makes everything extremely customizable and personalized. We were so busy leading up to the wedding and he took care of everything for us. Working with him was so seemless and easy. His premartial session was extremely valuable as well. He is an amazing, kind, and well worded man and I would recommend him to anyone in need of a wedding officiant!

    Michael Peter. Officiant who is now a life long friend.

    My husband and I got married 08.26.2023 in Charleston. We're originally from North Carolina so we had to find an officiant out of the state. We came across Michael, had our first meeting with him and knew he was the perfect fit for us. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Michael and talking with him over the few weeks prior to our wedding. I was going through a ton of stress the week before the wedding and mentioned how I was feeling to Michael--he called me and talked to me on the phone for several minutes reading scripture and made all my worries/stress disappear. It was truly a moment I'll never forget. I believe God puts people in our life for a reason and my husband and I are forever grateful for Michael and our friendship. Michael was so professional, easy to contact and made the ceremony so special and unique for us. It was my favorite part of the day. I highly recommend using Michael to officiate your special day. We're so thankful he was put in our life and will continue our friendship for years to come.

    Michael was our officiant and we could not have had a more amazing experience! He was professional, thoughtful, and made our ceremony perfect! We did a counseling session beforehand, and he listened to us and treated us like adults. He is kind, caring, and I would 100% recommend him to anyone who is looking for a great officiant!!! Thank you Michael!!!

    Exceptional!

    Michael Peter was exceptional! Mr. Peter invested time months prior to our nuptials to ensure he developed an understanding of our our unique personalities and needs. Michael scheduled individual follow up discussions and provided Godly advice in areas where myself and my fiancé needed it. Michael stayed in contact with us in the days preceding and following our ceremony. On the day of our wedding Michael was impeccable. He was punctual, engaged and eloquent…a complete professional! We feel very blessed to have had such a good, Godly man to join us in marriage.

    He is OFFICIAlly a part of the family! 10/10

    We got married on Memorial Day weekend and I could not say enough good things about Michael as our officiant. As soon as we spoke on the phone we knew he was the one to marry us. We share similar values, he is so kind, and fun. Once we met in person, I felt like we were family and I would love him to be our life mentor. He was so professional, well spoken, and personable. He really emphasizes the importance of marriage and helps you be present in the moment. I would recommend Michael to everyone!

    Excellent!!

    We feel so fortunate to have had Michael Peter as our officiant. He truly went beyond for us and our family. Gave the ceremony in spanish!!! The calmness in his voice and the words he prepared and first shared with me were so lovely. All our family members were impressed by his part on the wedding. He was right on time, always available to discuss and had so much patient with me as I change the wedding date and venue a few times. He far exceeded our expectations. It was exactly the ceremony I wanted.

    Michael is the best!

    Michael helped make our wedding day so special. We truly enjoyed getting to know and working with him. He made our marriage license and process easy as well. The words he spoke during our ceremony were so special and unique. He truly became an amazing part of our wedding. Thank you so much Michael! Definitely a must hire, we could not recommend him enough.

    Beautiful Ceremony

    Michael Peters did a wonderful job officiating our wedding! From the very beginning he was so kind and helpful and we loved the marriage counseling session. He offered great and positive words to carry with us in our marriage. Michael was very responsive and did a fantastic job and at making sure the ceremony script was what we wanted. At the rehearsal be made sure we were all prepared so everything could go seamlessly on the wedding day. He has you sign the marriage certificate and takes care of the rest! At the ceremony he delivered it perfectly and even included a part in Spanish because he knew I and part of my family were Hispanic. The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and I received many compliments about it. Thank you Michael for all you did! If you are looking for an officiant with experience and that truly cares about his couples look no further !

    So amazing!!

    Michael was truly so amazing to work with. He was very thoughtful, patient, kind and professional. He spent the time to really understand our relationship and get to know us so that we did not feel like strangers on our wedding day. He is so knowledgable and continues to offer extra support whenever you need it. He also made us feel very calm on our wedding day - highly recommend to anyone getting married in the Charleston area!!

    Amazing Officiant!

    After our first phone call with him, my husband and I knew he was a great fit for us and hired him without looking elsewhere. We are not from the area, but he made a point to FaceTime with us and meet us in person when we visited. It was so nice and reassuring to get to know him before the wedding. He also provides such great wedding & life advice, you can’t go wrong! Hire him for your wedding!

    Great officiant!

    Michael was great to work with. He goes above and beyond as an officiant. He made time to meet in person a few months before the wedding to get to know us. When we met, Michael provided us with guidance on what to expect on the wedding day and his own marriage advice which we found very thoughtful. He worked really well with our planner, venue and DJ to ensure everything ran smoothly. What we appreciated most was the examples he shared of other ceremony scripts and he worked with us to tailor the script to fit our personalities. We highly recommend Michael!

    One of a Kind Officiant

    Words can't express how much Our Wedding Officiant made me and my husband's wedding so very special. We jumped the broom eta 3/32/2023. Mr. Mike is definitely a Gift sent from Heaven. I am glad that I chose and hired him as my Wedding officiant. He is very reliable and responsive. He asked if we can meet and greet with him before the wedding, which for me I appreciated. Like for real, I can go on and on, that's how much I felt about Mr. Mike. If anyone reads my review, please know that I mean that Mr. Mike is truly a gift from God who will definitely be sure to be on time, actually he showed up like 1 1/2 hrs to meet with others who I hired to arrange the ceremony . Thanks so much Pastor Mike.

    Absolutely fantastic!

    What a great human being and wedding officiant! Hands down the easiest experience you would have for your wedding. His initial visit and conversation was so easy and without any hiccups. Great counseling session when he actively listens. The day of the wedding great professionalism and he is now part of our family! Recommend without any reservations

    Mike is fantastic!

    Mike is fantastic! He's a very personable officiant who we spoke on the phone with then met for coffee prior to our wedding. He does this because he likes to get to know the couple instead of introducing himself for the first time at the rehearsal (or even the wedding). He's very professional and takes a lot of the guesswork out of how the ceremony will run as he has multiple sample scripts to choose from that can be customized. I cannot say enough good things about Mike and he was an integral part of making our special day very special!

    Highly Recommended!

    Michael was amazing. We requested a bilingual ceremony for 1/7/2023. Thank you so much for making our ceremony memorable. Both our families enjoyed the english and spanish version, everyone felt included and we couldn't have asked for a better ceremony. Thank you for all your advice, kindness, and knowledge. We really appreciate you. Highly recommend his service you will not be disappointed!
    Thanks again for all ❤ and for making us feel relaxed and confident.

    Michael is amazing!

    My husband and I got married on NYE in Charleston, we have been several times but we are not from there. Wedding Wire of course helps you narrow it down the search and we are so thankful we did because we found Michael.

    Michael was extremely helpful, very responsive, and overall an amazing human being. Even if you never met him in person it’s like you’ve known him for years. We are so happy that Michael was able to help us get married. Even our guests complimented us on him and how nice of a guy he is and how good he is at being an officiant. He will help you with the ceremony process as well, I had no idea about the scripts and prayers etc. he was very easy to work with in that regard.

    Hands down use Michael if you’re in the area!
