Weddings – An Overview

Father Michael officiates weddings for all Christian faiths. The passion he has for uniting couples in marriage is visible as all of his ceremonies are full of holiness, warmth, love and laughter. His homilies contain stories that your guests will love, making your wedding truly special.

We believe marriage is a sacrament.

Marriage is a sacrament and a sacred blessing between a man and woman which extends beyond the exchange of vows to the entire life of the relationship. This covenant is sacred because the love of a husband and wife signifies the love between Christ and his people.

Father Michael will officiate your wedding at the location of your choice, indoor or outdoor. His many years of experience can help you with ideas for your ceremony, and he will provide the leadership needed so everything goes smoothly on your wedding day!

We offer the Focus Marriage Survey ~ which helps couples learn more about each other and also confirms what you already know about each other. Counseling is also available before and after the wedding.

Meetings, Requirements, and Honorarium

At least one meeting is required with Father Michael to get to know each other and discuss your wedding plans and dreams. If you're from out of state you can have a virtual meeting.
