About Mike

“A wedding is one of the most sacred and meaningful experiences of life, and it should be approached with caring and thoughtfulness. I believe that a wedding belongs to the couple, and is theirs to shape and create as they choose. I will do everything I can to help them make it their very own."

"Each wedding is unique, special and beautiful. I am honored to have been involved in so many of them, and joyfully look forward to sharing in many more. I always come away blessed.”
