Amazing experience

Michael Calderin was amazing. He took the time to meet with us multiple times to get our premarital certificate and also took the time to chat with us whenever we had questions. He was sincere and kind to us and the wedding guests. He was such a pleasure to work with. Wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to officiate our wedding!

Extremely pleased

Reverend Michael was the absolute BEST to work with. He was literally sent from heaven, when we only had a few days to find our wedding officiant. Michael was referred to us by my photographer and from one day to the next he got us married. He was responsive, diligent, communicative and made us feel so comfortable. He even suggested a few things for our ceremony that were so glad we decided to move forward with because it made our day that much more special and meaningful. Because of him my husband and I now will now share a tradition on our wedding date, each anniversary. I am so thankful we found him, for his words and mentoring despite the short period of time we had at hand. I highly recommend him. Michael knows what he is doing and he will make you and your guests feel at home, happy and at ease. Thank you for being there for us on such a special moment. I look forward to not loosing communication! Blessings everyone.

Our guests won't stop complimenting our ceremony!

We are so beyond grateful to have crossed paths with Rev. Michael Calderin! From the pre-martial counseling to wedding day he was an absolute joy to work with. Thanks to him, our wedding ceremony was complimented from top to bottom. His words were thoughtful, purposeful, and he kept our crowd engaged the entire time. He knew when to throw in a piece of comedic relief and I truly can't get over how perfect our ceremony was. Thank you so much to Rev. Michael - the relationship we share with him will surely outlast our wedding season. He is the BEST!!
