Description:

Despite the changes in our lives over the past two years, I have faith that through careful planning I can help you make your ceremony truly memorable. Weddings provide an opportunity to demonstrate your love and commitment to the world, and we must get creative in order to make it happen. Whether it's an intimate elopement, a small family gathering, or a traditional church wedding, each ceremony creates a bond for a lifetime.

After all the weddings I've officiated, I'm still amazed by the unique touch each couple brings to their special day. From a hippie wedding barefoot in a field, to a short ceremony surrounded only by family in a mountain cabin, or a quick elopement in the apartment of a soldier, each event is special in its own way. My priority is always to help you create a memory that will last a lifetime, even if it seems complicated during the planning phase.

Recently, I have seen weddings performed from balconies, through glass doors, and even socially distanced in fields - our lives must continue, and shared experiences are happier ones. Fortunately, technology provides us with the means to create a perfect and safe ceremony.

My objective is straightforward: to help every couple celebrate their future, regardless of religion, gender, race, or sexual orientation. Everyone deserves happiness, and I am here to make it happen. Contact me, and together we'll find the perfect combination of love and safety.

Note: As an ecumenical ministry, we also advocate for COVID vaccines. Both my Wedding Day Coordinator, Debra, and I have received both initial vaccinations and the booster, and we remain committed to conducting safe and healthy ceremonies.

The officiant was highly responsive and efficiently fulfilled all requirements of the bride within a short period of time. I highly recommend the officiant's services if you are in need of a proficient officiant.

The day was made absolutely perfect by Reverend Max, who was truly wonderful. Despite only planning everything in just one week, his words felt incredibly fitting and made the ceremony truly special. Reverend Max even took the time to write a few words in German for our family members living overseas, which was a very kind gesture. Not only is he personable and warm, but I would highly recommend Reverend Max to anyone for their wedding.

It was a delightful experience working with Reverend Mike who we wholeheartedly endorse to everyone. There could not have been a more ideal person to lead our wedding ceremony. Debra too was a delight to collaborate with. Their professionalism and graciousness were remarkable.

At the eleventh hour, our designated officiant ditched us and we were left stranded. But Debra and Max came to our rescue and stepped up to officiate our wedding without delay. Their swift response was highly appreciated, and we were delighted to receive a CD of Debra's splendid pre-ceremonial and post-ceremonial snapshots. We wholeheartedly endorse By the Power!
