Weddings, Elopements, Vow Renewals, and More!
Your Wedding, Your Way!
We’re a pair of Licensed Marriage Officiants based in Mesquite, Nevada, and we believe your wedding ceremony should be as unique as you are.
Whether you’re planning an elegant ceremony at a hotel resort, a beautiful celebration in a ballroom, or something a little more personal in your own backyard, we’re happy to be part of it. We’ll work with you to create a memorable ceremony that feels like your wedding, not something pulled from a script.
And if your idea of the perfect wedding is a little outside the box, even better.
We’ll perform ceremonies in traditional venues, on a desert trail with your boots in the dirt, or just about anywhere else your imagination takes you. Want to say your vows before jumping out of a perfectly good airplane? We can do that too.
From simple and intimate to completely unforgettable, we’re here to make your wedding ceremony personal, fun, and memorable.
Mesquite, Nevada and surrounding areas. Your wedding, your way.
Ken brings more than 50 years of professional photography experience to the team and is by trade a retired professional photographer. He knows how to capture the big moments, the little moments, and everything in between. He can create custom photography packages to fit your wedding, whether you want a few great photos to remember the day or a complete collection of photographs that lets you re-live it for years to come.
With nearly 5 years of experience and over 160 ceremonies performed, Ken knows how to make a wedding ceremony feel special, comfortable, and meaningful. He’s our traditional officiant, equally at home performing a beautiful ceremony at a casino or ballroom as he is in the comfort of your own home. Ken brings experience, professionalism, and a calm presence to every ceremony, helping couples enjoy the moment without worrying about what happens next.
Ken is also an accomplished professional photographer, with more than 50 years behind the camera. If you want to capture the memories as well as make them, Ken can create a custom photography plan to fit your needs as well as your budget. From the first kiss to the moments you didn't even know were happening, he can help make sure your wedding memories last long after the ceremony is over.
Michael is the off-the-beaten-path officiant of the duo. He’s just as comfortable performing a ceremony in a hotel room or backyard as he is standing with you in the desert, riding ATVs, floating in a hot air balloon, or getting ready to jump out of an airplane. If you have a unique idea for your ceremony, there’s a pretty good chance he’ll say, “Sounds like fun!”
Michael also believes everyone deserves the opportunity to celebrate their love their way. Being an inclusive officiant, he welcomes couples of all backgrounds, ages, and walks of life.
It doesn’t have to be expensive. When Michael married his wife (at the Chapel of the Flowers Las Vegas wedding chapel over 26 years ago), they couldn’t afford a big, traditional wedding. That experience stuck with him and today helps couples who may be in the same situation. A meaningful wedding doesn't have to be an expensive wedding. Whether you're planning a simple backyard ceremony, in the hotel room before hitting the tables, an affordable elopement, a vow renewal, or something completely unconventional, he’s here to help make it special without making it unnecessarily expensive.
For him, it’s not about how much you spend or where you get married. It’s about creating a ceremony that feels like you. If that happens to be in the backyard catered by neighbors, great. If it happens on an ATV in the desert, that’s fine too.
Whether you're planning a traditional wedding, an intimate elopement, a vow renewal, or a ceremony that doesn't fit neatly into a category, we're happy to help. Big celebration or small gathering, casino ballroom or backyard, we're here to make your ceremony personal and memorable.

Mesquite offers more than beautiful desert scenery. It's a place where you can slow down, celebrate your relationship, and create memories together. Whether you're visiting from out of town or calling Southern Nevada home, we'd love to help make your ceremony part of your Mesquite experience.
Your wedding should reflect who you are as a couple, not what tradition says you need. Maybe that means a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers, a favorite keepsake, wildflowers from the desert, or something completely unexpected. Whether you embrace tradition or do things your own way, we believe the little details should have meaning to you.
Your Wedding, Your Way.
