Heartfelt Ceremonies for Big Sky Love

I’m Michelle, and I am honored to help make your special day truly unforgettable. As an Ordained Minister and a Montana Notary Public, I have the legal authority to officiate your ceremony and ensure every detail of your union is official under Montana law. My services are inclusive and affirming for all couples—your love is truly welcome here.

What I love most is hearing your unique stories. From our first meeting, I am eager to learn about your journey together—how you met, what you cherish most, and the little things that make you smile. I take the time to truly understand your vision so I can craft a ceremony that feels personal, sincere, and heartfelt. Whether you choose to include your own custom vows or prefer a traditional service, I am here to help you start your "happily-ever-after" in the most meaningful way.
