Michael
Ordained Minister in Geneva, New York
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I became an ordained minister and wedding officiant to expand the services offered through M&L Entertainment, Inc. Over the years, I have had the privilege of being part of countless weddings as a professional DJ and master of ceremonies. I realized that many couples wanted a seamless, personalized experience from someone they already knew and trusted. Becoming an ordained minister allowed me to officiate weddings with the same professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail that I have always provided through my entertainment services. My goal is to help create meaningful ceremonies that reflect each couple's unique love story while offering the convenience of having one experienced professional coordinate both the ceremony and the celebration. It is another way for me to serve people during one of the most important and memorable days of their lives. Your wedding ceremony is the heart of your wedding day. It should be personal, meaningful, and a true reflection of your love story—not just a script read by a stranger.
As an ordained minister with M&L Entertainment, Inc., I believe every couple deserves a ceremony that is warm, heartfelt, and uniquely their own. I take the time to get to know you, understand your relationship, and create a ceremony that celebrates your personalities, values, and vision for your special day.
Where are you from?
I am originally from Brooklyn, NY and I moved and lived in Virginia for over 25 years. I came back to New York because of my career and now live in North Central NY. A small city called Geneva, NY located in the heart of the Finger Lakes Region.
What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
My mission is simple: to help create one of the most important moments of your life with sincerity, professionalism, and genuine care. Your wedding is not just another event—it is the beginning of your next chapter, and I would be honored to help you tell your story.
