Our Mission

Meaningful, Heartfelt Ceremonies in Michigan

A wedding ceremony doesn’t have to be complicated. What matters most is that it feels true to your love story, your style, and your values. At Love Spoken Here, I create ceremonies that are personal, joyful, and heartfelt. Whether you're planning a legal signing at the courthouse, an elopement along the Lake Michigan shoreline, or an intimate wedding with close family and friends, I'll help you mark the moment in a way that feels authentic and unforgettable.

Every couple deserves a ceremony that reflects who they are—no matter the size, setting, or timeline. Whether you’re getting married next week or next year, I’ll work with you to create something meaningful, inclusive, and truly special. Together, we’ll craft a ceremony that celebrates your next chapter and honors the love that brought you here.

About Me

Ordained Wedding Officiant in Michigan

Hi, I'm Kim!

Love has always moved me in the quiet ways it shows up, in the promises we make, and in the stories we carry. I created Love Spoken Here because I believe your wedding deserves more than a script. It should reflect who you are, honor your journey, and set the tone for the next chapter of your marriage.

Before becoming an officiant, I was a speaker and storyteller, helping people find the right words for life’s most significant moments. Now, I bring that same care and intention to every wedding ceremony, elopement, and vow renewal. Whether you’re planning an intimate marriage ceremony at the courthouse or a joyful wedding along the Lake Michigan shoreline, I’ll help you create something authentic, meaningful, and unforgettable.

As an ordained officiant and proud member of the International Association of Professional Wedding Officiants (IAPWO), I welcome all love stories. I serve couples across Michigan — from courthouse-style elopements to lakeside vow renewals — with warmth, clarity, and heart.

If you're looking for a ceremony that feels personal and true to your love story, I'd be honored to stand beside you and help bring your vision to life.

Why Couples Choose Love Spoken Here

This isn’t just a job to me — it’s a joy and an honor. I’m here to help tell your love story the moment it begins.

Choosing a wedding officiant is one of the most important decisions you’ll make about your day — and I don’t take that lightly. The person you choose should be flexible, personable, detail-oriented, and calm under pressure. Most of all, they should create a ceremony that feels like you.

My relationship with you begins with a free consultation because building a connection is essential. Our session will be brief but informative — a chance for you to share your story and ask questions to see if I’m the right fit. Every couple is unique, and your ceremony should be too.

Are you or your partner a member of the armed services, a first responder, teacher, doctor, or nurse? Love Spoken Here offers a Heroes with Heart discount in recognition of your service. I’ve been inspired by the heroes in my own life and built this business to honor those who give so much to others. I’m also a registered volunteer with Wish Upon a Wedding, offering my services as an ordained officiant to couples facing challenging circumstances.

I’m proud to serve couples across Michigan — from courthouse weddings in Ann Arbor to intimate elopements along the Lake Michigan shoreline. Let’s start with a conversation and create something unforgettable together.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to some of the most common questions couples ask about working with Love Spoken Here. From legal requirements to personal touches, these FAQs will help you feel confident and prepared as you plan your wedding ceremony.

Are you legally able to officiate our wedding?

Yes! I’m an ordained wedding officiant based in Michigan with the legal authority to perform marriages in this state. My credentials are also recognized in several other states, including Indiana, and my ordination is transferable wherever state laws allow. If you’re planning a ceremony outside of Michigan, I’ll confirm the local requirements to ensure everything is handled properly and your marriage is fully valid.

Do you officiate for LGBTQ+ and inclusive couples?

Absolutely. Love is universal, and I proudly create wedding ceremonies that honor all identities and relationships with respect and authenticity.

What happens if you can't make it due to illness or emergency?

In the unlikely event of an emergency, I have a trusted network of professional officiants to provide backup. Your ceremony will never be left uncovered.

Can we personalize our ceremony?

Yes! No two weddings are alike. Your ceremony will reflect your values and story - with custom vows, readings, rituals, and details that make it uniquely yours.

Will we review the ceremony before the big day?

Yes. For full wedding ceremonies, we'll meet virtually before your wedding to review and finalize the script together.

How is the marriage license handled?

I'll guide you through the Michigan marriage license process, send reminders before your wedding, and file the license afterward. Once submitted, you'll receive confirmation directly from the county clerk.

Do you travel for weddings?

Yes! I officiate weddings and elopements across Michigan. I'm based near Ann Arbor and also serve couples along the Lake Michigan shoreline, including South Haven. Travel beyond 30 miles from Ann Arbor is quoted individually, so whether your ceremony is local or lakeside, I'll be happy to create something special for you.

Are your fees transparent?

Yes. My package prices are listed clearly, with optional add-ons available. Travel fees apply only for ceremonies more than 30 miles outside Ann Arbor, and everything is discussed upfront so there are no surprises.

Do you offer discounts for military or first responders?

Yes! Love Spoken Here offers a Heroes with Heart discount in recognition of service from military members, first responders, teachers, doctors, and nurses.
