About Michael Chadwick, Owner

Non-Denominational Minister

I have been of service for well over six hundred weddings since 2008. This is the kind of trusted experience you want and need in a professional wedding officiant.

I have been a non-denominational interfaith minister since 2014, performing many wedding ceremonies and funeral services each year.

My fees are affordable given my extensive experience in the industry, as well as for the attentive care I give to each and every one of my clients.

★★★★★ · April 2026 · Willowbrook Weddings

From the beginning, Michael made us feel comfortable and we trusted that he would do a fantastic job at our April 17, 2026 wedding in Bridgeville, Delaware. When we told him what we were looking for in an officiant and the values that were important to both of us, he got it right away and he was able to accommodate our small add ons to the readings. His excitement, patience, and personality came through each time we spoke to him, and you could tell that he’s doing what he loves. His prices are also very fair and he’ll be completely honest in the services he provides, which helps add to his credibility and trustworthiness. Because of Chadwick Weddings, we had a script that emphasized “partners,” a term that we have used for years as loving partners, future spouses, and future parents - this led a perfect path for our own vows. ✨ We are so happy we chose Michael as our officiant and would recommend Chadwick Weddings for any future event

Where do I even begin??? My husband and I recently got married on 9.19.25 and Michael was our officiant. From the very first zoom call with Michael, I instantly knew he was the one I wanted to marry us. Funny story... I had 3 more appointments with officiants after my appointment with Michael and immediately canceled them all. From his professionalism, to his ability to connect with you on a personal level, Michael did it all. My biggest worry with hiring an officiant was "I didn't want a stranger that I never met to handle the most important part of our day." That fear immediately went away when I met Michael, it was as if he's been a friend of ours for a long period of time. Michael was extremely informational and answered/ helped with any questions we had, and even gave some recommendations that I ended up using on our day! Clearly his time doing this has helped and shown tremendously. He sent us over a draft of his speech for the ceremony so we could read it and make adjustments as we saw fit, but there wasn't much to adjust! He nailed every detail on the head of how I envisioned our ceremony to be! Lighthearted, a little comical and personal all in one. I couldn't recommend Michael enough for your wedding, he was simply just extraordinary. If you were worrisome about hiring an officiant, let this be your sign to hire Michael! Thank you Michael!!!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Michael as our officiant and we couldn’t have been more happy with how he helped make our wedding day so special. From the start, we knew Michael would be the perfect fit. His energy and warmth made it so easy to talk with him, and he was so informed about lots of different aspects of wedding planning. He had excellent communication and always answered any questions we had quickly and efficiently. On the day of the wedding, he exceeded our expectations. He brought such a fun, upbeat, and joyful energy to our ceremony that guests loved, and they continued to let me know after the wedding how much they loved him. He definitely made our ceremony text uniquely us. If you’re looking for an officiant who is professional, charismatic, and knows exactly how to make a ceremony both meaningful and fun, we cannot recommend him highly enough, he will not disappoint!

Michael Chadwick was absolutely wonderful as our wedding officiant! From beginning to end, he made our ceremony feel personal, meaningful, and completely true to who Tyler and I are as a couple. Our ceremony was everything we hoped it would be—romantic and heartfelt, with just the right amount of humor. Michael made it feel warm and genuine rather than overly formal, and he helped tell our story in a way that felt like us. There were happy tears, laughter, and so many special moments that we will always remember. He made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process and helped create a ceremony that celebrated not only our marriage, but the life and family we’ve built together. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to officially pronounce us husband and wife. Thank you, Michael, for being such an important part of one of the most special moments of our lives. 🤍

Michael was the perfect officiant for our wedding ceremony! He made this entire process so smooth and easy for us, even from our first phone call months prior to the big day. Michael is incredibly kind and supportive, but what we loved most was his ability to share wedding knowledge and expertise with us as we navigated this journey. From start to finish, Michael answered all of our questions and made sure understood our vision. The ceremony was absolutely perfect, and exactly what we wanted. We attribute all of that to Michael! Our family and friends loved meeting Michael, and it was a genuine pleasure to have him at our wedding!

We could not have asked for a better officiant than Michael Chadwick for our wedding. From the very beginning, he was professional, organized, and genuinely cared about making our ceremony personal and meaningful. He was super helpful throughout the entire wedding process and was always available whenever we had questions or needed guidance, which made everything so much less stressful for us.

Michael took the time to get to know us as a couple, and it truly showed during the ceremony. He spoke with confidence, warmth, and humor, which helped make everyone feel comfortable and engaged. So many of our guests complimented how beautiful and heartfelt the ceremony was afterward. He made one of the most important parts of our wedding day feel seamless and special.

If you are looking for an officiant who is reliable, personable, supportive, and truly passionate about what he does, we highly recommend Michael Chadwick!
