About
To introduce myself, my birth name is Michelle Amore. I was born in New Haven, Connecticut, to an Italian family made of love and pride. I went through the normal school years graduating in 1970 and on to the University of New Haven where I studied Business Management and Accounting. Since 1987 I've been running a lucrative business with my husband and another, Perfectly Posh llc Candy Buffets & Tablescapes that I founded in 2010 and still operating in the wedding and events industry.
Because of the love I have for this industry Officiate My Wedding CT was formed. As a Justice of the Peace and Ordained Minister, I specialize in providing couples with a wedding ceremony that reflects who they are, whether its a traditional ceremony or something unique and out of the box, a single or mixed religious ceremony, non-religious, civil union, vow renewal or same-sex union. I also love to incorporate rituals such as Handfasting, Candle Lighting, Sand Ceremony and more.
I take great pride in creating a ceremony tailored to your needs and will craft a beautiful ceremony from your love and input that will make your day special.
Our Process, Rates & Fees
It's wonderful to be part of such a special moment. Call me a romantic, I believe in the spirit of love and the hope it represents. I discovered what a rewarding and beautiful experience it is to help couples plan one of the greatest moments of their lives and more of an opportunity to experience that kind of joy and promise over and over again.
