1. Licensed Courthouse Official
Get Legally Married
I, Island Mike, am a bona fide, licensed courthouse officiant. Which means, yours truly, is permitted to perform legal weddings anywhere within the boundaries and waters of the US Virgin Islands. So rest assured, you will be official and legal when I’m done with you.
2. Exclusive Marriage license Concierge Service
100% Stress-Free License Process
The most unromantic part of getting married is having to apply for a marriage license. So I will literally take care of every step of the license application process for you. I will fill in all the applicable documents, file them with the courthouse and pay the $200 filing fee. Then I’ll bring the license to your ceremony and then file it back at the courthouse after the wedding. I’ll then mail you the certified copies after they’re issued.
So sit back, relax and know that I’m doing everything for you!
3. Assisting with choosing & reserving a ceremony venue
Beaches, Gardens and Jetties, oh my
St. Thomas is a gorgeous island. The highlights are the beaches. And 85% of my weddings are on a beach. 12% are at Pretty Klip Point a jetty near Sapphire Beach and 3% are at another venue such as a garden or dark alleyway. I’ll share all the spots and give my thoughts and recommendations. Most of the venues charge a site fee ranging from $100-$600+ depending on size and duration.
4. Fresh Tropical Flower bouquet and Boutonniere
Bright, vibrant tropical flowers
A standard size bouquet and boutonniere including gorgeous, tropical flowers. If you have colors you like just share with me and I’ll get the order in. .
5. Roundtrip transportation for couple & 2 Guests
Easy door-to-door service
Included is transportation for up to 4 people. We’ll pick you up wherever you are – a hotel, villa or cruise ship – and drive you to the ceremony venue. Afterwards we’ll take you wherever you want to go. If you have more guests we can arrange for their transportation at an additional cost. Also, the transportation is only for one vehicle so if you don’t want to see each other before the ceremony we’d have to line up additional transportation.
6. Schedule and Manage Wedding Vendors
We communicate with your ceremony vendors and make sure they know where/when to be
If you hire a videographer, baker and musician, we will be in communication with them leading up to your ceremony to ensure everyone is where they need to be. So you won’t have to talk to a soul if you don’t want to. 🙂
7. speaker and Music Coordination
Music is the soul of the ceremony
Even if you would like a live musician we’ll bring a powerful bluetooth-enabled speaker to play any playlist or song you create for your ceremony. We’ll also make sure the songs are played when and in the order you prescribe.
8. Arch & Aisle Provided by Styled in the VI
An elegant addition
Included is a rental, delivery and setup of a 2-post bamboo or copper arch from the island’s premier decor company Styled in the VI. You can also upgrade to other arches – circle, 4-post and others. Just let me know what you have in mind and I can get a quote.
9. Detailed wedding-Day timeline for you and guests
So you and your guests can relax and enjoy the day
I’ll map out the day so you and your guests know exactly where and when to be at any given point in the day. This is so you aren’t trying to stress about what you should be doing at any point on your wedding day. And you won’t have to worry about your “less punctual” guests. Maybe. 🙂
10. St. Thomas Travel guide for you and Your guests
Making your travel experience life-changing
I’ve put together a guide on all the important information you’ll need for your trip to St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. So whether you are coming via cruise ship or airplane, I’ll answer important questions and share all my insights and highlights of the island.
11. Couple’s Champagne toast
Grab the bubbly
After the ceremony you’ll pop a bottle and the two of you will toast your marriage! Great for photos and for a quick buzz (as we know, almost everything is better with a buzz). 🙂 Or, if you prefer, we can do sparkling cider.
12. Signature Island Mike Video Montage of your Wedding
We will never forget
Cell phones these days are pretty incredible. I’ll take video and photos of your day and create a montage for your day. While I’m not a professional videographer or editor, you’ll have something to watch (and share) over and over again to relive your special day.
13. Elegant Ceremony Seating For Your Guests
From 2-80 guests
Beautiful and rich whisky-colored chairs for your wedding ceremony. We’ll get them rented, delivered and setup before your first guest arrives. After the ceremony we’ll break them down and have them removed from the scene of the crime without you having to lift a finger.
Think of me as your wedding wingman
After years of officiating weddings (and observing behind the scenes) as a side hustle, I saw too many exhausted, stressed-out couples who definitely didn’t seem relaxed and stress-free: like they were on vacation. And I said to myself, “Mike, that ain’t right.”
So I took all my knowledge, put it in a bottle, and let it drift out to sea…
Just kidding. That would be crazy!
I kept the good parts that actually worked, distilled it, and replaced the parts that no one enjoyed with things that matter. Things like having fun at your wedding, having a stress-free day, and being able to choose your own details.
I also threw in things my couples didn’t know were options: like paying only for the services you want (instead of paying a premium for “included” things you don’t).
THE RESULT?
🗸 A PLANNING PROCESS THAT’S STRAIGHTFORWARD AND EASY, WITHOUT BEING LIKE EVERY OTHER WEDDING PACKAGE
🗸 A WEDDING DAY THAT IS PERSONALIZED AND FOCUSED ON THE DETAILS THAT ARE IMPORTANT TO YOU.
🗸 MOST IMPORTANTLY, COUPLES WHO AREN’T STRESSED ABOUT THEIR IMPENDING WEDDING, BUT INSTEAD ARE EXCITED TO CELEBRATE!
Heavy right? I know, I’ve got chills too.
You Might Be Wondering
01. Is it really this easy?
Yes. And that’s by design. Planning your island wedding doesn’t have to be difficult, tedious, or time-consuming. My team and I are ready to set our cocktails down and make some wedding magic happen.
02. Do you plan elopements, vow renewals, same-sex weddings?

Two brides? Two grooms? Shouldn’t have to ask. It’s going to be double the fun.

Wedding Planning Advice
We think planning a wedding should feel less like a research project and more like skipping the line at TSA – with margaritas, that are frozen, with limes.
