I'm April Lester, a wedding officiant based in Wheeler, IL, passionate about creating heartfelt and unforgettable ceremonies. I believe every love story deserves a unique celebration, and I'm here to help you bring your vision to life. From intimate gatherings to grand celebrations, I offer personalized service with a focus on inclusivity and respect for your individual needs. * I specialize in: * LGBTQ+ Weddings * Elopements * Vow Renewals * Commitment Ceremonies * Weddings for Incarcerated Individuals I am a strong advocate for love in all its forms and am honored to be a part of your special day. Contact me today for a free consultation and let's start planning your dream wedding! I also use square as a way to pay by credit card/ debt cards. No need for cash. Unfortunately because of people backing out of dates I do have to ask for a deposit to hold your date if you are preplanning. I have had to turn down couples and others backed out. Looking for a review? I don't ask for reviews because your wedding is something that is yours and some don't like to leave them for their own safety reasons. I will continue to back them on that.

HitchedByMitch exists to offer you and your loved one a personalized and meaningful wedding ceremony experience. I can be there to take part in as much of the planning as your individual needs require. No location or idea is too far out there for me to try and accommodate. This is a wonderful and deeply personal experience for you and your future spouse, and I will not force you into some cookie-cutter ideal of a wedding ceremony. Ask me about emcee services to make a unique and fun reception! I am ordained through the Universal Life Church and American Marriage Ministries, but I also have a background in youth ministry through the United Methodist church. Ceremonies offered will run the spectrum from a high church experience to a simple, sweet, and secular 10-minute ceremony, from traditional to nontraditional. Also, as a staunch ally, I am thrilled to help with your LGBTQ ceremonies Please reach out to me about any special requests or to get information about my packages and pricing. I look forward to helping you and being part of the best day of your life.
