Getting Married Should Be the Easiest Part of Your Wedding.

Whether you're looking for a simple marriage license signing, a courthouse alternative, an intimate elopement, or a personalized wedding ceremony, you're in the right place.

I'm Nichole Bertucci, owner of A Simple I Do, and for more than 17 years I've been helping Michigan couples get married with a process that's simple, personal, and completely stress-free. I proudly serve Holly, Fenton, Clarkston, Waterford, Milford, and communities throughout Southeast Michigan, traveling to the location that's meaningful to you.

What started in 2007 as a favor for my sister quickly became my calling. Since then, I've had the privilege of officiating thousands of weddings, and one thing has remained true: every couple deserves a ceremony that reflects who they are. Whether you're planning a quick Sign & Go appointment or the wedding ceremony you've always imagined, your experience should feel genuine, joyful, and uniquely yours.

Couples often tell me it feels like I've known them for years. That's exactly the experience I want to create. I take the time to learn your story, calm your nerves, and deliver a ceremony that feels warm, authentic, and effortless. From our first conversation to signing your marriage license, my goal is to make the entire process easy so you can simply enjoy one of the happiest days of your life.

From simple Sign & Go appointments to fully customized wedding ceremonies, every couple receives the same care, professionalism, and genuine excitement for their love story. You'll have an experienced officiant who guides you through every step, creates a ceremony that feels like you, and helps make your wedding day relaxed, meaningful, and memorable.
​
However you choose to get married, your ceremony should feel authentic, joyful, and completely your own. I'd be honored to help you begin this next chapter with a ceremony that's every bit as memorable as your love story.

Meet Nichole Bertucci - The person behind  A Simple I Do

Planning a wedding comes with plenty of decisions. Choosing the person who will stand with you as you say "I do" shouldn't feel like one of the stressful ones.

I'm Nichole Bertucci, the owner and officiant behind A Simple I Do. For more than 17 years, I've had the privilege of marrying thousands of couples across Michigan—from simple license signings and intimate backyard ceremonies to elegant wedding celebrations surrounded by family and friends.

No two couples are alike, and I believe your ceremony shouldn't be either.

Whether you're planning months in advance or deciding to get married this week, my goal is always the same: to create a ceremony that feels genuine, relaxed, and unmistakably yours.

How It All Started

What began as an opportunity to help a couple in love turned into a calling I never expected.

From my very first ceremony, I realized something important. Couples weren't looking for someone to simply read words from a page—they wanted someone who could calm their nerves, celebrate their story, and create a moment they would remember long after the wedding day.

That's exactly what I've dedicated my career to doing.

Over the years I've had the honor of officiating weddings in parks, backyards, wedding venues, private homes, restaurants, breweries, chapels, and just about every beautiful corner of Michigan. Every ceremony reminds me that love doesn't have to fit into one specific style. Your wedding should reflect who you are.

What You Can Expect

When you work with me, you'll have someone who is organized, experienced, and genuinely invested in making your day feel effortless.

I'll guide you through the marriage license process, answer your questions, help you build a ceremony that reflects your relationship, and make sure everything comes together smoothly on your wedding day.

Most couples tell me they feel like they're talking to an old friend instead of someone they just hired. That's one of the greatest compliments I could receive.

My Style

I believe the best ceremonies are warm, heartfelt, and authentic.

You'll never feel rushed.

You'll never feel like just another appointment on my calendar.

Instead, you'll have a ceremony that's personal, engaging, and centered on what matters most—your commitment to each other.

Whether your wedding includes two people or two hundred, I'll help create a ceremony that feels comfortable, meaningful, and memorable.

Why Couples Choose Me

For more than 17 years, couples throughout Michigan have trusted me because they know they'll receive:

* A ceremony written with care and attention to your relationship
* Clear communication from your first inquiry through your wedding day
* Guidance through every step of the process
* Professionalism paired with a warm, approachable personality
* An officiant who truly loves celebrating love stories

A Few Things About Me

When I'm not officiating weddings, you'll usually find me spending time with my family, enjoying a good cup of coffee, exploring local Michigan communities, or planning the next adventure. I believe life's biggest moments—and its simplest ones—deserve to be celebrated.

Helping couples begin their marriage has been one of the greatest joys of my life, and I never take for granted the trust that's placed in me every time someone asks me to officiate their wedding.

I'd be honored to be part of yours.

**If you're looking for a Michigan wedding officiant who will make the process easy, the ceremony personal, and your wedding day unforgettable, I'd love to meet you.**

Picture

I believe getting married should be simple, meaningful, and accessible—without requiring you to spend thousands of dollars or turn your wedding into something it was never meant to be. The cost of getting married should not cause you to go into debt and thus my business model was born. As a highly sought after wedding officiant, Each meeting I have with a couple holds space in my memory and heart. I became a wedding officiant so that you can be celebrated and loved. Your wedding ceremony can be both affordable, magical and filled with all the warmth, kindness and love you can imagine.

My Why 

WHY I BOOK THE WAY I DO Because my family life matters, too. I intentionally book weddings during select days and hours because I believe in building a business that supports my life—not one that takes it over. My family time matters. My weekends matter. My time to rest and recharge matters. When I’m with my couples, I’m fully present. When I’m off the clock, I’m present for the people and life I love.
​
My booking hours aren’t a limitation. They’re an intentional choice to build a business that supports the life I want to live.
