What Is a Sign and Go Wedding? Here’s Why It’s Perfect for Michigan Couples

Not every couple wants a big wedding — and that’s okay. If you’re looking for a fast, affordable, and legal way to get married in Michigan without the pressure of a traditional ceremony, a Sign and Go wedding might be exactly what you need.

As a trusted Michigan wedding officiant, Nichole Bertucci of A Simple I Do specializes in helping couples tie the knot with ease — no frills, just love and legal paperwork.

What Is a Sign and Go Wedding?A Sign and Go wedding is exactly what it sounds like:
A quick, no-ceremony option where the couple signs their Michigan marriage license with a legal officiant, and it’s officially done — you’re married!
✅ No vows
✅ No rings
✅ No guests required
✅ Just the two of you, a witness (or two), and an officiant to make it legal
It’s the simplest way to get married in Michigan.

Why Do Couples Choose a Sign and Go Wedding?There are plenty of reasons couples love this option:
  • You’re planning a bigger celebration later
  • You want to be legally married now (for insurance, benefits, or immigration reasons)
  • You’re eloping and keeping it private
  • You just don’t want a traditional wedding — and that’s totally valid
This is a no-pressure, no-drama way to make it official.

How Does It Work?Getting married with Nichole’s Sign and Go service is simple and stress-free:
  1. Get Your Marriage License
    Apply through your Michigan county clerk’s office (usually Oakland County for local couples).
  2. Schedule Your Signing
    Nichole offers quick appointment-based signings in Holly, Michigan — usually weekday mornings or early afternoons.
  3. Bring Your Witness(es)
    Michigan requires two adult witnesses. Bring friends, family, or even Nichole can help arrange someone if needed.
  4. Sign and You’re Married!
    No fuss. No fluff. Just love, ink, and official paperwork.
💵 Cost: Only $110
📍 Location: Holly, Michigan (or ask about mobile options)

Who Is This Wedding Option Perfect For?
  • Couples who want a quick and legal wedding with no extras
  • People planning a destination wedding later
  • Anyone who’s done with the stress of planning
  • Those with a tight budget who still want it to be done right
Nichole brings warmth, professionalism, and just enough celebration to make it feel special — even in the simplest moments.
