Who will marry us?

Ok so my biggest issue is figuring out who will marry us.  Thought my cousin was ordained, but turns out he isn't.  The FI and I are not church-goes, but we do consider ourselves religious/spiritual and getting married is so intimate I don't feel comfortable just having anyone do it.  Does anyone have any suggestion on where to start or particular people they are using/have used in the Detroit area?    We are ok with a male or female.  Thank you in advance :)

    We are meeting with Kirk from Secular Ceremony and will probably use him. He does any level of religion/spiritualism/whatever you prefer. We also considered using The Wedding Connection.

    We are using Tab Martin of Wishing Well Weddings.
    At least 1/2 the price of any other company we looked at, and very friendly.

    Ditto the Kirk from Secular Ceremonies.  We booked him back in December and I absolutely love him.  Another knottie is getting married on our rehearsal day, so we pushed our rehearsal back so that she could use him too.  That's how much I like him.  He's also ultra reasonable, less than half of a lot of other ministers.

    I've heard that LaDonna is another good one to go with but she was double what Kirk charges.

    I love our officiate Rev. Phillip Rogers.  Will tailor the ceremony to your liking.  His message is different and if you use his vows they are different too.  Every time I read then I start to tear up!  You can google him or his website is www.godnrmarriages.com.  He is very reasonably priced, done a lot of weddings and is in the Detroit area.

    We used Rev. Steve Goodrum - his wife is also ordained. 
    We were hesitant at first but it turned out great and he was so nice and down to earth. And made the entire thing enjoyable.

    Hi,
    Haven't posted in a while and I had to change my screenname when I moved from theknot to the pump! I was July32011!
    Anyway, my Uncle got ordined online at Universal Life Church. It is 100% legal and binding in Michigan.  So you can have your cousin become ordained, it takes only a few minutes!
    Good Luck!
