Welcome — and thank you for your interest in my services!
I’m Michelle Drury, a professional wedding officiant, South Carolina Notary Public, and ULC Ordained Minister, fully authorized to perform legal marriage ceremonies in South Carolina and Georgia.
My passion for helping others has always guided my life. in 2017, I followed my heart and created Simply Marry Us to help couples enjoy romantic, meaningful wedding ceremonies in beautiful settings — at prices that don’t break the bank. Since then, I’ve had the joy of officiating over 600 weddings and earning 5-star reviews on Google and WeddingWire, along with the WeddingWire Couples’ Choice Award every year since 2019.
Before becoming a wedding officiant, I spent nearly 20 years in healthcare, working in hospitals across NC and SC as a Surgical Technologist and Blood Specialist. I graduated with honors from Carolinas College of Health Science and earned a Business Administration degree from Montreat College in Charlotte, NC.
It’s truly an honor each and every time I get to be part of such a special moment in a couple’s life. I can't wait to help you celebrate your love, your way. 💍❤️
Elopements are close to Michelle’s heart — she eloped with her husband! But whether you’re planning an intimate elopement or a full-scale celebration, Michelle brings the same warmth, care, and professionalism to every ceremony she leads.
