In the heart of Franklin, Tennessee, there’s a place where legal gets personal, and personal gets unforgettable. Legally Yours isn’t your typical notary or wedding service—we’re flipping the script on how Middle Tennessee handles life’s biggest (and sometimes messiest) milestones.

Founded by comedian-turned-entrepreneur Michael Parise, Legally Yours combines professional notary services with charisma, convenience, and a touch of class. Whether you’re sealing the deal with a signature, walking down the aisle, or… walking away from one—we’re here to guide you through it, legally and with heart.

💍 Weddings With Personality

Tired of the cookie-cutter courthouse vows? At Legally Yours, we marry people the way they want to be married. That means:

Traditional ceremonies
Funny, lighthearted “roast” weddings
Elopements with flair
LGBTQ+ inclusive celebrations
Last-minute ceremonies with zero judgment

Michael Parise brings decades of stage experience, charisma, and timing to each wedding he officiates—because saying “I Do” should feel like you.

✍️ Notarization Without the B.S.

Middle Tennessee residents: say goodbye to hunting down a notary at the bank or post office. At Legally Yours, we offer:

Mobile notary services – we come to you
Remote Online Notary (RON) – legally recognized in TN
Document witnessing & identity verification
Loan signings & real estate closings
General notary work for affidavits, POAs, & more

And yes, we’re licensed, bonded, and insured—with a gold seal of trust.

💔 From "I Do" to "I Don’t"

Let’s face it: not every love story has a happy ending. When the honeymoon is over, we offer a little light-hearted closure with our “I Don’t” Ceremony”—a symbolic, funny, and cathartic way to say goodbye and legally move forward.

Sometimes, the best way to start a new chapter is with a laugh and a signed affidavit.
