Steve is awesome! We absolutely loved him. He took the time to get to know us and our story and incorporated that into the ceremony. He kept it light and comedic just as we asked him to. We felt so comfortable and as if he were apart of the family. We got compliments all night about how unique and amazing our ceremony was. We love you Steve!!! Thank you for everything!

Great Person

Steve is such a fun person to be around that has a contagious positivity. He made us feel comfortable from the start and helped walk us through everything we needed to know. The ceremony was perfect, romantic with a touch of humor, which I felt really fit our style. We plan to stay in touch with Steve in the future and will always remember how special that day was. Thank you for everything Steve!

Steve was amazing!!!!!!!

Everyone loved the ceremony and Steve was so fun to work with from the first meeting all the way to marrying us. Everyone thought he was a family member too... I loved having Steve as the officiant in our wedding. If you want the wedding ceremony of your dreams, you HAVE to give Steve a call. He's the best! I plan on giving him a call to grab a beverage the next time I'm in town...

Thanks again Steve!
