Dream Come True

5 Stars across the board! My wife and I wanted something more natural to us, something unique, and Stephen delivered that and more. His storytelling style is that of a narrator in a romance novel. The personalized story that he created with the help of our answers to specific questions is something I will always keep a copy of. Would 10/10 recommend!

One Invite You Will Definitely Not Regret!

The last thing you need when planning a wedding is extra stress, especially regarding the ceremony! My husband and I had only a few weeks to work through the whole process and it could not have gone smoother: start to finish – Stephen is stellar. He is a pleasure to work with, speak with and to invite into this momentous day in your life. He is efficient, utterly responsive and his sense of humor adds a perfectly placed lightness to all of it. Once we worked through the details, he seamlessly integrated our stories with the religious elements we requested and the result was a beautiful and inimitably “us” ceremony. Stephen officiates with warmth, an understanding of the moment and an obvious skill – which has everyone in the room captivated. To a person, we were all in agreement - Stephen takes it to another level.

Best In Class Creator of a Memorable Wedding!

Stephen was there every step of the way to coach us through sharing our unique love story. He is very responsive, detailed, and, most importantly, genuinely cares about creating a unique and memorable experience. Each of our guests stated, "Best wedding ever attended," with Stephen's officiating as a significant highlight. I highly recommend Stephen!
