While planning our wedding, my parents insisted we have a Catholic priest marry my husband and I. We were leery about it at first (because we were not actively practicing), but Father Steve truly exceeded our expectations and really made us feel comfortable with the whole process. He gave us complete creative freedom in writing our ceremony, held our hands through the entire planning process, and was an absolute joy at the wedding itself. I couldn't have envisioned our wedding with anyone else. We highly recommend Fr. Steve!

He was so great to work with and was incredibly helpful. He even gave us a lot of creative power when it came to what was going to be said during our ceremony, which was amazing since we didn’t want too long of a ceremony. He was funny and charismatic. A lot of people talked to us after the ceremony and said how great of a job he did and now whenever we go to another wedding within either family every officiant gets compared to Fr. Steve. I cannot recommend him enough.

Father Steve was absolutely amazing! My wife and I were looking for a Catholic Priest for months prior to our wedding and when we found Father Steve on-line, we knew he was perfect. First off, Father Steve offers premarital counseling which I highly recommend. Unfortunately, my wife and I were extremely busy throughout the summer months but Father Steve made time for us several Sunday's to meet and discuss our current and future expectations for marriage. We both found it very helpful and if you do the classes, you'll get a discount on your marriage certificate which is worth it.

Throughout our meetings together, Father Steve really got to know us which he was able to portray towards the wedding. We technically had a destination wedding (Duluth, MN), but Father Steve still made time out of his schedule to be there in a timely manner for our walk through the morning of our wedding. We didn't have a wedding planner (my wife was the wedding planner) but Father Steve took initiative right away and told us how we need to assemble, who walks out with who and when, and a brief summary of the ceremony and overall expectations (it's like he's done this before)! He helped out so much and he made the walk through, and more importantly, the wedding ceremony go as smoothly as possible.

During our wedding ceremony, he really calmed our nerves and made it so much fun. He was interacting with the crowd and making everyone laugh which was exactly what we had wished for. By the end of the night, everyone kept talking about Father Steve and how much fun he made our ceremony.. he truly made our special day even more special and I would highly recommend him to anyone!
