Reviews of Stephanie Shaffer Ceremonies

Better than we could even imagine!!!

Finding an officiant for our wedding was one of the most difficult vendor searches we had. We were interested in a secular wedding that would still appeal to our Catholic families - not the easiest feat! Even more than that, it was important to us that our ceremony be open and accepting of LGBTQ+ folks and not focus heavily on the gender norms weddings can often bring out.

For us, Rev. Stephanie Shaffer was the PERFECT officiant! She was overwhelmingly kind and thoughtful in our coffee dates, took the time to really get to know my husband and I, and wrote the most beautiful ceremony script I have ever heard. Even after the wedding, I had countless loved ones come up to me and say just how lovely and personalized our ceremony was. Multiple people even asked if they could receive a copy of her script! It really was that special.

If you are interested in finding someone who will go above and beyond the call of duty, I highly encourage you to meet with Stephanie!!! Seriously - she even hugged me through a minor stress meltdown when I realized it was going to rain on our wedding day. LOL! She was so fun to work with and such a joy to be around. I am so glad we picked her for our special day!

Like Coming Home

Stephanie made everything easy and she made us feel incredibly at home and comfortable. As we said many times, she was the dumbledore to our hermione and ron.

Forest Hall Wedding

Stephanie did such a great job with our ceremony! She is such a great person and we enjoyed getting her know her throughout this process! She is very flexible and open to trying new things in the ceremony and is there for any and all questions. Our ceremony was absolutely perfect in every way (Thank you Stephanie!!!)!! I highly recommend Stephanie!
