We truly couldn’t have asked for a better officiant than Mary. From start to finish, she was collaborative, warm, and so easy to work with. She took the time to really understand us as a couple and worked closely with us to craft a ceremony that was deeply personal, meaningful, and true to who we are.

Mary was so respectful of our ideas and made us feel heard every step of the way. On our wedding day, she delivered the ceremony beautifully—conveying everything we wanted with the perfect balance of emotion, sincerity, and joy.

Thank you, Mary, for helping make our day so special!

We had a wonderful experience with Reverend Mary Stone as our officiant. She was warm, professional, and genuinely invested in making our ceremony feel personal and meaningful. From the first conversation, she took time to understand our story and what we wanted, which made the ceremony feel authentic and special. Her experience really showed in how calm, organized, and confident she was throughout the process. On the wedding day, she created such a comfortable atmosphere and delivered a beautiful ceremony that felt heartfelt and natural. We received so many compliments from our guests and would highly recommend her to any couple looking for an experienced and caring officiant.

We met Mary through The Knot app, and from the moment we connected, it just felt right. Her energy is so warm and gravitating — the same beautiful presence we felt during our virtual meetings carried all the way to our in-person moment on our wedding day.

Mary truly won the hearts of our guests. She kept everyone engaged, present, and emotionally connected throughout the ceremony. Her support during the entire planning process was unmatched, and she played a huge role in making the experience far less stressful.

By the end of it all, Mary wasn’t just our officiant — she became family. We have zero regrets and endless gratitude for the love, intention, and joy she brought to our day.

Mary Stone was amazing! She helped us in every way possible to tailor our ceremony to be perfect and the way we wanted it. We filled out her questionnaire and she helped write up our ceremony and we got to all work on editing it together. While the ceremony is supposed to be a serious moment, we had plenty of laughs during the ceremony which helped with the wedding jitters. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a spunky, yet loving officiant. I am so glad she got to officiate our wedding and make our ceremony something to remember. 

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Rev Mary Stone! From the moment we began working with her, her warmth, professionalism, and calm presence made us feel comfortable and cared for. She took the time to get to know us and approached every conversation and communication with patience and empathy. It was clear that she truly loves what she does and treats every ceremony as something deeply personal and meaningful. She listened to our story and helped us craft a ceremony that felt authentic to who we are.  

On our wedding day, Mary brought such a calm, confident energy that set the perfect tone for the ceremony and immediately put everyone at ease. Her delivery was heartfelt, eloquent, and perfectly balanced. She spoke with sincerity and grace, creating moments that felt both intimate and inclusive. We received so many compliments from our guests about how personal and moving our ceremony was, and that’s all thanks to her ability to connect with her audience and genuinely deliver our story. 

However, what truly sets Mary apart is how much of an ally and advocate she is throughout the entire ceremony planning process. She feels like a trusted friend who is on your team from day one—supporting you, celebrating you, and guiding you through each step with kindness and care. She was an incredible resource when it came to logistics, guiding us with patience and candor and making sure we always felt informed and confident. Her support went far beyond officiating; she truly invested in making sure our day reflected who we are. We could not have asked for a more genuine, supportive, or compassionate person to be part of such an important moment in our lives - we highly, highly recommend her to all!

Reverend Mary was exactly what we needed. She took the time to get to know us and crafted a personalized ceremony that our guests raved about afterward. Her enthusiasm and confidence is infectious, and kept both of us in the right frame of mind despite our wedding-day-jitters. We definitely recommend her.

Reverend Mary was an tremendous officiant for my wife and I's wedding in Northern Virginia in October. Throughout the process, she was professional, communicative, and created a script that made our ceremony feel personal. We received many compliments from our guests on the quality and cadence of the ceremony, and that was it among the best they had been to. We would very much recommend Mary Stone to anyone having a Virginia or D.C. wedding.

We could not have asked for a better officiant than Mary! She was truly incredible! The moment we met her, we knew she would be the perfect person to marry us! She is kind, calming, funny, charismatic, and an all-around bright light. She walked us through everything and was extremely helpful. Our ceremony was made specifically for us and was expertly delivered. I can't recommend Mary highly enough!

Like many couples in 2020, we found ourselves pivoting and planning an intimate ceremony after postponing our big wedding, and scrambling to make accommodations. From the moment we spoke with Rev. Mary, we knew she was the perfect fit for us. She has an amazing sense of humor, and immediately put us at ease. I knew after speaking with her, that we were going to be so lucky to have the opportunity to have such an intimate ceremony - even if it wasn't what we originally planned. She helped us to create a ceremony that was so personal and captured who we are as a couple so well. Our families are still talking about what a special ceremony it was, and we are so grateful our paths crossed with Rev. Mary. She was the most important decision we made for our wedding day and we will carry her words with us forever!

Reverend Mary made us super comfortable from the start which was huge for us. We had worried that finding an officiant would be difficult for us but we were immediately put at ease with her and it was an easy decision. Her sense of humor was great and our ceremony was both fun and very much personalized to us. Reverend Mary was super easy to work with and we'd recommend her to everyone!
