    My husband and I were planning our St. Augustine Wedding from Ohio and were extremely nervous about choosing our vendors over the internet. I had come across Peggy's webpage several times and finally decided to give her a call. WONDERFUL DECISION. From our initial conversation, Peggy was so personable and really wanted to get to know us and our hopes for the wedding. She walked through our ceremony with us to make sure that everything we wanted was included and nothing was included that the two of us didn't love. When the day of the ceremony arrived, Peggy was a very calming presence for the two of us. She performed the most beautiful wedding ceremony and exceeded all of our hopes and dreams. While she had only known us for a few months, it felt like she was a lifelong friend sharing the day with us. She really made our day special. Thank you again Peggy, and for anyone considering a wedding in St. Augustine, choose her. You will not regret it.

    Perfect to a tee!

    I cannot say enough good things about Peggy. From the first moment I spoke with her, I knew I had found our person. My now husband and I eloped to the World Golf Village, and didn’t have much of a plan. Peggy helped us craft the perfect ceremony. She was very professional, timely, and flexible. She allowed us to wait until the day before to finalize our plans. We were married in a gazebo on the property with a fountain and the golf course as our view. Everything flowed perfectly. Peggy even stayed for a few minutes and took some pictures for us and with us. The best thing about Peggy, though is her kindness and ease of manner. She made us both feel so comfortable, like we were there with an good friend. She absolutely was the BEST officiant we could have ever hoped for. ❤️

    Thank you Noel. I appreciate your kind words. I'm so pleased that I exceeded your expectations of an Officiant. Congratulations!

    We are so happy we chose Peggy!!

    We were supposed to have a family friend officiate our wedding, but due to an unexpected surgery we had to scramble and find an officiate ~ 1 month before our wedding. I quickly reached out to a few and was anxiously waiting for responses. Peggy called back within a couple hours of our request, and from the second we started talking, I knew she was the perfect fit!! She asked sincere questions about our relationship and what our vision was for our big day. We worked together to build our ceremony script and she was so easy to work with. Peggy was extremely professional and our rehearsal went amazing so I knew the wedding would be perfect. We highly recommend Peggy if you are looking for an amazing officiant for your wedding!!

    Peggy is amazing!

    Peggy was wonderful! She likes to meet with her couples and get to know them a bit so she can tailor the ceremony to the likeness of the couple. She sent us a script and let us add or remove anything we wanted. We really didnt have to change much at all since peggy provided a beautiful ceremony. I'm so glad we went with peggy, she made our ceremony just perfect for us. Thank you!

    Peggy is the Perfect Officiant for a Wedding!

    My husband and I have very different spiritual beliefs and we wanted to incorporate both our backgrounds in our ceremony. Peggy did a great job of finding our middle ground and creating a ceremony that perfectly represented our vision and backgrounds. Her pricing is very reasonable and she was super responsive through the entire process. She offered suggestions when we needed them most and made our ceremony tasteful and classy. We would highly recommend Peggy if you're looking for a great officiant for your wedding.

    It Just Felt Right - Say "Yes" to Peggy!

    When I first got on the phone with Peggy for consultation, within 30 seconds, we just hit it off! I felt so open and comfortable with her immediately while making small talk - almost like I've known her over a decade - I knew she was the right person to wed Jaryd and I! Peggy was always responsive and open to alterations in the ceremony outline the provided once crafted. She was great at both the rehearsal and the ceremony! (Photos: Brian Miller Weddings)

    Unique/perfect wedding ceremony

    Peggy helped us write ceremony vows that were perfect for us. We have a blended family, and we wanted to incorporate our children into the ceremony. She got to know us and what we would like to include to make our wedding perfect. Thank you, Peggy!

    Thank you Susana for taking the time to write such a nice review. I enjoyed being part of your ceremony.

    Perfect Ceremony

    Peggy was a perfect fit for our wedding. She met with us before hand to get to know us, then sent us draft for the ceremony so we could change any wording. The wedding ceremony was performed perfectly and I would highly recommend her for your wedding!

    Peggy was very professional and just what my husband and I were looking for. She will go above and beyond for you and accommodate anything you need. She helped make our special day perfect and allowed us to edit her write up of our ceremony any way we wanted. Would highly reccomend!

    Custom ceremony by a professional - book her!

    Peggy was the perfect officiant! From the moment we met her, we felt such a warm & sincere presence. She drafted the entire ceremony based on what we wanted, & let us have the final edit. It was a relief to have a professional who already knew the questions to ask, which took the pressure off of us to think of it all. Book her, you won’t regret it!

    Thank you for a beautiful ceremony Peggy!

    Peggy did an amazing job writing a beautiful ceremony script for us, customizing it to our preferences and going over it with us to make sure we felt confident and prepared. Communicating with her was very easy, she accommodated all of our requests and was a very important part of making our wedding ceremony unforgettable. We so appreciate Peggy!

    Peggy is world class. Best officiant. 100% satisfied.

    Peggy married my wife, Megan and I on January 18, 2019 at the White Room, St. Augustine. Her services from start to finish exceeded all of our expectations... (which speaks volumes given how high my wife’s expectations were for this event).

    Peggy made herself available at any time to speak with us and answer any questions. She met us in person for brunch to get to know Megan and I, and took a genuine interest in us as individuals and a couple. Her attention to detail was reflected in the beautiful, custom ceremony. Every name was pronounced correctly. Additionally she was able to settle our nerves and professionally keep us centered and on track during the ceremony so photos came out perfect.

    My wife and I give our highest recommendation for Peggy’s services. From the bottom of our hearts, there is nothing we would have changed.

    Wonderful and Kind Officiant

    Peggy was so great to work with. She met us in person to go over what we were looking for in a ceremony and created a draft that was exactly what we wanted. Peggy was very professional and kept in touch from when we booked her all the way until our wedding day.

    In every way, Peggy is the ideal wedding officiant!

    I cannot recommend Peggy highly enough. After speaking with her on the phone for 15 minutes, it felt like we were old friends. She is extremely kind, funny, and personable. She will do everything in her power to make your ceremony exactly what you want, and you can be totally honest with her about your needs. We didn't want to work too hard on customizing our ceremony, so she provided the framework and we were able to add little touches to personalize it. During the rehearsal and ceremony, she was the calming presence that we needed. I guarantee you won't find anyone better, and all our guests agreed!

    Peggy Laroche was our officiant for our August 11, 2018 wedding at Saint Augustine Beach. We found Peggy online and she worked with us via phone because we are from Pittsburgh. We thought the service was perfect and Peggy‘s voice and words touched everyone. Peggy‘s easy-going personality made planning our wedding very simple and we felt very comfortable with Peggy. We would definitely recommend Peggy LaRoche to be your wedding officiant .

    Peggy was recommended on our venue's recommended vendor list. When I first got in contact with her, I instantly felt her warmth and friendliness. We talked for a while about our wedding day and what we wanted from her as our potential officiant. She detailed to us about her service and the flexibility she provided for all kinds of wedding ceremonies. I felt a connection, I hadn't had with most other officiants, especially when she mentioned her work with animals on the side (which I know isn't related to weddings, but just showed how caring she was). Also, her extensive background working with my venue helped me feel more at ease that I was getting someone who knew what to do and to expect the day of. I knew from that moment I wanted her to be our officiant. She worked timely around my husband and I's crazy weekly schedules to conference with us about the draft she created and was always so polite and wonderful to speak with. Finally when we met the day of the rehearsal, I still got the exact presence. The whole time she was very helpful and guiding in what would be done and said throughout the ceremony. She also offered to mail out our marriage license for us, which I thought was just an extra thoughtful touch, since most brides and grooms have a lot going on! On the day of the wedding, everything went so smoothly during the ceremony and it truly was perfect. My husband and I couldn't have been more thrilled to have chosen her as our officiant!

    Words cannot begin to describe how absolutely wonderful Peggy was as our officiant. I knew from the first time we spoke on the phone that she was exactly what we were looking for in someone to lead our ceremony. In our first conversation, Peggy expressed being a dog lover and told me she was currently fostering 2 senior dogs who had recently been displaced from their home. Her caring nature and genuine approach are a true reflection of who she is. Many months before our wedding, my husband and I met Peggy so that she could ask us questions and get a feel for us as a couple. We were extremely comfortable meeting her, as her demeanor is relaxing and inviting. I was happy to learn she is a hugger, as am I, and she is very dedicated to understanding exactly what a couple’s wishes are for their ceremony. I must say Peggy is a highly intuitive woman, because after this one interaction, she developed the most beautiful ceremony blessing for us. When I first read it I was instantly moved to tears. It was as though she had known us for years. If you are looking for an officiant who is proficient, down to earth, and kind, you’ve found the right person. Thank you Peggy for being the peaceful presence we needed on our big day. We will forever cherish your words and sentiment that bonded us together ~ ~ ~
