    Amazing!!!

    We could not have asked for a better wedding experience. Stella is kind, friendly, professional and a wonderful person. I would recommend her to anyone interested in a personal and beautiful ceremony in the area.

    Highly recommended

    It was a pleasure to work with Stella from the beginning! She was very responsive and helped me find cost effective vendors since I was coming in from out of state. You could also tell that Stella is passionate about being an officiant and really loves this job which rubs off on everyone else! I highly recommend Stella!!

    Nothing short of awesome

    My husband and I recently got married in Zion National Park in Utah, without ever visiting the state let alone park. I found Stella through the site and she was nothing short of awesome. Any question, day, night, weekday, or weekend she quickly answered and helped through every step of the way. Literally any question. She shows up early, makes you laugh, is up for a walk to the destination, and has it all taken care of. I would recommend her 10/10 to anyone looking to get married in the area.

    Beautiful wedding ceremony by Stella

    Stella was exactly what we wanted in a wedding officiant and more. She brought the most beautiful, loving, feelings to our special day and exuded such happiness for us.
    I’m so glad we found her. She’s one in a million and she truly cares.
    She was so flexible and helpful. We love Stella.

    Stella was a great minister to work with

    Stella assisted us with our wedding and has a lot of contacts for that area. She was a joy to work with. Thank You

    Amazing Minister!

    Stella was wonderful! I love her warm, openness, and flexibility. She made sure to ask important questions about me and my husband. After, she sent me a very thoughtful draft of the ceremony script so I could edit it to be exactly how I wanted. I did not have to change much but I really appreciated her completely flexibility to allow us to make the ceremony our own. (For example, we honored our mothers with roses and had a moment of silence for my Husband's late father.). Stella is also super responsive. Whenever I contacted her, she would respond within a few hours. I also had some confusion with my wedding license after and she called the city to make sure it was handled. She is so on top of everything! We are so happy we had such a wonderful and sweet officiant who really honored who we are as a couple and the things we believe in. Thank you, Stella!

    Bride and Groom

    From the beginning, Stella was very accommodating and professional. She went out of her way to make sure everything worked. She was extremely positive, and got information back to us immediately. A week before the wedding, we had an issue with the vendor, and she immediately took care of all the details and found us a new location for the wedding. She went above and beyond several times to make sure our day went smoothly and made it a stress-free experience. We would definitely recommend her!!!! She's amazing!!!!!

    Stella made our zion national park elopement special and perfect. She hiked to the canyon overlook and was waiting for us when we got there. She was quick to respond to emails and sent us the script ahead of time to review.

    Stella was absolutely wonderful. If there were 10 stars, we would give it to her! We were coming to Utah from Oregon and planned our small wedding in about 6 weeks. Stella helped us tremendously and guided us how to go about finding anything we wanted for our wedding. She was super responsive even at 11pm when I had small pre-wedding crisis and though nothing was coming together ;-) She was able to calm me down and make things seem so easy. Also, I need to add, Stella was very flexible as we have changed our wedding hour about 3 times ;-) We could have not asked for a better person to come into our lives on such an important day for us. If we could get married over and over again to each other, we would chose Stella to marry us every time :-)

    We where really late trying to find a person to do the wedding so contacted several people via email pretty late at night, not expecting a reply from most of them since the day we where looking for was a Sunday on a holiday weekend. We got a reply back within the hour from her as well as a few replies from about 3 or 4 others that next day. Contacted each of them to see who we liked best of the people who replied and from the conversations that we had with each person it was clear that she was very enthusiastic and enjoyed her job so we went with her. She kept in contact and worked quickly to give us examples of what could be said and worked with us to find out what we would like. Going through the examples we communicated with her, ok for the base we like this best, for the first quote in it we like what is there but for the second quote we don't like that that much, but we do like the quote from the other example, can you give us some examples of similar things to that which would also fit with the quote we already like? Within that next day or so she found one that we really liked that fit in well. While we could have changed any wording we liked we felt it best to allow the professional to come up with ideas and bounce them off us rather then change the wording our selves and we are glad we did, everything came out really nice and sounded very professional at the same time. All in all with how much time and effort and caring was put into everything it was well worth every penny. The only issue we had with our entire wedding was simply that it was windy that day and the arch blew over a few minutes before the ceremony so we where in a rush to get it put back together and standing again, but that was not her fault, we didn't opt for paying to control the weather, that was a bit out of our price range, kidding aside it well managed, very professional, she kept communication and did so quickly any time we had questions or wanted to change something we were pleased

    Stella was fantastic and was able to be part of a unique wedding on a houseboat in Bullfrog Marina, Lake Powell UT. She and the referred catering company travelled from St George to Bullfrog for the ceremony. Stella is willing to go the extra mile to make a special day under unique settings.

    Stella was exactly what we were looking for. We eloped at Zion national park and wanted something simple but beautiful and she was a big part in fulfilling that. Thank you Stella for a very special day in our loves!

    Stella was so helpful with the planning of everything. We came from the UK for a USA wedding and she assisted with the licence information, the B&B requirements and any other little bits we needed. Our day would not have gone half as smooth as it not been for her !
    Stella was a blessing to us and we are so pleased and honored to have her be a part of our day

    Stella is a remarkable and kind woman. From the first time you meet her you can tell she truly cares about you and enjoys what she does. She is quick to respond and will go above and beyond to meet your expectations. I am so grateful I have been able to get to know her and have her be a part of my wedding. Thank You so much for everything Stella.

    Stella is absolutely amazing!! She made our ceremony so special. She has such a beautiful spirit.
    Just an example of how awesome Stella is -- On the day of our wedding we completely forgot to touch base with Stella and let her know exactly when and where on the trail in Zion to meet us. We were trying to make it out to the end of Canyon Overlook trail with our photographers before the sunset so we had to head out before Stella had arrived and we had no service on the trail to try and call her and let her know that she should meet us at the end of the trail. We decided to head out on the trail and cross our fingers that Stella would hopefully meet us. She did!!!! She hiked all the way up Canyon Overlook trail (about a mile) without even knowing for sure if we would be there at the end!!! It was so amazing. Unfortunately, I don't know a lot of people that would do that these days. She's truly special and one of a kind. We loved her and feel so blessed to have had her officiate our ceremony! We will never forget how magical our day was!
