My husband & I looked through numerous officiants trying to find someone that fit us as a couple. We both felt that we needed someone who could incorporate a meaningful ceremony into our wedding and we definitely found that in Minister Steve! Prior to the wedding, we met with Steve to discuss details, kept in touch throughout the process and caught up again at our rehearsal for the wedding. All communication was courteous, he was very punctual and always one step ahead. During our wedding, we wanted to perform handfasting and wanted minimal religious notations which Steve fulfilled greatly. The ceremony and service were worded and delivered beautifully and he gave us a script to check over beforehand too to check if we wanted to make any changes. All in all, our wedding wouldn't have been the same without him and we couldn't have picked anyone better. Highly recommend this wonderful man!

Great Wedding
Steve went the extra mile and did the ceremony in English and Spanish, (for my wife)! That made my bride very comfortable.

Minister Steve was great!!
Minister Steve was great! After covid changed our original ceremony plans we found Minister Steve last minute and he was great with catering to what we wanted in our ceremony and had a lot of options to help us decide what we wanted to include. He made sure the rehearsal went smoothly and made the ceremony special and fun!

Perfect 🙏🏻
Minister Paul was one of the best things to happen to us. He has such a warm heart and kind spirit. He was soooo easy to talk to and calmed me a lot during my planning. My parents were not able to attend because of my moms health and he was so helpful and listened as I cried. The ceremony he put together was absolutely perfect for us, and it was written as if he had known us forever. We were so blessed to have had Minister Paul there. I wish we could do it all over again. ❤️

Stress-free Wedding
Minister Steve was absolutely amazing! He made our wedding ceremony run so smoothly. He was extremely responsive to all our questions and was great to work with from the beginning of the process to rehearsal to the big day itself! It was nice having someone know exactly what they were doing and truly understand us/our vision after just a few short phone calls. It was truly a pleasure working with Minister Steve for our wedding!

We owe many thanks to both Minister Steve and Minister Paul! After postponing our wedding twice due to covid, Minister Paul became our officiant and did an outstanding job! He was very timely, organized, professional, and made us both feel at ease. He provided guidance for our ceremony, but was flexible and willing to do what we felt fit our personalities and wedding the best. Thank you so very much for everything!

Minister Steve was the best choice for our ceremony. Not only was he flexible with our schedules, he was open to all our ideas and worked with us on incorporating a tree planting, our kids and our dog in the ceremony!
He was diligent and timely with the legal paperwork, one less thing we had to manage that day.
Our families are still talking about the wonderful ceremony!

Minister Steve was the best officiant we could have asked for! The ceremony and our vows was my favorite part of my wedding day, and this is largely in part to Minister Steve's thoughtfully planned words! He is so kind and fun to be around, and he also keeps everyone where they are supposed to be! He is such a down to earth person!

The BEST - 100% Would Hire Again!
Minister Steve was absolutely amazing. After reaching out to him, I received a call within hours! He was flexible and was able to change his schedule for us. My husband (thanks to Minister Steve), and I were on a tight time crunch due to our daughter coming soon, husband is leaving the country, work; just life! Minister Steve made it work and we are so grateful to him for his time! I 100% recommend him for any service! Price is perfect, flexible, he is personable, quick to respond to you, all in all such an amazing ceremony! He even cared enough to ask what colors he should wear, he allowed us to pick the time and place, we are beyond grateful for Minister Steve!

Fantastic Experience
Minister Steve did a wonderful job helping us prepare for our wedding. He reviewed our ceremony with us and made as many edits as we needed to make it fit us. The hand fasting ceremony that he created matched us well and the quaich ceremony tied in our Scottish roots. Minister Steve provided many humorous moments throughout the rehearsal and wedding that helped ease our nerves. We felt very comfortable with him and were grateful to have chosen him as our officiant.

Very flexible & great personality!
We were so blessed to have Steve as our minister for our wedding. Our original minister (a family friend) had to unexpectedly back out last minute. Steve responded fast, was willing to help us out in a crunch, and was super flexible by booking us just a few hours after another wedding already booked on our date. I really appreciate his patience when working with us during rehearsal. We loved his friendly personality and great sense of humor, which he added to our wedding! I would highly recommend Steve to anyone looking for a wedding minister. We will forever be grateful for his part in making our dream day come true!

Very good flexible minister
Minister Steve was great from the beginning. He immediately responded when we inquired, answered all questions, and we quickly decided that he was a good fit for our wedding. He checked in several times to see if our preparations we're going well and offered to help write our vows. We were keeping everything simple, so we did not require much assistance but he made sure we knew he was there to help. We chose the "Steve is Here. Let's Get This Over With!" Package and it fit right in with a simple wedding. We didn't have a rehearsal wedding, but Minister Steve was great with his cues to help. He also brought his wife along to the wedding, who was very warming and inviting.

Just what we were looking for.
We asked Minister Steve to officiate our wedding on May 4 and he made the ceremony exactly as we wanted. He was respectful of our requests and details, and worked with us to tailor elements of the ceremony as we wanted. He has a great sense of humor and yet an extreme attention to detail. We would highly recommend him if you are looking for someone to officiate you special day.

The family friend you haven't met yet!
My fiancée (now wife!) put me in charge of hiring an officiant. I found a listing for this gentleman that was highly reviewed, took the time to look the part, and -- bonus -- offered a military discount. After a couple of emails, I was good, Minister Steve was in, and my box was checked.
When the time was getting close, Steve checked in and said it was time to meet to plan out the ceremony. There were maybe six emails and a coffee meeting during this phase, but at that point Steve's very likable nature became apparent. We quickly realized we didn't just want this guy to show up and make things official, we wanted him there to be a part of it. And he very much was.
In terms of what to expect, Minister Steve is an organized officiant. He'll talk to you about what to expect, and from the initial conversations will put together some choices that enable you to make the ceremony exactly what you want, always checking to make sure you don't miss anything you aren't aware of. He's exactly the right mix of firm (when dealing with the cat-herding of dealing with organizing your bridal party) and fun, determining where your sense of humor is and blending right in with it.
If you aren't getting married in a church, you need an officiant, so if you're reading this you're just looking to make sure you get one more thing done on that long list. If your smart and/or fortunate enough to hire him, Minister Steve is a really good guy that you will be very glad you made a part of your day. We certainly are!!

Outstanding
Minister Steve was extremely professional and caring during the whole wedding ceremony process. He was quick to respond to my e-mails, and very helpful with ideas regarding the ceremony. He gave us a draft of our wedding ceremony way in advance which gave us time to review and make any modifications. He even went above and beyond by helping supply music for our wedding. He made our wedding ceremony beautiful and we are blessed to have him be part of our day.
