About
As a wedding officiant, it is my honor to create a ceremony that is as special as the couple venturing into the amazing journey of matrimony. I believe in unique and personalized celebrations that truly reveal the essence of the love shared between the bride and groom.
I take great care in applying the attention needed in capturing the details of the bride and groom’s personalities, as well as the history of their relationship. I will meet with the bride and groom to discuss their wishes, so I can deliver a message that encapsulates the sentiment of their love to their family and friends.

Stefanie was wonderful! Alot of things went wrong on our wedding - it rained, my veil came off mid walk, we had to find a different baker right before the wedding. But Stefanie was always reliable and professional! Her speech was perfect, I loved the questionaires she gave us to fill out - helped us both with our vows. She even gave us pressed flowers after the ceremony her and her mom had made after church! Thanks again Stefanie 😄

We cannot recommend Stefanie enough as our weddingofficiant! She brought such a personal and heartfelt touch to our ceremony, making it truly unforgettable. Stefanie used the questionnaires we filled out to craft a beautiful and personalized message, sharing meaningful insights about us as a couple that had everyone smiling, laughing, and even tearing up. It felt like she genuinely knew us, which made the experience so much more special. Her warmth, professionalism, and ability to create such an intimate and unique atmosphere made our day absolutely perfect. If you’re looking for an officiant who will make your wedding truly memorable, Stefanie is the one!
