A Wedding Ceremony Your Way

As my husband & I decided to have a destination wedding, we chose most of our vendors from our venue’s preferred vendor list. We met with Peggy and instantly felt comfortable with her. She is very professional and has a warm presence about her. She did a wonderful job with our ceremony and made it exactly what we wanted. We highly recommend Peggy to officiate your wedding!

Peggy was the perfect officiant for our wedding! We HIGHLY recommend her and her services. She was flexible, communicative, and cares deeply about what she does and the couples she is marrying. We are both less religious, and she was incredibly helpful in figuring out a ceremony that would be a great mix of romantic tones without being overly religious or faith-based. She is an exceptional person!

I cannot describe how incredible Peggy was as our officiant. She created a beautiful ceremony that was so perfect for us it was like she had known us for years. However, she also did not require us to have numerous meetings with her to get there which I greatly appreciated! The ceremony encompassed everything we wanted while keeping with a mostly romantic feel. We wanted to avoid a very ritualistic and heavily religious ceremony, so we were glad to find someone who could so accommodate our needs! Her ability to tune the ceremony to whatever your preference was wonderful. She was very easy to communicate with and was very professional. We did have one moment of panic when she called 45 minutes before the rehersal to let us know she wanted to sign the license, but she was very flexible and waited while we got ready and ran down. She was very kind and encouraging with everyone during the rehearsal and everything ran smoothly because of it. Whatever style of ceremony you are looking for, Peggy is the one to ask!

Peggy was a pleasure to have as our officiant. We live in New York and our wedding was in Florida, so I did not get to meet Peggy prior to selecting her to be our officiant. However, after the first five minutes of talking to her on the phone, I knew she was perfect. She made me laugh and feel as if we were already friends. I felt at ease, which is exactly how I wanted to feel on my wedding day. She is friendly and professional. She wrote our vows for us and they were exactly what we wanted. Guests from our wedding commented on how beautiful the vows were and wanted a copy of the ceremony. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Peggy was great to work with. We were really happy with her suggestions for our ceremony and she easily included our personal vows as well. She was friendly, professional and kind. I would happily recommend her services to a friend.

Ms. LaRoche, is personal and listens to whatever you want your ceremony to be. She gave us a first meeting with her to discuss what and how we wanted our ceremony to be. She is wonderful and highly recommend her.

Peggy did an amazing job at my wedding. She met with me beforehand to go over everything and had it all ready way before the wedding. During the ceremony, she did a great job administering and directing everything!

Peggy was great to work with! She was very friendly and helped to make our ceremony exactly what we wanted! She is so sweet and we loved having her be a part of our big day! Thanks Peggy!

Words cannot describe Peggy's professionalism, sincerity and genuine love for what she does. She helped to make our day a most memorable one. I would highly recommend Peggy to anyone who wants to have an amazing ceremony.

Peggy officiated our wedding at River House in St. Augustine in December 2010. She was a joy to work with throughout the process of planning the ceremony. She really focused on our wishes as a couple and helped us plan a meaningful ceremony. At the wedding itself she put everyone at ease with her warm, genuine demeanor and gave us exactly the ceremony we had hoped for. We had a wonderful experience with Peggy and I would recommend her to anyone.

I booked Peggy's services through Thumbtack.com, and did everything via phone and email. I felt very comfortable with her and she was a calm in my storm haha. Peggy was professional, organized, patient and very seasoned at what she does. I met her today for the first time at my rehearsal and she was simply amazing. She helped with every single detail and I could not have asked for more. My wedding is tomorrow and I am confident it will be absolutely perfect largely because of Peggy.

My husband and I wanted an intimate, private ceremony with just the closest family present and Peggy delivered a personalized, thoughtful ceremony that was just perfect for us. We had a small time frame in which to have our celebration and she was so accommodating and pleasant to deal with that I recommend her personally and professionally to anyone planning a wedding celebration. She responded so quickly to my request, calling from her vacation in California to make the initial contact, and followed through with professionalism and enthusiasm. She is a great resource, especially if you are uncertain about the flow of your ceremony. Her experience and attentiveness allowed us to have a beautiful wedding.

Peggy was just wonderful! I found her online and contacted her. She was traveling, but responded promptly and answered my questions. When we had the planning call with her to discuss the ceremony details, she listened to what we said and suggested we might like to incorporate a ribbon or hand fasting ceremony with our vows. We loved the idea! She then sent a draft of our vows which we edited and returned to her. She also suggested an area of St. Augustine Beach she thought we might like for our ceremony and it was perfect! The day before our ceremony, she called to touch base and confirm when and where we were meeting and she arrived before us on the date of the ceremony. We loved the ceremony she helped us design and her warm and friendly personality made working with her a complete pleasure. We would highly recommend her!

I worked with Peggy LaRoche on my Wedding Ceremony. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, and unstood the importance of her role on our Big Day. She wrote a beautiful ceremony specific to us, and was extremely professional. Peggy is great at what she does and I am thankful to have found her as my Wedding Officiant.

Peggy was a wonderful officiant. I felt at ease the first time we met with her. She took time to get to know us and to learn what type of ceremony we wanted and then gave us some ideas of how we could make our ceremony work the way we wanted it to. My wife and I are not particularly religious and Peggy was very accommodating and made the ceremony as secular as we wanted it to be. I would highly recommend hiring Peggy to anyone getting married in the St. Augustine area.

We had our wedding at Marineland. It was not a first marriage for either of us, and our only bridal party were the 5 young children of our blended family. Peggy created a ceremony that beautifully incorporated the children and allowed them to really feel involved in the process. She used verses just perfect for our situation, and our religious beliefs. We wrote our own vows and Peggy placed that in the ceremony perfectly. Peggy was sweet, and made all of us feel very comfortable. The ceremony she performed was perfect, and it was not an easy location - right in front of a dolphin pool! Everything about Peggy was fantastic at the wedding. She was easy to work with, very accommodating and a blessing to us that day! I would recommend her to anyone!

Having Peggy LaRoche from A Wedding Ceremony Your Way was a wonderful experience all the way around. My husband and I had specific ideas about what we wanted included in our ceremony, as well as things we wanted to avoid or not include. Peggy was very accommodating and never judgmental. She truly wants to help you make your ceremony just the way you want it, while still offering great ideas that you may not have thought of. She is warm, kind, and knowledgeable, making the process of creating your ceremony simple and fun. We would certainly recommend her to any one looking for an officiant. We recommended her to my cousin for her wedding and they loved her too! Overall, she is great at what she does and you won't be disappointed!

Peggy was personable from the start and did a great job to make sure my fiance and I felt comfortable. She asked us multiple questions in order to get the ceremony just right for us. I felt like she understood exactly what we were looking for and even came up with ideas we did not know about for the ceremony. It was beautifully written and we were able to involve multiple family members. Lots of people came up to us after the ceremony and told us how perfectly 'us' it was. I highly recommend her for your ceremony and she was super easy to work with.
