Steph with Peak Ceremonies was absolutely amazing! She officiated the most magical ceremony, surrounded by our closest family and friends.
From the very beginning, Steph took the time to truly get to know us, which made our ceremony feel incredibly personal, meaningful, and unique.
Her questionnaire was not only fun to fill out, but also incredibly helpful in planning all the finer details of the ceremony. It made the entire process so much less stressful and ensured that every part of the ceremony reflected us as a couple.
Our family and friends told us it was one of the best wedding ceremonies they had ever attended, and we couldn't agree more. We highly recommend Steph and Peak Ceremonies to any couple looking for a warm, personalized, and unforgettable wedding ceremony. We're so grateful she was such an important part of our special day!

Steph Smith with Peak Ceremonies officiated our son's and his new wife's wedding. The ceremony was one of the most beautiful I've witnessed, and I've heard the same from so many of our guests. Steph did an incredible job capturing their love and preferences in the service. Their vows, ring warming, and tree planting were forever memorable. Thank you for guiding them through this process, and for helping to make their wedding such a beautiful experience for all that witnessed it.

Steph was very friendly, professional, and wonderful to work with! We were looking for a simple legal ceremony and Steph walked us through every step of the process. Since we had m...
oved here from out of state, she made it very convenient by providing the two required witnesses and even performed the ceremony in our home. She was very easy to plan and communicate with, and her prices were a great value for the service provided.

We truly could not have asked for a better officiant for our wedding day. From the very beginning, Steph was incredibly organized, timely, supportive, and genuinely invested in mak...
ing our ceremony feel personal and authentic to us as a couple.
One of the things we appreciated most was how she helped us create a ceremony script that felt completely natural and meaningful — nothing forced or generic. She made the entire process feel easy and stress-free, and on the wedding day itself, everything flowed perfectly thanks to her preparation and guidance.
What meant even more to us was how accommodating and dedicated she was throughout the entire experience. She spent part of her Mother’s Day helping celebrate our wedding, which was something we truly appreciated and will not forget. That level of care and commitment says so much about the kind of person she is.
We received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful and personal the ceremony was. We are so grateful for her kindness, professionalism, and care throughout the entire experience. We would recommend Steph to absolutely anyone looking for an officiant who truly goes above and beyond!

Steph was absolutely fabulous. The effort she put in to meeting with us prior to our agreement to use her as our officiant was perfect.
Throughout the process, we felt understood,...
considered, and supported. She worked with us to craft the perfect day even for a small elopement (4 people) in our small home. Her attention to detail regarding everything from our story to the pronunciation of names was excellent. We felt like she truly found great joy in learning our personal story and customizing our ceremony to that story.
Since our wedding day, we have been telling everyone about her and hope that she continues to have amazing success making others feel as special as we felt.

We worked with Steph at Peak Ceremonies to plan a surprise elopement at our wedding rehearsal. What could have been a simple commitment exchange was made into something beautiful, ...
memorable, and thoughtful. Steph's attention to detail, from quick communication, to the questionnaire we filled out to help her write her ceremony was just incredible. Her kindness in a stressful time was so wonderful and I would highly recommend her to anyone who asked.

ime, you don’t even know them. With Stephanie, she immediately feels like family. She took care to learn about our story and shared hers. She made the process of building our ceremony seamless and fun. We enjoyed working with her. We had so many compliments on our ceremony. My only regret is that we can only get married once because we genuinely loved working with her.
If you want someone who is going to care about what you care about, support your story and you declaring your love in front of your family and friends in a way that feels authentic to you and your partner- Stephanie is the only choice! We cannot say enough good things about her.
