Rev Schulte was amazing! He was so calm, collected, professional, and sweet. He offered a variety of options for our wedding and he truly made us feel special. I cannot recommend him enough!
Reverend Schulte is a pro. No doubt about it. He is an incredibly organized officiant with many options for you to build the ceremony that is most meaningful to you and your partner.
While he will do a good job regardless, I would highly recommend having him at your rehearsal. He provided so many useful tips that we never would've thought of. On top of that, he was super respectful of other vendors giving us tips to help out the photographer, videographer or planner.
Rev Schulte was SO WONDERFUL! Being from out of town, we didn’t officially meet until the day of the ceremony, yet with the communication we had beforehand and how much he asked to learn about us, the ceremony sounded like he knew us forever. The ceremony was completely personal for us, he was on time, pleasant, provided a calm presence for a very nervous bride, and was just overall great!
Rev Schulte married my husband and I 10 years ago. He did such a fantastic job with our service that we asked him to perform our Vow Renewal in September 2023. He is simply the best person to perform your service. He's sweet, kind, genuine, considerate, polite and makes you feel like you are the only couple that matters at that moment. I cannot say enough positive words about him. He made both of our days memorable. We were very lucky to have him as our officiant. You will feel the same. Contact him and see what I mean. He's great!!
Rev. Schulte was amazing! We are so glad that we had him officiate our wedding!
We asked for a less traditional, very short ceremony and Reverend Schulte absolutely nailed it. I couldn't have been happier with how he customized our vows and his overall positive presence at our wedding!!
12 years later and we're still Facebook friends! Reverend Schulte was hands down the best part of our wedding, we were honored he was available to us. 5 Stars!!!
Reverend Schulte was the perfect choice for our wedding! He’s extremely responsive, kind, and easy to talk to. He made us feel so at ease and prepared for our big day. We’re so thankful for all of his help!
Steve was a blast! He has a great sense of humor which eased our stress. Very quick to respond and answer all my questions. We highly recommend him!
We hired Rev. Schulte on the recommendation of our planner, and we're so glad we did! At the start of our rehearsal, we were both so nervous about getting everything right during the ceremony. I'm guessing he could sense our anxiety, as the rehearsal was replete with his assurances that he'd make sure we didn't forget anything, along expert tips on how to stand and what to do with our hands. Thanks to his guidance and easygoing demeanor, we were confident that we'd do just fine on the big day. During the ceremony, he kept his promises about running the show, and really allowed us to focus on each other. It was such a special moment, and we can't thank him enough!
Reverend Schulte is super nice, personable, and professional. He definitely knows what he is doing as he guided us and kept us calm during the wedding rehearsal. He allows you to customize the ceremony script according to your preferences. I had a particular request for the ceremony and he delivered! I wanted to have a bilingual ceremony (Spanish and English) which was possible thanks to him and Andy, the Spanish-speaking officiant. Thank you so much for an unforgettable ceremony!
Rev. Steven Schulte was amazing. he was easy to work with , and very polite. he made the ceremony great.
Reverend Schulte is nothing short of amazing! He was a delight to work with in setting up our ceremony and he ensured that our day was special and uniquely us. We loved getting to talk with him and he offered amazing advice to help us plan our ceremony. On our wedding day Reverend Schulte was extrodinary. The ceremony was beautiful and we appreciate everything he did for us to make it so. There is no better person to marry you than Reverend Schulte, he is the best of the best!
Rev. Steven Schulte actually backed out the Friday before our wedding due to illenss. However before even letting us know he already had someone set up and ready to go for us. It was very much appreciated that he set that up for us and we didn't need to worry about anything.
Rev. Schulte was the perfect man for the job. He was very flexible throughout the COVID rescheduling nightmares, and offered some input for how the ceremony should play out- much appreciated! Very friendly, helpful, and was never late! Very responsive to emails (we planned this as a destination wedding). He has several "scripts" to choose from, and we were even able to edit them for a vow renewal. Highest recommendations for Rev. Schulte!
First, I would like to express a big THANK YOU for providing such professional and amazing service, our wedding day went perfectly! Rev. Steve Shulte is one of my favorite people ever, such good energy always! He was very patient with our unfortunate circumstances of rescheduling, gave excellent advice on possible locations, and, of course, his performance of the ceremony was everything a bride could ask for. I’m so glad that we decided to record it on video! Rev. Steve is the best officiant in Savannah, hands down 😊
Rev. Schulte was great! He was obviously very experienced and helped us think through all the tiny details of our wedding ceremony that I otherwise would have overlooked. He also kept us laughing and was very personable. Highly recommend!
Reverend Schulte was the perfect person to officiate our wedding. I loved meeting with him in person to discuss how to combine two traditions to make our ceremony the perfect blend for us. He is also super fun...loved getting to know him though this process!
Reverend Schulte was absolutely amazing! We had a destination wedding in Savannah, and he proved to be the perfect choice for our ceremony. He is kind, compassionate, and very professional. Leading up to the wedding day, he was receptive to our ideas and responded to emails quickly. He added in our requested personalizations and provided guidance when needed. At our rehearsal, he was clear and gave the most amazing advice that helped our ceremony run so smoothly. We loved having him be part of our most special day yet. Thank you so much! We would recommend to anyone getting married in Savannah!
I was so happy to share our first moments as husband and wife with Reverend Schulte. He made our vow ceremony so special and I will always remember his thoughtfulness and his sense of humor. I would highly recommend his services for anyone wanting a special ceremony on their wedding day.
Rev. Steven Schulte is an amazing officant. As soon as my husband and I met with him we knew we wanted him to marry us. He is kind and amazing to work with. He made sure at the rehearsal we knew what we were to do for our big day and put all our nerves at ease. As he did the ceremony, he continued to walk us through to make sure we knew exactly what to do. The day went beautifully and we couldn't ask for a better person to have married us!
Rev. Schulte married my husband and I this past weekend! He was a pleasure to work with. He was very detailed and had the perfect customized ceremony for us. Rehearsal was very organized and we were prepared on our big day! He made us laugh and made us official! Thank you Rev. Schulte for sharing this day with us.
Rev Schulte was fantastic. He officiated our destination wedding. Easy to work with from a distance. We liked that he has sample ceremonies on his website, so we could customize our ceremony. Highly recommend having him there for the rehearsal. He made sure we all knew what we were doing, so the wedding day went smoothly. Highly recommend!
Such a good choice! Rev. Schulte was very accommodating and timely in his responses. We appreciated the time spent with us at the rehearsal so we knew what to expect. The guests loved him too, especially his attire! Thanks so much!!
Rev. Schulte is the PERFECT officiant for your Savannah wedding! He made our ceremony perfect and working with him was so easy since he is so professional. We wanted a simple and sweet ceremony and he delivered! When one of Savannah's famous ships tooted their horn right before we began our vows he didn't miss a beat! Thank you Rev. Schulte for being such an integral part of our day and blessing our marriage!
Rev. Schulte was a pleasure to work with! I highly recommend him!
Rev. Steven Schulte was amazing from our first introduction all the way until the day of our wedding. He is highly experienced and offered several different tips and great words of advice on how to make not only the ceremony smoother but the entire wedding day. He has a list of amazing ready to choose readings from his website while also being more than accommodating in designing the perfect ceremony for you and your future spouse with you own selected readings. Although he is a very busy vendor, he responds extremely quickly to your questions and is more than willing to bend his schedule to accommodate you. He walked us through our ceremony bit by bit putting us at ease and we were able to enjoy our ceremony with both laughter and love with him as our officiant. He is super amazing and I highly encourage him if you need an officiant who is professional, prepared, charming, and highly trusting and straight forward. Thank you so much Rev. Steven!!
Rev. Shulte performed such an amazingly beautiful ceremony! I don't think there was a dry eye in the crowd. From the beginning you made my groom and me feel so comfortable and relaxed, we knew the ceremony would go off without a hitch! Your thoughtfulness (by letting me borrow your hankie to dry my tears) and kindness (by relaxing my groom before I walked down the aisle) are the details we will treasure forever. Thank you again Rev. Shulte for be a part of our special day!
Rev Steven Schulte did a good job with our short ceremony. I wasn't really impressed with his comments and attitude before the ceremony. Our ceremony was supposed to start at 5:00. At 5:05 we were about to start, people were lined up. My husband and I were just finishing pictures and he comes up to us and says" I'm the only vendor not paid by the hour" and says we need to start. It was a rude comment and not the time for rude comments. We were clearly about to start. Not impressed.
Rev. Schulte is great! If you're worried about anything at all, you're in good hands. He's very nice and makes sure that everything goes according to plan. His attention to detail is spot on. Book with Rev. Schulte, you won't regret it!
Rev. Schulte did an amazing job.
Stephen and I got married on Nov 5th 2016 at the Mighty Eighth Air Force Museum. We are so glad we chose the Rev. Schulte to marry us. He was absolutely wonderful! He was so professional and fun. Very organized. He put us, or me rather, at such ease during the rehearsal. He walked us through every step. Literally. He thought of things that even we hadn't. But of course, with his experience, it makes sense. We would highly recommend him for anyone getting married. It was great being able to tailor our ceremony to fit our needs. Obviously, do your research. But I'm sure you'll not find a better officiant.
My husband and I were married on May 7, 2016 in beautiful Savannah, Georgia. We live in Daytona Beach, Florida so planning an out of town wedding was a little nerve racking. Luckily, we couldn't of been happier with the results.
Steve was amazing, we first viewed the video on his web site and knew he was perfect to marry us. We communicated remotely and never met till our rehearsal. He really made us feel calm about how we would hold hands, stand, pass flowers, etc. He was always on time, always responded quickly, and completely flexible with us since we really customized our vowels to our liking. Thank you Steve!
My husband and I just recently got married in Savannah, GA. Having only been to one other wedding myself and living over 10 hours away...we thought finding an officiant was going to be extremely challenging. After looking on Wedding Wire, The Knot, and speaking to our photographer & florist, we came across Reverend Schulte. He already had outstanding reviews and every person we asked recommend him. His facebook and website were easy to navigate and his prices were right on point. After reaching out to him via email and then meeting in person-we knew he was the perfect officiant for us! He was so down to earth, kind, and extremely knowledgeable. He was able to answer all of our last minute questions and did such a wonderful job at the rehearsal and ceremony.
When the big day finally arrived, my biggest fear was that I wouldn't get through reading my own vows. Reverend Schulte gave me some calming advice and with his help, I was able to get through it. He was an outstanding officiant and I am SO glad that we chose him to be such a big part of our wedding day. It was truly a blessing to have been able to work with him!! Thank you Reverend Schulte!!

Rev. Schulte came highly recommended to us from our wedding planner and he did not disappoint. Even though we only met him briefly the night before our wedding, he performed an excellent service for us and made it feel extremely heartfelt. He was prompt at responding to our emails and was flexible with our various rain plans!! We would recommend him to anyone looking to get married in Savannah.
We met the reverend the day before the wedding at the inn, where he was finishing up with another young couple on their special day. A very popular reverend indeed. We spoke a little and he asked relevant questions about how we met, what service we wanted and just got to know us. Little better. My wife and I felt very comfortable with him after our initial meeting. The next day he arrived early and was very professional throat the service. We loved his seer suckered suit and thought it played well with our simple wedding.
Rev. Darrin Dodd, an associate of Rev. Schulte's, officiated our ceremony. The whole process was quick and easy, from picking out our ceremony style, to the actual vows. They were very easy to work with, and I highly recommend!
I really enjoyed the opportunity to work with Rev. Schulte for our ceremony. Since this was a destination wedding for us, we had not had the opportunity to meet him in person prior to our rehearsal. But his personality and way of handling things made us immediately comfortable and assured us that we had made the right choice.
Rev Shulte was fun and wonderful! He put everyone at ease and helped make our ceremony smooth and memorable!
Nice as can be and funny!!
Will make your ceremony just right for you!!

Words cannot describe how awesome Rev. Schulte was at our wedding. He came to the square an hour and a half before the ceremony and used his weed whacker to cut the grass and weeds since the city hadn't done it. He definitely went above and beyond, and we are forever grateful!
We met Rev Steven a month before the wedding - hilarious gentleman. He was extremely flexible as we were from Atlanta with meetings and times. The bride and groom stopped by on their drive to Hilton Head to have their documents signed at his church. He arrived very early the day of the wedding and made it happen even though the groom provided him the ceremony choice 1 hour before. During the ceremony, the bride and groom tell him they want to do their own vowels. He did not miss a beat. Afterwards, he stuck around for pictures and chat with the family. It was fantastic!
Rev. Shulte was wonderful. We did not even get to officially meet him until after the ceremony (destination wedding). He gave a beautiful ceremony and was super easy to work with. What a great guy!
Very nice and willing to do a ceremony that you want
We're so glad that we chose Rev Steve to be the officiant at our wedding. He was professional and flexible. He took all of our suggestions and included them in our ceremony to make it truly our own.
The first time I met Rev. Schulte was not how we had planned. My wedding was a destination wedding in Savannah and I packed in as many appointments as I could into one weekend.
My mom and I were at an appointment at the Old Pink House and were not going to make it to our appointment with Rev. Schulte on time. When we called him he told us not to worry and he would come to the Old Pink House to make things easier for us!! He is so accommodating.
When we met Rev. Schulte explained that it is not his wedding, it is our wedding (the couple's wedding). He explained that he has many choices of ceremonies you can use if you'd like, or you can completely write your own. His philosophy was exactly what we were looking for and he delivered what he promised.
We communicated through email and he was extremely prompt with any questions I had. I think this is very important when working with someone on your wedding.
We wrote our own ceremony and he delivered it so beautifully. It was more than we could have ever hoped for. He performed the ceremony flawlessly! Even though we didn't know Rev. Schulte that well due to our wedding being a destination wedding, he made our ceremony very personal and intimate.
No matter what kind of wedding ceremony you are looking for Rev. Schulte is the guy for you! We were so blessed to have him perform our ceremony.
Rev. Schulte was perfect! He is so funny and made us feel very comfortable. I can't imagine having anyone else perform our wedding ceremony.
Rev Steven Schulte was wonderful - we felt so at ease with him instantly. He made us laugh, and is very kind. He let us determine what we wanted out of our ceremony and delivered a beautiful ceremony.
Rev. Schulte was amazing for our wedding in April. He was easy to work with and has a great website for picking out your vows and readings, he is also completely open to using your own. He was dignified and professional and looked great in the pictures to boot! I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone.
Rev. Schulte was absolutely wonderful. Having planned everything (with a lot of research) online, we first met Rev. Schulte in person at our rehearsal. He put us at ease right away, and performed a beautiful ceremony.
He was also great to work with in planning what specifics we wanted for the ceremony. He guided us with the questions we had, and really used what we decided on with him -- I've been in some weddings where the minister did a lot of his own thing, leaving the bride and groom wondering where all the additional things came from. That was not the case with Rev. Schulte. He was very respectful of what we wanted for our ceremony, while still injecting welcome personality into it.
We highly recommend Rev. Schulte.
