Reverend Steve was a phenomenal officiant. He made our ceremony feel like it was home. That is how comfortable he made us feel in what can be a nerve-wracking moment. Rev. Steve also gave us options for the ceremony script. We chose to use a more religious script, as we are becoming more spiritual as a couple. The Lord was indeed with us that day and Rev. Steve blessed our wedding gracefully.
I would encourage anyone in need of an officiant to seek out Rev. Steve. He is a wonderful man with a graceful soul.
Thank you again, Rev. Steve for officiating our wedding. We had the most amazing day, and we are glad you were a part of it!!!

My partner and I recently eloped, and we couldn't have asked for a better officiant than Reverend Steve Wayne. From the first interaction to the ceremony, he exceeded all expectations. His warm and calming presence made us feel at ease, and he truly made our special day feel meaningful.

Rev Steve was absolutely awesome! He made everything run smoothly and was able to accommodate a last minute time change. If we could do it all over again he’d be our pick EVERY time.

Reverand Steve called me within minutes of submitting my first online contact form. He was so helpful navigating the process from the beginning and paid attention to detail. He didn’t know us, but it felt like he did during the elopement ceremony. We eloped on our land, and he was down for the ride as he had to get in a different truck with my family to get back to the spot we were going to be married. He also made sure to mail off the marriage docs, so I didn’t have to worry about it. 10/10 recommend!!!

Rev Steve Wayne married my husband and I together and was absolutely wonderful. He made our elopement special and was thoughtful and caring. He was quick to respond and took great care of us. We were absolutely happy to have him there on our special day and will be recommending him to anyone else who needs someone to be there on their special day and marry them. Thank you so so much!!
