The ceremony that stole the show (best moment of my life)

Words aren't enough to describe how amazing Stephanie is! When I tell you EVERYONE sobbed during our ceremony, I'm not kidding. So many guests told me after that is was the most romantic, heartfelt, sentimental wedding ceremony they had ever seen. My husband and I talked to soooo many different officiants but Stephanie stood out to us and honestly, it was the best wedding decision we could have made. Prior to the actual ceremony, unforeseen circumstances came up and we decided to get legally married in advance. Stephanie was able to make that happen last minute and took care of all of the paperwork. For our "real" ceremony, Stephanie crafted up the most beautiful speech based on our questionnaire responses. Many of the guests assumed she was a family member or friend because she seemed to know us so well. My husband and I figured that the ceremony wouldn't be super emotional for us since we had already been legally married and did a first-look before the wedding. Oh, how wrong we were! She added in perfectly timed moments of levity and delivered it in such a sincere way, it was magical. The happiest and most emotional moment of my life. After the reception, guests couldn't stop talking about the ceremony. It was incredibly memorable and the highlight of the night. Thank you Stephanie!!!

A Perfectly Personal Ceremony

Finding an officiant was the toughest part of our vendor search! Our vision was a unique secular wedding ceremony: something that was profound, but not too serious. Upbeat and sweet, but not overly saccharine. And we wanted it to feel personal and true to our story as a couple who has been together for 10+ years. It was a tough balance to strike, but when we met with Stephanie at Unfiltered Weddings, we knew she could do it. And she seriously knocked it out of the park!
My husband and I both write professionally, so we went a little over-the-top on our vows. We also finished them at the last minute. Stephanie was able to modify the ceremony at the last minute to accommodate our long vows, and she did it seamlessly.

Our guests are still talking about how much they loved the ceremony. Many of them thought Stephanie was a personal friend of ours based on how well the ceremony captured our personalities and unique quirks as people – they were shocked to find out that we hired her!

Stephanie’s ceremony meant so much to us, especially considering how long we had waited for the big day after multiple pandemic delays. We’re looking into printing parts of the ceremony and framing them around our home, because her words touched our hearts so deeply. We cannot recommend Unfiltered Weddings highly enough for any wedding ceremony.

Amazing Wedding

I can’t recommend Stephanie enough. She wrote the most beautiful ceremony for my husband and I. Neither of us had a whole lot of ideas on what we wanted quotes or poetry-wise, except a mutual love for The Princess Bride. She snuck in two references that had us beaming.

My sister-in-law commented that it was so nice of my friend to perform the wedding. When I told her I only spoke with Stephanie a few times prior to the ceremony she was floored. “She talked about you two like she knew you your whole lives.” The wedding felt so personal and intimate. Stephanie will not disappoint! It was everything we didn’t even know we always wanted. Thanks, Stephanie!
