“From the moment we first spoke with Fabi, we knew she wasn’t just another wedding vendor—she was someone who truly cared about us and our story. She listened with so much heart, asked questions we’d never even thought about, and somehow turned all of that into a ceremony that felt perfect to our story. In the weeks leading up, she was our calm in the chaos—answering every question, even helping us with last minute vendor coordination when we had our florist and makeup artist suddenly cancel. She made sure we felt supported every step of the way. On the day itself, she showed up with this quiet confidence and warmth that made us both instantly relax. Standing there, listening to the script, we felt completely present—like the rest of the world had disappeared and it was just us. It was emotional, it was joyful, had the perfect notes of humor true to us and it was exactly what we had hoped for, only better. Our friends and family still talk about how beautiful and personal it was. Adirondack Ever After didn’t just officiate our wedding—she made it a moment we’ll carry in our hearts forever.”

“Choosing the right person to officiate our wedding was one of the most important decisions we made, and we can't express how grateful we are to have found Steve from Erie Wedding Officiants. From our very first meeting, we knew we were in good hands. He listened to our story with genuine interest, asked thoughtful questions about our relationship, and immediately made us feel comfortable. The ceremony itself was nothing short of perfect. Steve created a script that was so personal and heartfelt. He seamlessly blended humor and sincerity, keeping our guests engaged and making everyone feel a part of the moment. We received so many compliments afterward about how unique and touching our ceremony was. Beyond the beautiful words, his professionalism was outstanding. He handled all of the legal paperwork with ease, arrived early to our rehearsal and the wedding day, and had a calm, reassuring presence that helped put our nerves at ease. We weren't just hiring someone to perform a service; we were collaborating with someone who cared about making our day special. We highly recommend Steve or any of the officiants from Erie Wedding Officiants to any couple looking for someone who will not only marry them but will also craft a meaningful, unforgettable ceremony that reflects who they are.”
