Honor Your Voice with Celebrant Stacy

Stacy officated at our wedding on October 22, 2011 in Avila Beach, CA. She did the most amazing job!!!! I found her here on wedding wire and am sooo grateful I did. Stacy is really in tune to finding out exactly what type of ceremony you are dreaming of and making that dream come true. She is truly a blessing and we are soo happy we got to have her officate at our wedding.

Stacey help make our wedding day truly special, and I highly recommend her to anyone getting married. She was very professional, easy to work with with and very supportive on our wedding day when I was nervous. My husband and I are very particular and we had a clear vision of what we wanted for our marriage ceremony. Stacey gave us a uniquely romantic service that was truly beautiful. Stacey creativity and experience gave her the ability to build us the perfect wedding vows that included all of the aspects we asked for and much more. Stacey even thought to asked me what she should wear to the ceremony so she would match in with the wedding colors.

Stacy officiated at our wedding in Paso Robles. As background I want to note that we felt that choosing the celebrant was one of our most important wedding decisions. We had been to a handful of weddings in the previous year, and although the celebrants all did well, we knew that the right celebrant for another couple might not be right for us, and vice versa. We also did NOT want a friend or relative to marry us because we had been to several ceremonies at which the celebrant (a friend of the groom) spoke more about the groom than the bride, and that seemed out of place. We also wanted someone who would make the ceremony unique and personalized, and not just have us select from a "menu" of choices.So, we started by sending email inquiries to a handful of celebrants and met face-to-face with the three whose responses we liked best. We had provided our wedding website in our initial email inquiry and when we first met with Stacy, it was clear she had spent time reading over our website. (And, both my husband and I like to write, so there was LOTS to read.) She definitely made more of an effort to prepare for our meeting than the others had and seemed genuinely interested in getting to know us. We felt that her warmth and her interest in hearing our story would likely result in a more personal, meaningful ceremony, and it absolutely DID. In addition to talking at length at our first meeting, she later had us answer (in writing) quite a few questions about our relationship and about each other. Using our meeting and our written answers as the backdrop, she wrote the ceremony and provided it to us in writing, word for word.The end result was WONDERFUL: a very personal ceremony, one that was unique to us and our relationship. It wasn't just about the generalities of marriage and relationships; it was about us. It truly was the perfect tone, fitting us and our view of our marriage and our wedding day beautifully. She even allowed us to edit the draft as much as we wanted and she also allowed us to incorporate our own ideas. So, we highly recommend Stacy if you are looking for someone who is professional and experienced and very good at what she does. She will listen to you and get to know you, and create a personal ceremony that fits both you and the tone of your wedding. She will guide you and inspire you, but will give YOU ultimate control over your ceremony. (For instance, this might sound unimportant, but she even showed us several options for her attire and let us pick what SHE would wear. When you consider all the photos that are taken during a wedding ceremony, what a celebrant wears DOES matter.) She was also responsive to emails, reliable about providing drafts when she said she would, and she was on time for our first meeting, our rehearsal, and the wedding. We are SO very glad that we selected Stacy!

We were so pleased with having Stacy involved in our wedding. She was everything we hoped we would find in our celebrant. I really feel that she listened to what we had to say and really knew us as a couple and that showed in what she put together for us. The ceremony was beautifully put together and everything she chose was amazing, personal, and very suited to both my husband and I.

The experience we had with Stacy was wonderful! She was extremely helpful and caring. She truly made a difference with her guidence. She's such a lovely person!Our wedding day was so special!

Stacy was the perfect person to officiate our wedding. My husband is agnostic and I am Christian, so forming the perfect ceremony that blended both beliefs was one of the major obstacles of planning our wedding. I am so glad that I found Stacy. Without her, our wedding would not have been as perfect as it was. She took ideas from both me and my husband and formed a beautiful ceremony around them that accurately portrayed our love for each other and our differing religious views. She was wonderfully responsive to our requests for the few revisions that we wanted, as well as an unexpected last minute addition to the ceremony. We also received many compliments about the ceremony from our guests. I could not see anybody but Stacy officiating our wedding. She's amazing!

My fiance and I were having an out of state wedding in Missouri. We were getting married at HaHaTonka State Park, and needed an officiant who was willing to travel and work with us even though we were not local. Stacy did a wonderful job of getting to know us over the phone and by email. She wrote a ceremony that was personalized for us and was absolutely beautiful! We could not have been more pleased with the results!

Stacy was great. She was very flexable with what we had in mind and was creative in suggesting details that we had not thought about. Our wedding was beautiful with Stacy's help. I would not have chosen any other officiant for that day. She is great at what she does. If we ever renew our vows, Stacy will be the one to do it.

Stacy took the time to get to know us as a couple and helped us figure out what we wanted for our ceremony. She listened to our ideas and suggested content that she thought might fit our needs.

An amazing officiant! Stacy Wilhoit made my wedding celebration absolutely beautiful. The ceremony was unique and was perfectly suited towards my husband and I. Stacy sat down with us, gave us questionaires and truely tried to figure out who we were. In doing this, she was able to create our perfect ceremony. My family and friends all commented on the wonderfully unique style that Stacy brought to the wedding ceremony. Not only do I have the perfect day to remember, but I will always treasure the actual typed script as a momento of my day. I would highly recommend Stacy to any engaged couple looking for a unique experience that will be perfectly taylored towards them.

Stacy really listened to what I was wanting in a service - she took a lot of time to help me write and prepare the ceremony. She was wonderful in every way. She is a caring person who truely wants to make the dreams of her clients come true. She is an excellent listener and has the ability to turn your dream ceremony into a reality. I cannot express enough what a wonderful job she did and how comforting it was to have her as my officiant. She is a remarkable person.
