We were unsure about any details when we reached out to Ric but knew an officiant was the most important part. Ric was quick to respond. He also gave a couple venue suggestions in the area and one of them ended up being the spot we used. He was willing to work with our very short timeline, met us at the venue to take a little time to get to know us. His online form is detailed so he can plan out a ceremony script that works for your unique situation. Our wedding was a small, elopement style with 14 family members from 5 different religions backgrounds. Ric was able to write our a ceremony that all of them commented was both beautiful and tasteful. My husband and I highly recommended Ric for his professionalism and kindness. He has a clear passion and skill for his profession. If I could give higher than 5 starts I would. He got at least an additional star for recommending an amazing photographer.

Pat just officiated our wedding this past weekend at the Madonna Inn. I got so many comments from…read moremy bridal party and guests about how amazing he was with communication and his energy he brought with him. He was a dream to work with. Always super calm, patient and gave a lot of options for how to move forward with the flow of the ceremony (this was especially helpful during the rehearsal since I was super overwhelmed.) He was our rock that kept us steady in the waves of chaos when it came to the actual day of the ceremony. I highly recommend working with SLO Ministers. It took so much of the stress and pressure off of our friends and family to have a professional officiant. Pat was also super into the different ceremonial elements we incorporated since my partner is Filipino. He also stayed around and announced us into our reception space which felt so special. Thank you again Pat and SLO Ministers for helping create a seamless and super special ceremony!!!

We could not have selected a better officiant for our wedding than Stacy. She performed a lovely…read moreceremony that was exactly what we were hoping for. Her process for getting to know us was extremely thorough, involving a meeting and detailed questionnaire. Stacy knew all the right questions to ask and quickly picked up on the direction we'd like the ceremony to go. Then, she provided us with a draft of what she'd like to say well ahead of time so we could review and make any final edits or comments (this is optional of course). During the ceremony, Stacy delivered her words wonderfully, and really captured the moment and spirit we hoped to create. Afterwards, our family and friends couldn't stop raving about what an amazing job she did and how much they loved the ceremony. If you're looking for a perceptive officiant who will really get to know you individually and as a couple and will create a ceremony that represents what is important to you, Stacy will make an excellent choice. We are thrilled to highly recommend her. Thank you Stacy!

Planning a wedding from out of town in Paso Robles could've been overwhelming, but she made the entire process feel manageable. She was always quick to respond to our texts, happy to jump on calls, and incredibly patient with our questions. Her strong relationships with local vendors were so helpful and she handled little things that could've easily sent us over the edge. The biggest testament to Amanda's professionalism and calm-under-pressure attitude came during our actual wedding weekend. PG&E had to shut off the power at our venue the day before and the day of our wedding due to the strong winds and fire safety protocols. It could've been a total disaster but Amanda stepped in and worked hand in hand with our band and the venue coordinator to problem-solve on the fly. She kept everything moving and made sure our day still felt special, despite the chaos behind the scenes. If you're planning a wedding in Paso, we can't recommend Amanda enough. She's organized, thoughtful, resourceful, and genuinely invested in making your day as perfect as possible.
