About VaVow Cermemonies

VaVow Cermemonies (Officiant: Steven B.)

Award-Winning Ordained Officiant & Ceremony Celebrant

As the owner and lead officiant for VaVow Ceremonies, Steve is the heart and voice behind the memorable ceremonies. For him, being an officiant is much more than just reading a script and signing a marriage license—it is the profound honor of standing beside two people as they make the ultimate promise to one another. Because every love story is completely unique, Steve believes every wedding ceremony should reflect that individuality perfectly. Steve's passion lies in taking the time to truly get to know each couple—their quirks, their shared laughter, their values, and the quiet moments that built their foundation.

What Couples Can Expect: A Calming Presence: Weddings can be stressful, but the ceremony shouldn't be. Steve brings a blend of warmth, professionalism, and a touch of lightheartedness to ensure couples feel completely at ease at the altar. Custom-Crafted Scripts: He collaborates closely with couples to create a ceremony script that hits all the right notes—whether that means tears of joy, roaring laughter, or a beautiful mix of both. An Inclusive Celebration: Love is love. Steve proudly and joyfully celebrates couples of all backgrounds, traditions, and orientations.

In three words: Collaborative, Flexible, Supportive

    Amazing experience

    Steve did an absolutely amazing job as our wedding officiant! He took the time to meet with us beforehand and crafted a beautiful ceremony that shared our story perfectly with our guests. Not only was the ceremony itself flawless, but he was also prompt, efficient, and completely professional from start to finish. We are so grateful for his help in making our day so special!

    Five stars truly doesn’t feel like enough! Steven made what initially felt like a daunting task—creating our wedding ceremony—so fun and easy. He took so much time to get to know both of us and created a ceremony that felt incredibly personal, lighthearted, and completely true to us. Steven made sure to get to know us both as a couple and individuals and truly cared about creating a relationship beyond “the officiant”. By our wedding day, it felt like someone we had known for years was marrying us. The ceremony was absolutely perfect, and we couldn’t have imagined a better person to share the moment with. We cannot recommend Steven enough! Thank you Steven and VaVow!! 💕

Yes! VaVow Ceremonies specializes in creating fully personalized and customized ceremonies that reflect your unique story as a couple. This means that every element, from the readings and music to the vows and rituals, can be tailored to your preferences. You have the freedom to design a ceremony that is meaningful and authentic to you, whether you want to include family traditions, cultural elements, or something completely new. With VaVow Ceremonies, you're not limited to a typical or standard ceremony script. Our celebrant, Steven, will work closely with you to craft a ceremony that perfectly captures your personalities and shared love.
We understand that getting legally married beforehand is a practical choice for many couples, and it certainly doesn't diminish the importance of having a heartfelt ceremony to celebrate your union with loved ones. In fact, it often gives you more freedom to design a celebration that is exactly what you want, without the pressure of legal requirements. Many of the couples we work with choose this path. It allows us to focus entirely on crafting a beautiful, personalized ceremony that tells your unique love story and celebrates this special milestone with the people who matter most to you.
Yes, we do! A rehearsal is a great way to ensure everyone feels comfortable and confident on the big day. Often, a same-day rehearsal is included as part of your ceremony package. We find this works beautifully, allowing us to walk through the ceremony flow with your wedding party just before the celebration begins. If you'd like a separate, full rehearsal on a different day, we can certainly accommodate that. We'll simply create a customized quote and proposal that fits your specific needs. This way, you get exactly the level of support you're looking for to make sure your ceremony is seamless and stress-free.
We do not require premarital counseling. We believe that planning your ceremony is an opportunity to focus on your story and what makes your relationship special. While we don't provide formal counseling, many couples find that our collaborative process of creating the ceremony is a lot like a fun and interactive therapy session. As we work together, you'll have the chance to reflect on your journey as a couple, share what you love most about each other, and talk about your hopes for the future. This process often feels very meaningful and brings you even closer together as you get ready for this exciting new chapter.
I am an officially ordained celebrant and have had the joy of officiating dozens of weddings for couples all across New England. Each ceremony is a unique and special experience, and it's been an honor to be a part of so many beautiful love stories. I am also a proud member of the International Association of Professional Wedding Officiants (IAPWO). This organization is a fantastic resource that supports officiants worldwide, ensuring we uphold the highest standards of professionalism and stay connected with the best practices in the industry.
VaVow Ceremonies has been a passion project of mine for several years now. The business truly emerged during COVID, out of a deep desire to help people connect and celebrate their love in a deeply personal and meaningful way, even when faced with so many challenges. I've been so honored to help couples create a moment of joy and connection, and it's been incredibly rewarding to be a part of so many beautiful love stories since then.
