Meet Officiant Stephanie

Raised between the United States and Germany as an Army Brat, Stephanie grew up with a deep appreciation for diversity and a strong sense of fairness. Now rooted in the Kansas City area, she brings her professional background as a technical writer for a small engineering company—complete with a keen attention to detail and a big-picture perspective—to crafting heartfelt, personalized ceremonies.

As an ordained Priestess of Aphrodite and practicing Witch for over 25 years, Stephanie is a passionate advocate for love in all its forms, proudly supporting the LGBTQIA+ community. With years of experience officiating weddings for friends and loved ones, she is dedicated to celebrating the whimsy and unique beauty in every couple’s journey. Whether it’s honoring your quirks or commemorating those bright moments that define your relationship, Stephanie will work closely with you to craft a ceremony that reflects your story and vision.

When she’s not weaving magic into wedding ceremonies, Stephanie is immersed in her passions. A lifelong Trekkie, she’s an integral part of an inclusive Arthurian LARP, moderates an online coven, and is proud to work at Planet Comicon Kansas City. She also spends her time booth babing at the Kansas City Renaissance Festival, crafting her own jewelry, and caring for her guinea pigs alongside her beloved husband.

Stephanie can’t wait to help you create the day of your dreams—a day filled with love, laughter, and moments you’ll cherish forever.
