Steven Conn, Wedding Officiant
Ordained Minister in Scottsdale, Arizona
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I became an ordained minister because I wanted to help couples get married and be part of one of the most important days of their lives. I enjoy getting to know each couple, learning their story, and creating a ceremony that feels personal and meaningful to them.
As a wedding officiant, I believe a ceremony can be simple and intimate or more traditional, while still making the couple feel that the moment is truly theirs. I also enjoy helping couples through the entire process—from preparing for the ceremony to understanding the marriage license and what happens afterward.
