Amazing to work with!
/ Samantha M.Deborah was beyond amazing! She was so helpful during the wedding planning and answered all of my (many) questions. She even thought of things that helped me with other areas of the wedding! She was always one step ahead of us thinking of the little details that are easily forgotten. The day of the ceremony she was so calm that it calmed everyone else down as well. We had so many guests come up to us to tell us how amazing they thought she was.
Best Officiant around!!!
/ KellyThe wedding day was an emotional one .I didn’t even get to spend the extra time with her that she had personally carved out for us, but through the madness, Deb remained professional and courteous throughout all of the chaos! Because of the pandemic, and all of its restrictions, we had to cancel most of our vendors, and modify our original plan. We are so grateful that Deborah Hoch of “An Everlasting Memory” wasn’t one of them! highly recommend
Creative and Memorable
/ Melonie and ScottDeborah, was wonderful! In our journey to choose the right officiant and Deborah was the only one who called me back to actually speak with us and not just send an email. She made us feel comfortable and asked a-lot of question to get to know us and our family to make sure the ceremony was just the way we wanted, despite covid! I would definitely recommend her services. Prompt, professional and gave a calmness to a crazy day!

Highly Recommended Officiant
/ Nick C.After meeting Reverend Deborah at Crestwood Country Club's food tasting, we were so pleased and impressed with her compassion and her professionalism. We knew right then and there, we had to book her to be our officiant at our wedding. We received such good advise and direction from Rev. Deb. She also had so many great vow options to choose from, which allowed us to still have a bit of tradition but with a unique twist in our ceremony. Thankful
Intimate and beautiful!
/ Dawn and Ronnievery bride attempting to marry in 2020 is well aware of the challenges of planning a wedding at this time. My husband and I had to make multiple changes to our plans & Deborah was very patient and accommodating. She was able to summon the right words for our ceremony to influence the mood we were striving for- living in 6 months of uncertainty- everyone needed to feel humor, relief, happiness, & love- Deborah was able to achieve that.

/ Cathy and SamanthaDeborah was a pleasure to work with in every way! From our first contact through our final goodbyes, she was excellent at reading us in the moment and providing us the guidance we needed.

The best officiant around!
/ Elizabeth G.Deborah is the most amazing person. She is now officially our family JP. She married my Sister, my Daughter, and now my Husband and I. She makes a very stressful, nervous, exciting day so calm and fun. She had everyone laughing, and even got on record that my husband vows to do the dishes. Deborah will customize everything for you down to what she wears. Believe me when I tell you, You will be so happy you called her.I can't wait to see her again
The Best there is
/ Karen G.We could not have asked for more at our wedding. Rev Deb was so wonderful and due to Covid and half the family on zoom, she made sure that everyone present and those on zoom were very much involved. Her warmth and professionalism helped us feel at ease and we are forever grateful to her for our perfect little wedding.
the Boyle's 2020 Wedding
/ Xiomara B.Deborah was very professional throughout the entire wedding planning process. She responds quickly and made us feel so comfortable, always letting us know that it was our day so we can choose how it goes. The nerves I felt on the day quickly went away when Deborah began the ceremony. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a brilliant officiant.
Wonderful Experience!
