From the moment we asked Patrick to officiate our wedding he put 100% of his energy into making our ceremony special. His thoughtful inclusion of personal details represented us and our relationship so accurately. The result of his attentive preparation was a ceremony that was both professional and personal at the same time. He was also extremely helpful in coordinating the licensing and paperwork that was necessary for our out-of-state wedding. We feel so fortunate to have had Patrick's participation in our wonderful wedding day!

We were so lucky to find Patrick! He absolutely made the ceremony we were dreaming of come true. We met with him 2 months prior to the ceremony and it was clear that we had struck gold with a true professional partner to help us craft a perfect ceremony. And on our wedding day, Patrick's heartwarming nature and heartfelt delivery had our guests in smiles, laughs, and tears.
He will be a true joy to work with, a great conversationalist at your reception, and will deliver a ceremony you and your guests will be raving about for years to come.

Patrick Browning is such a wonderful kind soul. I just had to reach out and ask him to officiate our wedding.
I honestly couldn't think of a better person for the job.
He is thoughtful, understanding and passionate with any task he takes on. He is comfortable and at ease getting up in front of a group of people (that he doesn't know) to get the conversations and toasts going.
He is a warm heart and a true blessing to include on such a special day.

We knew the first time we spoke that we wanted Patrick as our officiant. He was thoughtful, kind, funny, and a joy to work with.
He made the whole process easy and our ceremony was perfect.
He was respectful of what we wanted but also had helpful suggestions which truly enhanced our special day. We can not recommend him enough!

From the first call to the day of our wedding, Patrick was there every step of the way! The detail in his vows captured us, they were thoughtful, funny, and true to our personalities. He showed up in a cowboy hat, which was PERFECT for our 10,000 foot mountain top wedding in the winter. His wife, Christy, helped by streaming our ceremony live to family and friends. We felt loved by both of them and they were a wonderful part of our day.

She Said: Patrick Browning was wonderful and helpful. He guided us through the process and helped us make the ceremony our own.
He said: I really enjoyed working with Patrick Browning. We filled out a simple questionaire, and Patrick called us and had a simple conversation about us and our story. He then crafted a beautiful ceremony, and was gracious and helpful when we made edits. Without a rehearsal, Patrick hosted a lovely ceremony and nailed it!

Patrick made our ceremony feel very special. From planning, to the rehearsal, to the big day he was very attentive, professional, and easy to work with. His suggestions were right on the money. We asked for a short and sweet ceremony with lots of heart, and Patrick did an amazing job! We could not have asked for a better officiant.

We are so pleased that we found Simple Ceremonies. Patrick Browning's easy-going nature made the process of writing the ceremony easy and fun.
He touched our lives, made us smile, and brought on the tears. At our request, he read three passages from the Bible that reflected our faith.
You will not be disappointed when you select Patrick to officiate your wedding.

Patrick was fantastic! Not only did he pull off a wonderful ceremony for my wife and I, he accomplished it with only THREE DAYS NOTICE! Since our families live out of state, Patrick's wife, Christy, and son Ryan attended and helped with taking pictures and were wonderful to meet. We are truly grateful to have Patrick officiate, and the Browning family be there for our special day. We highly recommend Patrick and Simple Ceremonies!

We simply did a search for "wedding officiant Steamboat Springs." Simple Ceremonies popped right up. We studied the site and found that it fit our desires perfectly. Patrick was a joy to work with. We found that we were similar in age and that lead to several delightful phone conversations.
He guided us through composing the ceremony, making suggestions and sometimes pulling us in the right direction. He allowed and encouraged us to include two of our favorite country songs. We smiled all the way through the event. We enthusiastically recommend Patrick for your wedding!

We planned our 20th anniversary vow renewal with just the two of us and our two kids. Our dream was a winter mountain-top ceremony on the snow with the sun on our shoulders and ski runs in the background. What we got was what Patrick called a
"Sideways Blizzard!"
Patrick took charge and guided us into an area where trees protected us from the wind with a view a Steamboat Gondola lift tower.
Throughout the process, Patrick was upbeat, humorous, and business like. We felt that our renewal was conducted by an old friend.
You will be please that you found him.
