cathedral ceilings
we have cathedral ceilings that we want to hand a pendant foyer light from. How do you create a "box" to support a ceiling electrical box at the peak of the ceiling. In our dining room my husband put the electrical box to the side, but with the type of light I picked out it has to hang directly from the closest part of the peak straight down

You're vaulted ceiling, (cathedral ceiling) probablly has a beam running down the length of the peak. Use a small nail to test this, but I'd bet there's a solid beam up there under the sheetrock that you can hang your light from. You may have to notch it a bit to get the elec box installed. Without knowing more about the exact structure of your house that would be my best guess. This might be a time to call in a pro.
