Lauri Goes Above and Beyond!!!!
Laurie was an amazing officiant for our wedding. From our first meeting, she was professional, organized, and genuinely cared about making our ceremony special and personal. Lauri met with us on a few occasions to work with us and never made us feel pressured for time. She is a lovely lady who always made us feel comfortable throughout the process. The ceremony was beautifully delivered and she helped us add little touches that we would have never thought about making it personalized for our situation. Many of our guests commented on how heartfelt and meaningful it was. We are so grateful for the role Laurie played in making our wedding day perfect and would highly recommend her to any couple looking for a wonderful officiant.
Lauri Ingram•Jun 12, 2026Thank you both so much for this beautiful review — it genuinely brought a smile to my face! It was such a privilege to be part of your wedding journey. Getting to know you, hearing your story, and helping shape a ceremony that truly felt like *you* is exactly why I love what I do. The little personal touches are always my favorite part, and I'm so glad your guests felt that warmth too. You two were an absolute pleasure, and I wish you a lifetime full of love, laughter, and joy together. Thank you for trusting me with such an important moment!

Memorable ceremony
Lauri was amazing to work with! In our meetings along with back and forth communication Lauri put together a wonderful ceremony. We wanted to have a ceremony that described our love for each other, telling the story of how we met, while also holding our religious beliefs. We could not have asked for a better ceremony. Her suggestion to include our parents in the blessing of the rings was really special and a moment we will never forget.
Lauri Ingram•May 27, 2026Thank you both so much for your beautiful review. It was truly a pleasure working with you throughout the planning process and helping create a ceremony that honored your love story while also reflecting your faith and values. I loved hearing how you met and weaving those meaningful moments into a ceremony that felt personal, heartfelt, and uniquely yours. I’m so glad the blessing of the rings with your parents became a memory you’ll always carry with you. Thank you again for your trust, kindness, and collaboration throughout this journey. Wishing you both a lifetime of love, faith, happiness, and many beautiful memories together.

We are so incredibly grateful to have had Lauri officiate our wedding! From our very first conversation, she was warm, professional, and genuinely invested in making our ceremony personal and meaningful. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, made us feel comfortable, listened carefully to our story, and crafted a ceremony that felt authentic, heartfelt, and very much like us. On the wedding day, she spoke beautifully, keeping our guests engaged while creating an intimate and emotional atmosphere. Many of our guests after the ceremony mentioned how much they enjoyed it and what a great job Lauri did. She really went above and beyond and explained each step clearly, helped with vows, and ensured all legal details were handled perfectly. Highly recommend Lauri to any couple looking for someone who truly cares and delivers a wonderful ceremony!

Would recommend Reverend Lauri to everyone!!
Lauri was such an important part of our special day. We had constant communication with her up to and even after our wedding day. She made sure that everything in the marriage certificate process went smoothly and guided us along the way! She took into account all our special/religious requests and make our ceremony so personal and so special. I honestly was worried months and even years before the wedding that the ceremony would be uncomfortable and awkward, but Lauri made things fun, interactive, and short & sweet!!! Said what needed to be said without dragging it out. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an open minded and kind hearted officiant for their wedding. Thank you so much for being there for us Lauri!! The Varones

Exceptional Wedding Officiant
Lauri was exceptional from start to finish. She met with us multiple times, took the time to explain our options, and sent us all our ceremony details for our review. The ceremony was a true reflection of us as a couple. I could not have asked for a better experience. Many people commented on how well done the ceremony was.
