“My biggest regret is not booking with Lori sooner! Starting from most important reason – Lori was an amazing officiant. She made our ceremony special and unique to us. I get goosebumps thinking about it! It was beautiful and we still get compliments from our guests three months later. She took time to get to know us to make sure it was tailored to us and our love story. We loved how great of a job she did at making our ceremony not boring and not stuffy. You could tell that Lori truly loves what she does. Everything was seamless from beginning to end. Lori is very good at communicating during the entire process and is very organized. She was very clear on instructions on for all the legal stuff needed from my side. If you are thinking about booking Lori and team, I highly recommend it! You will not be upset! THANK YOU AGAIN, LORI!!! We decided to have her perform a hand-fasting ceremony. She was so helpful down to the details – from helping us pick cord colors to dying them herself.
