The Best Ceremony of My Life - My 90 Year old Great Aunt

Laurie did such a fantastic job at the ceremony! There was a level of personalization and detail that we have never encountered before. We had family members come up to us after the ceremony stating they had learned more about our personalities and relationship from Laurie's brief ceremony than they had from knowing us our entire lives. She perfectly hit all the emotional notes from humour to somberness. It was by far the most beautiful and touching ceremony either of us had ever seen.

She is affordable, and was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. We seriously can't overstate how amazing she is.

Most amazing ceremony!!!

Laurie was an absolute delight. Her process for making our ceremony unique to us and having backup plans incase anything were to happen made the planning process stress-free and made the ceremony feel incredibly special and personal. She made a unique script for our ceremony including things our loved ones had said about our relationship that even after 2 weeks, our guests are still telling us how much they loved the ceremony and was Laurie said. My husband and I are so happy we went with Laurie and will never forget how special she made our day. We would 100% recommend her to anyone to be their JP!

Best.Day.Ever.

Laurie is an AMAZING wedding officiant. We asked and she delivered. Laurie took the time to get to know us, ask us questions and was able to capture the small, special moments of how we met and infuse them into our wedding ceremony flawlessly. We enjoyed her wit and energy that she brought. Best officiant out there in our books!

Exactly what we asked for!

Laurie was amazing right from first contact to the day of our little ceremony. We didn't want anything fancy, long, or too wordy. We asked for something "short and sweet," and that is exactly what we got. She was very flexible, easy to work with, personable, professional and fun. She has a really good read on people. I would highly recommend her to anyone wishing to tie-the-know :)

She is amazing!! Literally a last minute wedding and she was there. Right on time, she definitely came through. She did such a good speech for us and got our story to the point. So, friendly and we had so many laughs. I highly recommend this amazing woman.

Wonderful officiant!

We had the pleasure of having Laurie as our officiant for our elopement ceremony on April.9 ,2024. From the very beginning Laurie walked us through the steps we had to do, sent us reminders, and was quick to respond to questions I had. She personalized our ceremony and offered to print out our vows so we’re able to keep them in a scrap book or frame them afterwards. We loved every second of it, and can’t recommend her enough. 10/10 experience for sure!

The BEST wedding Officiant

We are so happy that we had Laurie as part of our special day. From the moment we met her, we knew she was the Officiant we wanted, so we didn't even bother meeting with anyone else. She is so kind, funny and absolutely lovely to work with. She made our ceremony fun, light hearted and unforgettable. We are so grateful for how amazing she was not only on the day of but as we got to know her the almost 2 years leading up to it. She puts together your love story with anecdotes from family members, ourselves and some of her own words and turns it into a beautiful storytelling. She truly cares about the couples she works with and our guests could not stop raving about her. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much Laurie!

Absolutely wonderful

We can’t say enough good things about Laurie. She is flexible, thoughtful, and took the time to explain everything and make sure we knew what to do. She personalized our service, and it was perfect, made our amazing day even better.

About Me

My husband and I recently moved to Innisfail, Alberta.

We met on E-Harmony 9 years ago. I fell in love with him at about the 3rd date. And I kissed him first. :)

​

Between the two of us, we have three grown children, a Goldendoodle, and a very spoiled MaineCoon.

​

I'm into my fourth year of being a professional wedding officiant. I feel it's the best job in the whole world.

​

I'm also a Funeral celebrant.

A perfect mom (just ask me), a lover of gardening, sewing and pretty much all girlie things.

​And a very proud participant of Choices Seminars
