Great experience with Lora

Lora was extremely flexible and helpful during the entire process leading up to our wedding day.
She helped ensure our ceremony ran smoothly and felt special for both my wife and myself.
100% would recommend Lora.

Our big day!

Absolute pleasure meeting and working with Lora. Professional, friendly, and just overall kind, we can not say enough about her. Tons of options for vows so something for everyone and she personalized the ceremony to us which was amazing! Even through in a surprise "Will you adopt me" moment from my step daughter which had the crowd in happy tears along with me.

Just, the perfect way to start the perfect day!

Short notice surprise.

Me and my fiance decided to surprise our family and friends with a wedding ceremony without their knowing. Despite it being less than week between the decision and the intended date, Lora was more than accommodating and shared in our excitement. It went off without a hitch! And it will be a day we will always remember due in part to Lora's flexibility and joy. Thanks so much!

Would Highly Recommend!!

We had a fantastic experience with Lora and Say I Do With Love. We would recommend Lora as an officiant to any couple looking! Lora was very friendly and helpful through the whole process. We were married on Lora's property which was just stunning and we received nothing but complements the whole time. It was a perfect day!

Excellent experience!

Our experience was seamless with Lora, we had a last minute request and she was accommodating to not only a same sex wedding but we requested a specific process and ceremony. She was able to provide witnesses, and they were extremely friendly. They welcomed us into their home to sign the papers, explained the process and gave us a little gift and took photos! I could not have asked for a better experience and would recommend to anyone!

Amazing and accommodating

We would highly recommend Lora.
She has been very responsive during our planning and extremely accommodating when we ran into issues with timing.
We made the mistake of saying we would be having a celebration abroad before our legal ceremony in Canada while obtaining our marriage license. City officials were determined to ensure we wouldn't be eligible for a marriage certificate by writing to the receiver general.
When we reached out to Lora she went out of her way to ensure our special day remained special. She changed her plans and opened her home to us to make it legal.
The big shock to us was that she still planned to come on our date of choice, which for us was the one major "want" for our wedding
Lora has been absolutely amazing, exceeding all of our expectations. We would highly recommend her.

Personal & Professional- Highly Recommend!!!

Newly married on October 5, 2024 to the love of my life and Rev. Lora Nedkov made these dreams a reality! Rev. Lora was easy to work with, she arranged simple online zoom meetings, questionnaires for the Bride and Groom & our closest loved ones to ensure the ceremony reflected us uniquely as a couple and was still traditional enough to feel authentic and true! Lora was willing to tailor our ceremony to meet our directions and desires; we wanted short, simple and sweet and she made that shine bright !!! She had already prepared our paperwork to ensure signing for the ceremony was quick and efficient yet long enough for signing pictures. She dressed beautifully so she would look lovely and professional in photos but always knew when to step out of the way for those “special shots”…. i highly recommend working with Rev. Lora Nedkov as your wedding officiant!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Hello

I would love to be part of your day! I enjoy working with couples to make sure they are part of the process in creating a memorable day.

I have been married to my wonderful husband for 3 years, who will be joining me as an officiant in 2021. We live in Fonthill close to the downtown, but fortunate to enjoy a beautiful property backing onto trails. My Aussiedoodle, Frankie and cat, Clark enjoy living in our slowly but surely 1894 ongoing renovated home, where we plan on offering a bed and breakfast for overnight guests. Our location is perfect for an intimate outdoor wedding of ten or less, and close enough to Niagara Falls for a honeymoon or romantic visit.

We are both avid hikers and spend 2 or three weeks a year traveling to various locations with the mountains, being our favourite. We have been many times to the Camino Trail and enjoy nature.

My style is very easy going, as I think it's important to be able to accomodate various types of weddings and requests. I would be happy to skype, ichat or have a call, should you want to discuss further as it's important to get to each other before booking an officiant.

As a Counsellor for the past 20 years, I also offer pre and post relationship counselling sessions. My background can be found at loranedkov.com. I am an ACIM student and teacher, and also an intuitive, so you and or your partner receive information that can assist you immediately with any concerns.
