Truly Wonderful Experience

We couldn’t have asked for a better officiant for our wedding. From the very first meeting, she was kind, professional, and truly took the time to get to know us as a couple. She crafted a ceremony that was both personal and beautifully written — it reflected our story perfectly and felt so meaningful to everyone present. Her calm presence and genuine warmth set the tone for the entire day. We received so many compliments about how heartfelt and memorable the ceremony was. We’re so grateful to have had her as part of our special day!

Lori was the obvious choice

I know Lori from a Facebook group that she runs, so when it came to the time to find an officiant for my wedding, I knew it had to be Lori. Communication with her was great. She walked us through the process very clearly. I loved that she was flexible catering to our needs and preferences. On the day of, she was very punctual and provided the calm and warm energy that helped my high excitement and anxiety day. Her attention to detail was on point, from thinking ahead about sending the marriage certificate to providing a nice pen for the paper signing. Would definitely recommend Lori for your special day.

Lori is wonderful

We hired Lori to "officially" marry us right before our wedding ceremony, which was led by our friend who could not legally marry us. Lori was super responsive, professional, and worked with our timeline. On our wedding day, she was punctual, warm, and added a really nice moment to the day before the larger event started. I would definitely recommend Lori's services!

Amazing officiant!

If you are wondering who to pick to play such a special role in your day, look no further!! Lori is an incredible officiant! Throughout the whole planning process she was on top of everything, extremely responsive and took the time to go through everything with us step by step. With the stress of planning on a wedding she made sure that none of it came from her role in the wedding. It was a pleasure working with her and I would highly recommend Lori for any wedding!!

Caring, helpful, and professional. Lori was fabulous.

It was a wonderful experience with Lori. From our initial meeting, throughout the planning meetings, and on the day itself, Lori was wonderful to work with. We couldn't have asked for more. In particular, Lori was very flexible and seamlessly incorporated some Iranian traditions into our ceremony. She performed a beautiful ceremony, setting a perfect tone with her warmth and positive energy.

Perfect Saturday wedding with Lori

Lori is such a kind, caring and professional officiant. From the moment we met her we felt at ease and knew we found the person we wanted to perform our low key, informal ceremony. Lori was flexible and incorporated any suggestions or modifications with ease. Our guests commented on how much they liked her. We would wholeheartedly recommend Lori to anyone and everyone! Thank you Lori for making Plan B in Suite C such a success.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
