What an AMAZING Ceremony!

Lara is a FANTASTIC officiant! We originally were going to have a church wedding and changed our minds at the very last possible minute (3 months before our wedding date!). When we reached out to Lara to see if this was something she could help us with she was beyond accommodating and understanding. Lara had us fill out her forms on her website right away to get the ball rolling. From our responses, she put together a beautiful custom ceremony that had our guests laughing and tearing up, which made our day so special and unique to us! On the big day, Lara came in early to set up and do sound checks with the DJs to ensure a seamless ceremony. Thank you so much Lara, you saved the day!

Amazing experience!

Working with Lara to create our wedding ceremony was a wonderful experience. Every interaction was very pleasant, professional, and straightforward - Lara made the entire process super easy and stress-free, which I'm sure every bride-to-be can appreciate! She made an effort to understand which traditions/themes we wanted to include or exclude from the ceremony. Most importantly, she made sure to highlight the quirky little details and stories that made the evening feel uniquely ours. So many family members and friends have told me how beautiful our ceremony was and how much it captured our relationship and our vibe. I highly recommend Lara to anyone looking for an officiant!
