Larissa was great!!

I chatted with a few officiants, and it was Larissa who seemed the coolest, down-to-earth officiant with solid experience. The process to ultimately have the speech was easy, and she wrote out a speech that met my exact needs. Day off she hung out in my bridal suite and was so lovely to my bridesmaids and mom. And everything culminated to a beautiful ceremony. Larissa is wonderful, added bonus that she has a British accent (I had a bunch of guests from London/Europe, Americans loved it too!)

Larissa made our day more beautiful

We could not have been happier with Larissa’s professionalism, courtesy and lovely personality. From the start, she was responsive, helpful and gave us great guidance for our vows. Our elopement was more fun with her and it was pleasure to have her officiate our special day. Highly recommend!
