Lorrie did a fantastic job on our wedding day. We were late in getting our ceremony organized and did everything remotely as we were coming to town from out of state; nevertheless, her presentation and professionalism gave us an intimate and memorable ceremony. Thanks a ton!

Just got married in NOLA. Absolutely couldn’t have done it without Lorrie. She helped me a long the way, through the entire process. She was flexible as we changed our time slightly. we came from Florida.she helped make it flawless and she is a genuine person. I highly recommend her. If I could give 6 ⭐️ I would!

Laurie was absolutely the very best! She was professional yet compassionate. It was as if she had known us for a long time. Her ability to lead the ceremony and create a beautiful and loving experience was beyond expectations!

I can meet in person (if you're local), skype, e-mail or phone.

I'm a Non-Denominational licensed Ordained Minister. I do perform both religious and non-religious ceremonies. .
