The Best Ceremony of My Life - My 90 Year old Great Aunt

Laurie did such a fantastic job at the ceremony! There was a level of personalization and detail that we have never encountered before. We had family members come up to us after the ceremony stating they had learned more about our personalities and relationship from Laurie's brief ceremony than they had from knowing us our entire lives. She perfectly hit all the emotional notes from humour to somberness. It was by far the most beautiful and touching ceremony either of us had ever seen.

She is affordable, and was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. We seriously can't overstate how amazing she is.

Best.Day.Ever.

Laurie is an AMAZING wedding officiant. We asked and she delivered. Laurie took the time to get to know us, ask us questions and was able to capture the small, special moments of how we met and infuse them into our wedding ceremony flawlessly. We enjoyed her wit and energy that she brought. Best officiant out there in our books!

Exactly what we asked for!

Laurie was amazing right from first contact to the day of our little ceremony. We didn't want anything fancy, long, or too wordy. We asked for something "short and sweet," and that is exactly what we got. She was very flexible, easy to work with, personable, professional and fun. She has a really good read on people. I would highly recommend her to anyone wishing to tie-the-know :)

Absolutely wonderful

We can’t say enough good things about Laurie. She is flexible, thoughtful, and took the time to explain everything and make sure we knew what to do. She personalized our service, and it was perfect, made our amazing day even better.

Fun and flexible marriage ceremony

We had our wedding ceremony abroad and wanted to do a quick legal ceremony here at home. She offered a great solution and was flexible when we had to change the date due to one of our witnesses not being available.
It was great value, an easy experience and a fun way to “make it legal.”

Highly Recommended!!

I don't even know where to begin with this testimonial....Laurie is absolutely amazing!
She was organized, checked on me and kept everyone in line!
It was important to us that our ceremony reflected how we are as individuals and a couple...funny, sarcastic, witty, light, sassy...she fit in with us perfectly. Our wedding embodied us in every possible way, and that was all because of Laurie. I wouldn't change a thing about it!

Laurie rocks!

We had Laurie officiate our ceremony and so glad we did! She responded to us right away! She was always prompt to answer any and all questions we had and was super helpful when we said we wanted to write our own vows. She shared examples with us to get a good start, which was very much appreciated! We are a light hearted couple who likes to keep things fun and funny while still maintaining the romance and she nailed it! We loved the addition of having us each privately submit our own versions of our love story to her. We got tons of compliments from guests that the ceremony was so fun and unique. Thanks for everything Laurie! We highly recommend you choose her to be your officiant :)

About Me

My husband and I recently moved to Innisfail, Alberta.

We met on E-Harmony 9 years ago. I fell in love with him at about the 3rd date. And I kissed him first. :)

​

Between the two of us, we have three grown children, a Goldendoodle, and a very spoiled MaineCoon.

​

I'm into my fourth year of being a professional wedding officiant. I feel it's the best job in the whole world.

​

I'm also a Funeral celebrant.

A perfect mom (just ask me), a lover of gardening, sewing and pretty much all girlie things.

​And a very proud participant of Choices Seminars
