About

Congratulations on your engagement, and thank you for considering me to participate in your special day!

My name is Laura, and I am an inclusive, licensed marriage officiant and life celebrant registered in the province of Ontario. I primarily serve South Georgian Bay, Simcoe County and York Region. However, if requested, I am happy to travel outside these districts for ceremonies.​

I love, love and recognize and respect all religions and spiritual paths. It is a privilege to perform weddings and life ceremonies for everyone regardless of faith, culture, gender, or sexual orientation. After all, love is love!​

In addition to being a licensed wedding officiant and life celebrant, I hold a full-time leadership position within the charitable and non-profit sector.

Passion has guided my life and allowed me to spend the better part of seven years travelling the world, being fortunate to spend long periods living and working in South-East Asia and Africa. I have always been drawn to different cultures and traditions and consider myself a lifelong learner.

From an educational standpoint, I hold an Honours bachelor's degree (distinction) and a master's degree from Carleton University's School of Public Policy and Administration.​

The Universal Love Project exists to facilitate ceremonies rooted in love. I strongly believe love is the universal force and the only way to reconciliation, unity, and peace. ​

Being inclusive in my practice is key, and I aim to ensure that every ceremony is geared toward the request of my clients while also ensuring it's a safe space, with each ceremony treated with love and care.

In my spare time, you can find me travelling, in a hammock with a good book, in deep conversations with friends, or spending quality time with my life partner and our red toy poodle, Chlo

Exceptional ceremonies!

Laura crafted the most beautiful ceremony for our wedding. She was so engaged in hearing about our love story and meaningfully brought it to life through words to share with our loved ones. I'm so glad we worked with Laura, she made it easy every step of the way. She brought love and light into each interaction, honoured and celebrated our union on our wedding day. Thank you!
