About Lauren

Hi, my name is Lauren and I officiate weddings for sentimental, spontaneous couples who are excited to explore their love! I’m also reinventing the concept of “Wedding Officiant.” After attending many traditional wedding ceremonies, I began to notice that couples were missing a huge emotional opportunity to create a meaningful, engaging wedding ceremony that truly celebrated the essence of who they are. You see, I believe that getting married isn’t just about going through the motions; it’s an incredibly rich and dynamic emotional experience that has the power to bring people closer together. And because I couldn’t find anyone else doing just that, I decided to become the Wedding Officiant who would fill that gap!

Here’s a little more about me: I believe that all work days should include a mandatory 20 minute dance party and that everyone should fall in love with someone of the same gender at least once in their lives. I’ve been known to stop for three scoops of chocolate ice cream on my way home from the gym, and sometimes I tell my wife I’m working when really I’m at home watching TV in my pajamas. Last but not least, I believe we should all say something GREAT about our partners every night before bed - especially when we don’t want to!

"We eloped in Yosemite, and we wanted our ceremony to be special and intimate. Lauren surpassed our expectations. Throughout the process, what really stood out to us is that she took the time to get to know us, and understand what we wanted from our wedding day. We had a number of video calls (we're from Amsterdam) over the course of year prior to our wedding, where we went through a set of discovery questions which Lauren had set out - these were designed for her to get to know us, but it also had the additional benefit for us that it allowed us to take the time to consider our relationship and really find out what we wanted from our wedding day. Our discussions with her through the discovery process (and after!) have positively impacted our relationship, but also our relationships with our families. Lauren is incredibly insightful, and gave us some really beautiful advice, which will continue to make a difference in our lives, as we go forward in our marriage.”

“Lauren helped us to become stronger in our relationship and opened the discussion for what marriage means to the both of us. She wrote a custom ceremony around our values and relationship that contained many unique traditions and radiated love. She was there for anything we needed; vow writing, advice and ideas. On the day of or wedding, she arrived early and exceeded our expectations assisting with things beyond her job description. There is absolutely not enough good things we could say about Lauren, and if you’re looking for an officiant, you could not make a better choice.”

"Lauren is more than a wedding officiant. Her ceremonies and wedding weekend rituals are the emotional glue that brings everyone together, including friends and family who are only meeting for the first time. If you are choosing where to allocate your precious wedding budget, make sure you choose Lauren over something no one will ever remember like fancy hors d'oeuvres. I highly recommend Lauren as a wedding officiant and wedding weekend coach for couples. Anyone can marry you, but not just anyone can achieve the amazing experience you'll have with Lauren."
