Joyful Love Celebrations for Sentimental, Fun-Loving & Beautifully Non-Traditional Folks
“Before working with Lauren, we felt excited to celebrate our day of love. After working with Lauren, we realized how much more there was to celebrate.”
Hi, I'm Lauren! (they/them)
Rooted in Northern California, happy to travel (passport ready!)
I'm a Queer Love Celebrant with nearly 20 years of experience creating and officiating Joyful Love Celebrations for sentimental, fun-loving and beautifully non-traditional folks. I've helped hundreds of couples go from performing, proving and people-pleasing to feeling deeply connected, seen and celebrated for exactly who they are.
For a lot of people, especially queer and beautifully non-traditional folks, a wedding ceremony is the first time the world has been asked to gather, witness, and celebrate the full truth of who you are. Every beautiful, luminous part of you, loved out loud, on your own terms.
When I get to know you (really know you) - your story, your humor, your tenderness, the specific and delightful way you two move through the world together - something extraordinary becomes possible.
A celebration that is fully, completely, cosmically yours.
“Lauren’s process takes you out of the logistics of planning a wedding and back into feeling the love — the whole reason you’re even getting married. Lauren made us feel seen, loved, and cared for as if we had been friends for years. The ceremony perfectly captured our love story, and every guest said it was their favorite part of the day.”
