Leora was the first person we called about being our officiant, and we are so glad we did! She did a wonderful job and we couldn't have picked anyone better. She was very responsive, helpful, professional but warm and enthusiastic, had great suggestions when we wanted them, but also provided ample room for us to construct the ceremony we wanted. She could charge 3 times what she does and it would still be a great value! Plus, she proved that she can handle whatever your wedding may throw at her-- including, in our case, a dog licking her leg during the ceremony! I'd recommend Leora's officiating services to friends, relatives, or perfect strangers.

Leora is so lovely!!

We really enjoyed having Leora as our officiant. We wanted someone who we felt was exceptional at public speaking, and through watching a few of her videos, we felt like she embodied what we were looking for. Leora is very responsive to emails. We had an initial phone call with Leora, then a few months later she sent us a draft that we went over and made revisions/comments. About 2 months before the wedding we met in person to go over wedding details and the final draft. On our wedding day, we were so happy with our ceremony and our guests complimented Leora’s officiating.

Highly recommend Leora -- she is amazing!

Words can't express how thankful we are that Leora officiated our wedding. From the moment we met Leora, she had a calming presence about her and you could tell she truly cared about getting to know us. The preparation for the ceremony was stress free and with Leora's guidance, we put together the ceremony we envisioned. Leora made that come to life on the day of and it was absolutely perfect. Our friends and family are still talking about it!
