Have Lover, Will Travel is a wedding officiant and honeymoon planning business based in Brooklyn, New York. Owner Liz Norment believes that the ceremony is the only conversation on your wedding day that you can control. As a wedding officiant and passionate storyteller, she's had the honor of officiating over 200 weddings since starting her company four years ago.

Her words will paint a story of the two of you individually, including your respective family histories, and now the life you’re building together. Liz chooses her words wisely, sharply, passionately, intentionally, and joyfully. Let her choose some for you.

Founder Liz Norment and the HLWT team offer a number of essential wedding services. She provides a full-service officiant package, aimed at wedding parties of 50 guests and more, and a "mini-mony" package, for more intimate events. The Have Lover, Will Travel team can also officiate elopements, vow renewals, and destination weddings.

As an IATA-certified travel advisor, Liz creates custom honeymoons that reflect your adventurous love story. The process starts by getting to know who you are as travelers, exploring destinations, and finally putting the pieces together that allow you to explore the world while discovering more about each other

Amazing, personal ceremony!

We had the pleasure of working with Liz as the officiant for our wedding at the Morris Museum in October of 2023. Liz was professional and great to work with from the first interaction. She was clear about what we needed to do to keep the process moving forward, and provided helpful tips and information along the way. Liz did a great job gathering facts and information from both of us about our relationship and our story to make the ceremony personalized and meaningful. We were amazed at how well from the very first draft the ceremony told our story. The editing process was quick and easy - and this was one of the most stress free parts of planning our wedding. Liz even helped us with the logistics of getting our Marriage license. The final product was an excellent ceremony that had all of our guests raving - with multiple people assuming that Liz had known us and our story for years. Guests appreciated how the story of our relationship was told - especially more distant family members who weren’t 100% familiar with the story of our relationship. Overall - Liz was amazing to work with and we would highly recommend her for any wedding.

Thank you Liz!!!

We adore Liz! I am a wedding planner and I have seen Liz produce personal ceremonies for so many of my clients. When it was time for me to get married she was the only person I wanted to marry us. Every single client she works with she gives a tailored and unique experience to. She is a delight to work with but just a genuine good person...you want her there for the most important moment in your life! Thank you Liz xx

Wonderful Experience

Liz made numerous Zoom calls with us and made several changes to meet our needs for our ceremony. She has such a genuine and kind personality that shows through her fantastic writing skills. She told our story with passion and tenacity and our guests enjoyed it. She also helped write our vows eloquently with keeping our own personal touches.

Outstanding

Liz was an absolute professional in the most endearing way. She made sure that we gave her enough information about our relationship without it feeling like too much work at all.

In all honesty, when I think about all of the weddings that I’ve been to she was the best officiant that I’ve had the pleasure of witnessing. Her timing, delivery, and compassion came through in spades.

After the wedding our parents even told us that they thought she was one of our close friends! That’s how good Liz is, highly recommend.

Amazingly intimate!!

Liz was an dream to work with, from start to finish! In fact, it was more like talking to a friend (even though we just met her). She knew exactly how to unlock the details of our relationship and write a beautiful and intimate story for our ceremony. I never imagined we could have something so personalized. 12/10!! Highly recommend

Incredible to work with - Highly recommend!

Liz was absolutely incredible to work with! From our first introduction call to the day of the ceremony, she put us completely at ease and offered her assistance whenever possible. She clearly understood our story and translated it into a beautiful ceremony. As our wedding took place during Covid, we had a zoom video as part of our day and her team helped figure out technical difficulties so it would not make me worry, which was so appreciated! I highly recommend her services - our day would not have been the same without her!

The Best Wedding Officiant!!

We had the amazing opportunity to have Liz as our officiant for our intimate ceremony. We found Liz through social media and fell in love. From the very beginning, we knew we were in great hands. Liz has truly connected with us at every meeting. She makes sure to truly get to know us both individually and then as a union. We are not kidding when we say that Liz’s writing is a true work of art. She ensures that her words resonate with you and your partner, and also sets the scene for where your ceremony will take place. From the first draft, my husband and I were in AWE. It was beyond beautifully written.

Every ceremony is truly unique and special. We wanted to make sure our ceremony was truly written for us. It’s truly rare for someone to truly capture your love and put it into words. Words that truly speaks our love. And she absolutely delivered just that. She truly made us fall in love with each other all over again. We can’t recommend her enough. Liz is beyond thoughtful, caring, compassionate, and extremely hardworking. Her attention to detail is truly unmatched. Having her as your officiant will be the best experience you will ever have. We already can’t wait to have her back for our vow renewal.

Thank you so much Liz for being you. We have so much love for you.

HLWT is a marvel

I've been to a lot of weddings and my mother is an officiant, so I like to think I have some discretion.

My wife and I had a very stressful marriage process. We planned it in a week, during the pandemic, and it was too ambitious. We found HLWT just days before the wedding and hired them to officiate. We met with the director over zoom and suddenly, everything was okay. Liz took all the weight off our shoulders and managed to reassure us, focus our ideas, strategize, and tease out our love story, all at once.  We were truly freaking out and Liz was a rock. We literally sent her our vows the morning of the wedding and she rolled with it.
(but don't do that.)

The ceremony Liz crafted for us was elegant, magical, and heartbreakingly beautiful. She captured our love and values so perfectly, it felt like we had hired a mind reader. No joke - in the middle of my own wedding I turned to her and shouted "GOD YOU'RE GOOD!" During the reception, some of our guests told me they were glad I did because they were thinking the same thing.

Liz brings to her work the sharpness of an event planner, the intuition of an artist, and the warmth of a friend. Her preparation is rigorous. She carefully collects the gems of the relationship and unveils them throughout the ceremony in a way that makes you discover them all over again.

I urgently recommend this business.

Officiant & Wedding Planner

We had the most incredible experience working with Liz for our wedding. Liz, who not only officiated our ceremony but also took on the role of wedding planner, carefully selecting only 5 clients a year to work with. My husband and I were fortunate enough to be chosen by her, and it was an absolute honor.

Working with Liz was a dream come true for us. Her unmatched professionalism, genuine care, empathy, and warmth set her apart from any other vendor we've encountered. Liz wasn't just a service provider; she became an integral part of our closest circle.

Our special day was made even more magical, stress-free, and stunning because of Liz's involvement. If we were to relive our wedding day ten more times in various enchanting destinations like Paris, Venice, London, Barcelona, Rio de Janeiro, and beyond, Liz would unquestionably be our preferred choice each time.

I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Liz for orchestrating everything seamlessly and turning our wedding into a truly unforgettable event. Thank you for making all of this possible.

We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
