Leslie officiated our wedding at the Hampshire House and spoke beautifully! In fact, many of our guests even pulled us aside to tell us how fantastic they thought Leslie did during the ceremony. Recommend!

Grateful and Blessed :)

We had a beautiful elopement ceremony at the Harvard Arboretum, and our officiant brought such warmth and individuality to the moment. She clearly pours her heart into what she does, and her personal style made the experience feel unique and heartfelt. The vows she prepared for us were touching and thoughtful, and we really appreciated the care she took in creating a ceremony that felt intimate and sincere. She also arrived with her own binder and kindly took and sent photos straight away, which gave us wonderful memories to share with family. Despite carrying a lot in her personal life, she showed up with kindness, energy, and genuine intention, and we felt very supported throughout. We’re grateful for the time she spent with us and for helping shape such a meaningful, memorable moment on our day. It’s an experience we’ll treasure, and we appreciate her role in making it special.

Last minute JP!

We got married at the end of September in downtown Boston. Leslie came to our rescue because our officiant's paperwork did not come in for an out of state license in time. Leslie was superb in more ways than one!
She found out about us through a short conversation and wrote a beautiful speech to legally marry us a few short hours before our ceremony.
Leslie was gracious and accommodating in so many ways, most of all she truly wanted to wish us a lifetime of happiness by helping us get married.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
