About me, Sarah Oswald
I believe that your wedding ceremony can represent WHO YOU ARE as a couple. I also believe it's an ideal opportunity to weave a web of connection throughout your community. I love collaborating with you to creatively make each of these things possible. Supporting humans in having superb relationships is my favorite thing in the world to do. I am lit up by this work-- from the inside out. You can feel this joy while working with me. My presence, both as a wedding officiant and couples coach, is grounded and loving. I would be honored to work with you!
From the moment we first met Sarah, we knew she was going to be the one to marry us. She was grounded, genuine, and confident. She made planning out the ceremony effortless and allowed us to easily come up with what we wanted to say. Though our wedding was just one of many that Sarah has officiated, my wife and I truly felt like our wedding was the only one that mattered to her due to her dedication and obvious love for what she does.

Sarah led my fiance and me through several sessions of pre-marital coaching and I cannot say enough positive things about the experience. She facilitated difficult conversations with professionalism and sensitivity. Sarah immediately picked up on our dynamic and was able to offer fantastic insight into our relationship almost immediately. We had to do our sessions over video calling due to COVID-19 and felt the experience was equally enriching. No matter the status of your relationship, I am confident Sarah can help you build a stronger bond.

It's always a pleasure when we have the chance to work with this company. We highly recommend!
Sarah Lila offers a great service that more people need to talk about when heading into their new life together. Yes she can marry you for your ceremony but there is so much more that should be looked at before you reach that special day to ensure you're on the best path possible to success in marriage and life.
We do tons of research before committing to a car, house and even a meal these days, so why not ask Sarah Lila for her professional perspective when it comes to your biggest commitment: Love?
What better way to get married then to have someone who really cares and supports your vision for your special day. Lead the Love Life is amazing because Sarah has the energy and the personality that is so loving and grounded. She takes the time to get to know the real you so you day isn't someone you barely know up there talking but someone you feel you have known for a lot longer, a friend.
