Officiant so good your guests will be convinced he's a close friend!

Lem did a great job with our ceremony. We met a few times beforehand via phone calls so he could get to know us better and get an idea of what we were looking for. He prepared a perfect custom ceremony for us. He kept the ceremony lighthearted and personable. A few of our guests even asked us how we knew him afterwards because of how personal he was in how he delivered the ceremony, they were shocked when we said we found him online and didn't know him personally prior. He arrived to the ceremony with ample time as well. He was also very quick to jump aside for the kiss so he wasn't in our photo for that, this was something I didn't even think about so I appreciated it was something he thought of. He has got the whole thing down from start to finish! Highly recommend!

Couldn’t have asked for a better officiant! ❤️

Lem was an absolute delight and an amazing part of our special day! He went above and beyond for us, and our entire family loved how he took the time to highlight the little things that made our ceremony so special. His humor brought such a fun and personal touch, and we especially appreciated how he acknowledged and recognized that so many of our family members had traveled a long way to celebrate with us. It was those little details that made the experience feel so personal and meaningful.
He was even kind enough to stay after the ceremony to pray over our meal, which meant so much to us and our families. His kindness, thoughtfulness, and genuine care did not go unnoticed. We cannot recommend Lem enough! He was truly one of the best parts of our wedding day, and we are so grateful we had him be a part of it!

August 1, 2026 Wedding Review!

Lem did a wonderful job officiating our wedding ceremony. He was incredibly kind, communicative, and reliable throughout the entire process. The ceremony was the most important part of our wedding day to us, and Lem did not disappoint. The message he shared during the ceremony was especially meaningful to us, and I still find myself reflecting on the advice he gave.

He incorporated little requests of ours that made our ceremony unique to us, including our rock, paper, scissors game before exchanging vows! He arrived early, kept us informed, ensured our marriage license was signed before the ceremony, and mailed in a timely manner. He was quick on his feet when a bee decided to swarm my dress during the ceremony!

The only thing I would change is he introduced us as my husband’s last name instead of my requested intro, as I am not changing my name. But, I can deal with that with how meaningful the rest of our ceremony was!

Overall, Lem was easily one of my favorite vendors and most dependable people we worked with on our wedding day. His prices are fair considering his quality of service and the wedding market. He is worth every penny!

Doyle Wedding

Lem officiated our wedding on 4/18/2026 and was perfect. Prior to the wedding, he met up with us to discuss how we wanted the ceremony to go, and to answer any questions we had about the overall process.
He abided by everything we requested, made us comfortable, and was professional all the way through.
Go with Lem, you won't be disappointed.

Lem is amazing!

Lem was very professional and personable throughout the whole planning process and was just amazing on our wedding day. He listened to all of our wishes for our wedding and made them all come to life. Even though we just met, somehow it felt like we had known him forever. If you are debating between what officiant to choose, let this be your sign to look no further and go ahead and grab Lem!!

Perfectly Personal and Intentional

We worked with Lem LeRoy for a private ceremony prior to our wedding day, as we had chosen to have a close friend officiate our main ceremony. From the beginning, Lem was incredibly thoughtful, respectful of our vision, and made the entire process feel personal and meaningful despite it being a more intimate, behind-the-scenes part of our wedding experience. He took the time to understand our story and crafted a ceremony that felt intentional, grounded, and true to who we are as a couple. Even without the larger wedding-day setting, he created a moment that felt significant and memorable. His calm presence and professionalism made it easy for us to be fully present, and we’re very grateful for the care he brought to such an important part of our journey.”

The Best Officiant

We cannot say enough great things about our officiant, Lem. From start to finish, he was incredibly hands-on and truly invested in making our ceremony meaningful and stress-free. He stayed completely aligned with our Christian beliefs, which meant so much to us, and delivered a ceremony that felt genuine, intentional, and personal.

On top of that, Lem went above and beyond by handling and delivering our marriage license, which took a huge weight off our shoulders and allowed us to fully enjoy our day without added stress. Overall, he was wonderful to work with—professional, thoughtful, and supportive every step of the way. We could not recommend him enough!

Great officiant

Lem officiated our elopement ceremony and did a beautiful job. We were happy with how the ceremony felt personal and meaningful. Lem communicated with us several times leading up to the ceremony and provided us with a draft of the script so we could make changes or add additional elements. He was professional and very easy to work with. Definitely recommend Lem’s services!
