Couldn't have asked for a better officiant!

Miss Candace was our officiant and she was wonderful! Everything was ran smoothly. Guests kept telling me how lovely she was during the ceremony, the way she spoke and really made all the words meaningful. I also loved all of the customizable options to tailor the ceremony exactly how you want!

Lorrie was amazing

Lorrie was amazing. She kept in touch with us as we planned our destination wedding in New Orleans . We had a crazy last minute thing . The venue we were using for our ceremony was closed (Jackson Sq) and we weren’t notified . She calmly helped my hubby move everyone to another location and it all worked out .

Perfect and made for us

Lorrie was amazing every step of the way. From the start of messaging in Wedding Wire, she immediately curated the elopement process for us as easy as 1-2-3. Very flexible on dates and she’s wonderful to help us make the event made for us. When we met her, she have us options at the park and once we decided on a spot, she made the ceremony and us feel so treasured, honored and that everything was made for us. She also was superb at getting witnesses and the paperwork. Easy breezy. I’m so glad we eloped and never would have expected our wedding day to be the best and LEAST stressful day of our lives. I highly recommend her - we feel so grateful that Lorrie was part of our day. Thank you!

She was very attentive and patient with all my questions due to the fact that this was my first time getting married. Sounds like a very genuine person with great energy! Would definitely recommend them hands down!

City Park, New Orleans Elopement

Lorrie was our wedding officiant for our City Park, New Orleans elopement on 10/25/2020 and she was excellent!! I was coming from out of state so I was working with her via email and the checklist she provided made it very easy! Communication was great. She made our ceremony feel special as she meant every word she spoke to us. I'm sooo happy we chose her as our officiant and would highly recommend her services to any future bride! Thank you Lorrie!

Lorrie is the best!

I cannot express how happy I am that we chose Lorrie to officiate our wedding, she helped us craft an extremely personal and meaningful ceremony for the both of us. She helped us keep it together at the altar too! I would absolutely recommend working with her, especially for a handfasting ceremony! She put up with us through figuring out the 'tying of the knot' while being extremely professional and wonderful the entire time. Thank you so much Lorrie, from both of us for making our ceremony as beautiful as possible.

Newlyweds 2020

Happy married and I’m excited beyond words can say! Thank you so much Minister Lorrie Werden. My husband and I are so thankful that you were available during these trying times as COVID-19 is going on. We were looking for the impossible to be able to tie the knot and I downloaded the wedding wire app on my phone to give it a shot and it’s been the best choice I could have ever made. Thank you Thank you

Highly recommend!

Lorrie previously officiated my sister's wedding so we got in touch with her to officiate ours. She was very easy to work with, responded fast, and was flexible when we had to change the time of the wedding due to renovations at our venue. The morning of our wedding, she even sent me a very sweet text and told me to just enjoy the moment as it flies by, and boy did it! And as with every wedding, something's gonna go wrong. Our limo was late and we also had a close family member pass early that same morning. Lorrie was a champ through it all and helped us both, let us know if we get too emotional or need a second to compose ourselves just look at her. I'm very glad she was our officiant and she even stayed for the reception to catch up with my sister and her husband. I highly recommend her as an officiant, trust me you'll have no regrets!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
