The best decision we made was hiring Lonnie!

Lonnie was a blessing in so many ways! We can not say enough great things about him and all that he did for us. We had multiple zoom meetings to finalize every part of the ceremony, we were given complete control over changes and tweaks and we were also able to add in special touches that made it personal. Lonnie got to know us. He created a story of our love timeline and made it into quite the celebration. Lonnie was not only on time but early to help with final touches. We did not have an elaborate ceremony but Lonnie truly took charge. Not only did he submit our license for us, we left that day with a complete care package including our script. Did we mention he was affordable? Nothing about Lonnie was cheap, but his prices were perfect for our low budget that's for sure! Very highly recommended. I honestly can't recommend him enough. There is so much you don't think about. Luckily he has you covered!

The Best of the Best!

We had the most fantastic experience with Lonnie! We wanted someone who has a true passion for love and weddings to officiate our special moment, and he delivered in every way. From our first meeting with Lonnie, we knew he was the one! He made our ceremony so special and memorable, all of our guests adored him. His attention, knowledge, and passion for everything wedding is so evident, both when we met with him and at our wedding. He was the perfect fit for our intimate ceremony. Lonnie, thank you for being such a special part of our day!

We're Lucky to Have Had Lonnie Officiate Our Wedding

When our original plan for a family member to officiate our wedding fell through a month before the wedding, we were scrambling to find someone to marry us. So we were very lucky to have found Lonnie, who brought so much joy to our wedding day. He made the process of planning the ceremony easy, helping us keep organized and on-track with writing our vows, planning out the ceremony run-of-show, and more. His love of weddings and expertise shone through during our ceremony - he curated a lovely script that managed to reflect the love my bride and I share. He's great on the mic too - our guests loved him. Finally, we truly appreciate how we were able to just hand him our marriage license and he just took care of the rest. Highly recommend Lonnie - you'll be glad you had him too!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
