    Lori is Amazing!

    I had the chance to watch Lori & Memories 2 Last A Lifetime in action at multiple events and she is the epitome of what a Wedding officiant should be. She is gifted with the ability to make both large and intimate crowds feel comfortable and at home with her welcoming and light hearted demeanor. I’ve watched her help ease the nervousness and tension of anxious couples with her warm smile and engaging energy. Look no further for a wedding officiant that will treat your wedding as if it was her own!

    Absolutely Amy

    Lori is simply the best. She made my ceremony such a wonderful and beautiful experience and I received so many compliments. She is very professional, she kept in contact leading up to the wedding and was able to share great ideas. I can’t thank her enough and I HIGHLY recommend her.

    Wedding officiant

    Lori was a phenomenal officiant. Her script was BEAUTIFUL, she was confident, and she really helped my husband and I feel comfortable. She had great ideas and walked us through everything at the rehearsal so everything went perfectly at the ceremony. I would absolutely hire her again!

    She was so kind and thoughtful and easy to work with.

    Our wedding planner found Lori and said she came highly recommended so we had high expectations and she exceeded them. From the kind way she always checked on how we were doing to the personal note she wrote us about her own marriage/ dating experiences she was phenomenal. Cannot recommend her more and her fee was in my opinion extremely low for the quality of service she provided throughout the whole process.

    Memories to Last a Lifetime's reply:

    This couple was such a pleasure to work with. I’ve worked hard over the last year creating a number of tips & info mailed periodically to help answer questions & ease their minds with the task of planning & imaging how that day will go smoothly. Their wedding with all the bride’s details was magical.

    Small, intimate, and simple; but the most perfect day we will never forget!

    Lori was very helpful with providing several different options for the service. She was also very good at keeping our minds at ease and making it the least stressful and perfect day. We had several kids involved in the service and she was so patient and understanding (you know how kids can get).
    Our wedding ended up being exactly what we wanted. Small, intimate, and simple

    10000/10!!!

    Lori was an absolute GODSEND!! I cannot recommend her enough! Before, during, and after the wedding, she went above and beyond to make sure we had all the love, support and professionalism on our wedding day! She helped soothe my anxiety about certain aspects of the wedding kept things moving forward and organized the day before AND the day of the wedding! Not only that but we also had issues with our marriage license and our county clerks office that she helped us figure out without a second thought! If you are looking for an officiant that will put your needs and wants first to ensure you have the most stress free day, look no further!!

    Brides like Kianna are exactly why I work so hard and give part of my heart. As I often say, ‘the service is the reason for the celebration.’

    Thank you for an amazing experience, Lori!

    Lori was the perfect pick for our special day! Her experience and passion for officiating was so comforting as we planned the ceremony and what we envisioned for wedding day. She was thorough and detailed in her own preparation and that was evident in our calls leading into the week of our rehearsal and ceremony. Lori did a great job in helping us craft a ceremony timeline that seamlessly integrated our ideas and wishes. We would highly recommend Lori for wedding officiating - she will be a part of your busy day you can count on!

    Experienced and truly cares for the Bride and Groom!

    During our first conversation on the phone with Lori, I knew she was my officiant. She was so warm and welcoming and brought a sort of confident and reassuring energy to our conversation which made me feel at ease. She had amazing suggestions but wasn't pushy at all. She was a great communicator via email and would respond fairly quickly. I don't have a single bad thing to say about Lori because she was so perfect. Thank you so much for making our day special!

    Memories to Last a Lifetime's reply:

    I care for my brides. This. The reviews she and many others take the time to write mean so very much. This is why I take care of them. My best wishes to you two for an incredible life!

    Highly Recommend Memories to Last a Lifetime

    Lori with Memories to Last a Lifetime was the perfect officiant for our wedding! Lori was prompt, communicated well, and made us feel so comfortable. She made the process so easy for us and really cared about what we wanted for our special day. We cannot recommend Lori enough. Thank you for being a part of our big day!

    Couldn’t have asked for better

    Lori was absolutely amazing! She was so easy to get along with, kind, and had incredible scripts while still letting us customize our vows to fit us. I can’t imagine anyone better as an officiant. Highly recommend!

    Memories to Last a Lifetime's reply:

    Magic happens as intended — you two are such great people! The special ones take time to share how good it was. That’s so important to me but also for others to choose me. Thank you so much.

    May 14th was a huge success

    Lori @ Memories to Last a Lifetime, was very easy to work with and was a huge help in the success of our rehearsal and on the Day of ceramony. I definitely didn't expect how much last minute stress comes along with planning such and event, however Lori was there keeping the peace and working with all involved on making our ceremony beautiful. She brings a boatload of knowledge over building a beautiful ceremony and a constant reminder the love is in the air, I was greatful to have book with her :).

    Memories to Last a Lifetime's reply:

    I have been blessed with working with wonderful couples. They certainly were. After hundreds and hundreds of weddings, you can still feel the magic. Thank you.

    Working with Lori was great!

    Lori worked with my husband and I to put together an elopement in one week! For all the ways we went about this unconventionally, Lori put in care and effort to make our short & sweet ceremony very special and meaningful.

    Lively Lori!

    From the moment we connected with Lori, we felt confident about our choice to have her officiate our wedding. She was very friendly, calmed our nerves, and was extremely patient as we figured out exactly what vows to use in our ceremony. She gave us suggestions, thoughtfully critiqued some of the verbiage, and sent pleasant almost weekly emails leading up to the big day! She greeted us with a welcoming smile at the rehearsal and we’re not sure if she stopped smiling as she greeted us the day of the wedding the same way. She left us with a handkerchief that came in handy as the tears started flowing. Your officiant is integral part of your wedding and we couldn’t imagine anyone else marrying us!

    Best wedding ever

    Lori was absolutely wonderful during this process. She was sure to have a ceremony that was based on us, and she really made it an extra special day. She also was so helpful with doing a quick run through before the ceremony so we all felt comfortable with what we were doing. Recommend her for anyone wanting a spectacular wedding ceremony/day!

    Lori is amazing!

    My fiancé and I reached out to Lori to perform a justice of the peace style wedding ceremony. This ceremony would be for legal purposes only because we are having a family wedding later this year that is very important to us.

    Lori truly cared that our legal ceremony would be memorable and special for us also. She recommended a beautiful location nearby. She choreographed the ceremony so that my fiancé and I began at separate locations and walked towards each other, meeting in the middle and joining hands, before we turned to walk together towards her for the ceremony. When we joined Lori, she gave a personal and heartfelt oratory that made the ceremony even more beautiful.

    After the ceremony Lori took a number of photos of us around the grounds to commemorate our wedding and provided a beautiful embroidered handkerchief to catch my happy tears. We are so thankful to have these mementos to commemorate our marriage.

    We could not have asked for a more beautiful and perfect ceremony.

    It is abundantly clear that Lori loves what she does and puts her heart and soul into it.

    We highly recommend Lori and her gift for making even simple ceremonies memorable. Lori truly gave us memories to last a lifetime. Thank you so much, Lori, we will never forget our special day.

    Sincerely,
    Jennifer and Aaron

    Memories to Last a Lifetime's reply:

    Oh my. I told others about you two. Seventeen years together and you were just going to elope. Friends & family put together a reception on that beautiful day to be outside. We chatted before the service about finding your pretty dress. Your husband probably wanted something more quiet but he actually was the hero of the day getting the generator going. Power was out due to an accident down the road but it all came together beautifully. Thank you for choosing me to be a part of it!

    10/10 would recommend

    We cannot thank Lori enough. From day one she schedule a phone call and talked through all of our options. Throughout the months before our wedding she was very encouraging and was that voice of reason to stay calm and assured us it will all be okay! We loved our personalized ceremony and all went so very smooth. We’ve received numerous compliments on her service and her hospitality with our guests. I will definitely be referring my friends and family to Lori in the future!

    Memories to Last a Lifetime's reply:

    This couple was so sweet to work with and are so in love! We were so lucky to have beautiful weather. Their guests were leaning in to hear every word and several were crying. I am certainly blessed to provide beautiful, meaningful services for my couples.

    It was a pleasure working with Lori!

    Lori officiated our wedding in June 2021. She is kind and experienced. Lori was always quick to respond to our questions or concerns and helped us come up with a wonderful ceremony script. We wanted our ceremony to be short yet sentimental and we received several compliments. Lori was also great about making sure we had everything organized and ready to go in terms of marriage license and aspects of the ceremony we had not thought about. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of an officiant.

    Memories to Last a Lifetime's reply:

    Thank you for taking time to share some love here. You two are a gorgeous couple and love each other so much. I enjoyed your family & friends. They sat on the edge of their seats to hear every word. It was my pleasure to help make your day special!
