People ask Lori why she became a wedding officiant. Here’s the story, short and sweet. She had friends that were looking for a Rabbi to perform a marriage ceremony for them and could not find one because they were a same-sex couple. They asked if she would become ordained because she knew the Jewish rituals and believes that love is love. That was Lori's first ceremony in 2011.
"As a wedding officiant, I create and perform joyful, meaningful, and personalized non-denominational wedding ceremonies for ALL couples. I am also a romantic at heart and I love love!!" ~ Lori

The approach we use to create your wedding ceremony, whether it be for a micro-wedding, elopement, or a large wedding, is very different from other wedding officiants. You and your fiancé are encouraged to be part of the creative process from start to finish. This allows for the creation of a ceremony that truly reflects who you are as a couple. Initial consultations are always free.
Lori has always been a creative soul and a free spirit. Once she met her husband, Michael, she picked up a camera and was hooked. She has been a professional photographer & Co-Owner of ShadowCatcher Photography, LLC ever since.
Because she loved photographing weddings, she always wanted to become more involved in the wedding ceremony itself. She wanted to incorporate more of what she loves...writing. That's when she decided that it was time to become a wedding officiant so that she could write beautiful ceremonies for other couples.
Lori originally became ordained in 2011 with the Universal Life Church Ministry and continued her education to become an ordained "Rabbi" in June 2013 with the American Marriage Ministries. She is also a Certificated Wedding Officiant through the Wedding Merchant Business Academy and a legal assistant at Lehman Law, PC. She always tells her couples that "I am a one-stop-shop...Officiant, Photographer, Hair & Makeup Squad & much more!!!"
