I grew up in a small town outside of Athens, GA and graduated from the University of Georgia (GO DAWGS) in 1995 with a Bachelor of Music degree concentrating in piano and voice. I've been married since 2006 to my wife, Ellen and we have three beautiful children: Kate, Meredith, and Owen.

We were so happy to have Lem LeRoy officiate our wedding ceremony. From the moment we first contacted him, he got back to us quickly and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. Lem took the time to learn how to pronounce our family members' names correctly, which our guests really appreciated and noticed. He showed up right on time and delivered the ceremony exactly as we had planned it. His knowledge and friendly personality made everyone feel comfortable, and he helped set the perfect tone for our celebration. We would absolutely recommend Lem to any couple looking for an officiant who is reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely cares about making their day special.

When we first met Erica from Married By 2 Letters, we knew we had found our officiant. She brought such a wonderful spirit to our wedding planning process that we couldn't imagine working with anyone else. What really set her apart was how thorough she was—she made calls to help us secure our venue, arranged our reception food, and even found me a makeup artist at the last minute when we were in a bind. Erica went way beyond what we expected an officiant to do, connecting us with vendors and making sure every detail came together. Her support meant more to us than money could buy. We highly recommend Erica and Married By 2 Letters to any couple looking for an officiant who truly cares about making your day special.
