I'm Rev. Lauri, a Connecticut wedding officiant based in Hamden, serving New Haven and surrounding areas. I write every ceremony from scratch, after a few conversations with you so the words sound like you, not a template. I work with spiritual couples, interfaith couples, same-sex couples, and blended families. Intimate elopements, backyard weddings, barns, castles, all of it. If you're in a hurry, I can help: I've written full ceremonies with just days to spare. You'll see every draft and can revise as much as you need. I also assist with vows, and I can bring in rituals like handfasting, a ring blessing, or a surprise where I share something private each of you said about the other.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Lauri was fantastic to work with and we are so grateful we found her. She was a caring a nurturing presence throughout, was very receptive to our requested changes as we planned the ceremony script, and was clearly motivated by doing what would be right for us. She met with me and my fiance about four times during our wedding planning process to get to know us and modify our ceremony plan/script to what spoke most to us most as a couple. She was knowledgable about a variety of cultural traditions and helped us incorporate the Irish Hand Fasting Blessing into our ceremony, providing us with an everlasting, unique memory and memento (the handfasting chord) of our promises to each other. We received several compliments from our wedding guests about Lauri's ease and professionalism while she officiated our wedding. We highly recommend her! - Tess, May 2025 Bride, Bill Miller's Castle”

“From our first conversation with Jesselica at Moments With Meaning, we knew we had found the right officiant for our ceremony. She made the whole process so easy and got back to us quickly, which meant the world during our busy wedding planning. What really blew us away was how she captured our story through her questions and wove it into our vows—the words just flowed out of her like she'd known us forever.

Why settle for the same clichéd, predictable service everyone else uses? You're unique, and your wedding should be, too. I'll work with you to design the perfect ceremony to match your own individual style and personality.

Awarded Best of Zola
“The comfort and ease that Dave brought to the wedding with his reassuring, “I’ve got this, whatever you want, it’s your wedding” attitude was exactly what an anxious bride needed. We are not a religious couple, nor are we especially romantic, but we still wanted a traditional, classic ceremony. That balance was perfectly achieved because Dave actively listens to his clients and offers a variety of unique options. I cannot overstate how much overthinking and stressing I did about every other aspect of the wedding, but I was so relaxed and confident that the ceremony would be perfect, and I was right. Over a year later my husband and I still talk about how the ceremony was the best part of the night. If you’re looking for an officiant who will come to you with an open mind, no judgement, and genuine care, there is no better person than David Lang.”

Your wedding is more than a series of moments; it’s the story of your love, shared with the people who matter most. From the moment you walk down the aisle to the last dance of the evening, every transition should feel effortless for you and your guests. I offer something unique: one consistent voice guiding your celebration from start to finish. As both your officiant and/or MC, I bring warmth, clarity, and energy to every stage of your wedding.

“We decided to have Janelle be both our MC and our officiant, and we are so happy we made that decision. From the very beginning, she was incredibly collaborative and made my husband and me feel completely at ease. She guided us through the license process, which took a huge weight off our shoulders during an already busy time. On the day of the wedding, she blended in so seamlessly that my family genuinely thought she was part of the family. She was warm, present, and connected and kept the entire evening flowing effortlessly. Having one person serve as the backbone of the celebration made everything feel calm, something we couldn’t have appreciated more! Janelle brought heart and professionalism.

The process with Matt was professional and organized, while also being incredibly enjoyable. He met with us well in advance to talk about what we wanted and got to know us as a couple. He then showed us a draft and did a great job of incorporating the small amount of feedback we had. It’s been several years since our wedding, yet family and friends still regularly (and unprompted) bring up our ceremony, saying that it was one of the best they’ve ever been to.

“We cannot recommend Miriam highly enough! She was kind and caring, professional, and extremely good at her job, for a very decent price. She helped our wedding go so smoothly and we are so incredibly grateful she was part of our special day! Our photographer heard we were looking for an officiant for our wedding, and passed along Miriam’s information. From the moment we connected with her, we felt her warm and friendly energy and felt totally at ease about planning our wedding ceremony! Before we met Miriam, we were not really sure what we wanted our wedding to be, but we did know we wanted it to be written by us, and as a queer couple we did not want a “traditional” wedding. It started off feeling overwhelming with so many details to plan overall, but as soon as we met with Miriam, we felt completely at ease and even excited about the process! We threw out some ideas that wove in our New Age/paganistic spiritual beliefs, and Miriam reached out to her pagan priestess friend and did a deep dive researching for our ceremony and coming back to us with so many wonderful ideas. She thoughtfully and creatively wove all the important elements we hoped for into a beautiful ceremony, down to every detail. She was open to our ideas, and supportive through every step of the way, right up until we were there in the moment getting married, and even after the ceremony. She helped make our wedding so special, and we got so many compliments on how “us” our ceremony was and what a great job Miriam did. 100/10, would recommend, do yourself a favor and take this as your sign to book with her!”

“Sam was incredibly thoughtful and extra communicative! It never felt rushed working with her. Rather, she took her time to get to know my partner and I personally, the nuances of our love story, and helped us curate a version of our dream ceremony that was absolutely beautiful. Her suggestions really highlighted her attention to detail and how much she really enjoys her job bringing together people in love. I wouldn’t have wanted any other officiant!! Highly recommend!”
