Rev. Lauri Ingram

  • Serves Orange, CT

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.

“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”

“Jesselica was the absolute best officiant we could have asked for to help us begin our new chapter as husband and wife. From the very beginning, she was incredibly communicative, organized, and attentive to every detail, making the entire process feel seamless and stress-free. She took the time to get to know us, making us feel completely comfortable and confident every step of the way. Our ceremony was everything we hoped it would, personal, heartfelt, and beautifully delivered. So many of our family members and guests came up to us afterward to tell us how much they loved the ceremony and specifically complimented Jesselica, saying she did an amazing job. That meant so much to us because creating a meaningful ceremony was one of our biggest priorities. Jesselica is the perfect balance of professional and personable, and her warmth and genuine care truly shine through in everything she does. We are so grateful she was such an important part of our wedding day and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional wedding officiant. Thank you, Jesselica, for helping make our day so unforgettable!”

Clergy for modern couples who want a ceremony that feels personal, meaningful, and emotionally unforgettable. As an ordained interfaith minister, holistic somatic practitioner, I bring a unique blend of ceremony, emotional presence, spiritual inclusivity, and calming support to your wedding day. I serve couples who may not want a traditional religious ceremony, but still want the moment to feel sacred, intentional, warm and deeply connected. I create ceremonies that honor your love story, your values, your energy, and the emotional experience you want to share with your guests. My approach is modern, inclusive, heartfelt, and grounded.

“We chose Rev. Julie from Faithfully Driven to officiate our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made. We both agree that the ceremony was the best part of our wedding day. From our first conversation, she was easy to talk to and made us feel comfortable sharing what mattered most to us. She offered counseling sessions before the ceremony and we highly recommend these! We felt grounded and connected after each session - it was a great reminder that our marriage is more important than our wedding. Because of these sessions, we felt she was able to create a truly personalized service that felt genuine and meaningful. On our wedding day, Rev. Julie was professional and poised, and her words perfectly captured our relationship and what we wanted to celebrate. Her dedication to understanding us made our ceremony feel special and authentic. We highly recommend Faithfully Driven to any couple looking for an officiant who cares about creating a real connection with their couples!”

It would be my pleasure to share your special day and create a service that is unique to you.

Debra also incorporated her own ideas and professional opinion to make sure we got a wide range of photos, from walking down the aisle... to candid "silly" photos that captured everyone's personalities....to the last moments of the night. Debra was always responsive to calls and emails, and very professional. The quality of her work is exceptional, and all of the compliments on our photos truly shows that! Christine & Broden 7/21/18"”

Rabbi Noyo (Rabbi Sarah Noyovitz) is a warm, inclusive, and creative officiant based in Boston, MA. She crafts meaningful, personalized wedding ceremonies for couples of all backgrounds - Jewish, interfaith, non-religious, queer, poly, and beyond. Whether you want something simple or symbolic, she will collaborate with you to make it feel deeply “you.” She brings care, clarity, and joy to every celebration and believes your love deserves to be honored with intention.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Rabbi Noyo is the best! Hire her now. More context: We hired Rabbi Noyo to officiate our interfaith wedding in September 2024. We wanted to add some jewish elements to our wedding but did not know what our options were beyond breaking the glass and the Chuppah. Rabbi Noyo was understanding and patient with us - she took the time to really get to know me and now husband, our history, what we love about one another, etc. She also encouraged us to have important, difficult conversations leading up to the wedding, which she cleverly coined as 'pillow talk'. This helped strengthen our bond and us feel completely secure and ready for our upcoming nuptials. In additional to these sessions, Rabbi Noyo also took the time to explain the various elements that could be incorporated leading up to and during the ceremony, the significance behind them, and even provided information on where to learn more/buy items. She never pressured us or made us feel badly for skipping ceremony components and even provided alternative language for blessings that felt more like us. She also provided input on our program, reviewed our vows, and even had printed copies ready for us during the ceremony. Rabbi Noyo made our wedding ceremony truly perfect. Her words during the ceremony were BEAUTIFUL, heartfelt, and funny. She knew the little things that mattered (including setting expectations ahead of the ceremony, moving to the side for the kiss, etc.) and helped everyone feel so comfortable. She gave clear instructions to the guests and helped make sure that the special moments worked seamlessly. She encouraged our love to shine through and facilitated an absolutely gorgeous ceremony. Our guests are even still talking about how amazing the Rabbi was and asking where to find her. Rabbi Noyo made our wedding exactly the way we wanted it to be, and I know she will do the same for you. Hire her! You will not regret it :)”

Whenever we wanted to make revisions or talk through what we wanted to say during the ceremony, it never felt stressful or formal. Instead, it felt like a genuine conversation with someone who truly cared about making our ceremony meaningful. She created such a comfortable space for us to speak openly and honestly, and her knowledge and experience really showed throughout the entire process.

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.

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.

Most couples who work with me take their relationship seriously, but don't take themselves too seriously. They're educated, do Wordle, read the NY Times and have a healthy sense of reality. Since 2011, I've been writing and performing personal, meaningful and refreshingly engaging ceremonies. Couples work with me in an easy, collaborative way. I take guest experience and your wishes very seriously. I have the ability to command a room, a writer's knack for shaping a story, an emcee's sense of timing, and experience at the most prestigious venues. My BFA in Acting (Boston University) and MFA in Creative Writing (NYU) serve me well.

From the first meeting, Chris was engaging and fun, yet professional and had a clear process that he explained to us. That process, included questions that dove deep into our relationship and love story and was extremely fun for us to complete. As I look back, his process feels like a super special part of the planning process. Then came wedding day…. Chris was phenomenal!!! The ceremony was so fun and exactly our vibe. He involved our guests the perfect amount and the ceremony felt so special and exactly what we wanted.

“Our wedding day wouldn’t be possible without Reem. Not only was she kind, compassionate, and flexible, but she was an excellent problem solver who handled an entire venue change with 24 hours notice. The day before our wedding our reception venue cancelled on us and Reem really stepped up and saved the day. She handled the venue change, coordinated with multiple vendors, all while making sure our ceremony went smoothly. She and her assistant dealt with every issue with a smile on their faces and ensured that my husband and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Anyone would be lucky to have Reem in their corner for their event.”

“We had the pleasure of meeting Sam (Samantha) at a friend’s wedding, and from the moment we encountered her, we were struck by her phenomenal charisma and warmth. When it came time to choose an officiant for our own wedding, we immediately thought of Sam, and we couldn't have made a better choice. She was not only incredibly helpful throughout the planning process but also shared valuable tips that truly guided us. Sam took the time to understand our style and made sure our ceremony reflected who we are as a couple. Her genuine care and support made us feel like she was part of our family. Throughout the entire process, Sam was organized and professional, consistently checking in with us to ensure everything was on track. Thanks to Sam’s calming presence and talent, our ceremony was absolutely amazing. She helped us stay focused on the beautiful moments we were there to celebrate, allowing us to truly enjoy every second of it. We are so grateful for her and couldn’t have asked for a more compassionate and talented officiant to share in our special day.”
