Your Wedding, Your Way

It’s not really fair to compare our Las Vegas wedding to a wedding with invitations and guests and centrepieces, except that we were ahead of the trend on something important: customization. These days, brides and grooms are realizing that they can have a service that’s as long or as short as they want, and have it contain what they want, instead of taking a cookie-cutter ceremony from someone who simply inserts their name into the wording. Our friend Laurie is now an ordained Minister and that’s her niche: officiating customized, non-denominational weddings. 

Laurie Nevin is one of the wisest, most insightful people I’ve known. She’s always furthering her education, improving herself and her depth of knowledge, and freely shares what she’s learned. And it’s always in a loving way, never judgmental. She has a bunch of designations but the most intense training she’s taken was to become a Minister, recognized by the Province of Ontario.

Rev. Laurie Nevin

The wedding season is bearing down and some couples without officiants are scrambling to have someone direct them to say, “I do”. If you know someone who’s in the planning stage, Laurie would be a great choice. She’s special and takes her role in the ceremony to heart. You can find her website by clicking HERE. If we ever decide to renew our vows, we’ll ask Laurie to conduct the ceremony. Although Derek might say, what? Vows have an expiry date? But I digress. Did I mention that she also has a terrific sense of humour and a great laugh? More about that when she appears in tomorrow’s Throwback Thursday!
