Lori McIntosh

The Thompson-Okanagan area has been my home for the past 30+ years, and my husband and I live in Coldstream with our two rescue dogs. I'm open minded, honest, reliable, and also known as Mrs Santa Claus to many children each Christmas -- a volunteer role I love to play. I also love to crochet, golf, travel, and spend time with family and friends. My goal is to make you feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible in the days up to your wedding and during the ceremony as well. Together, we can make your special day a fun and memorable one, no matter how large or small your gathering.

It was very easy to find an officiant, and the one we had chosen, Lori McIntosh, was great. Everything went smoothly, and we had no issues other than the cool weather. Everything was perfect. Lori was absolutely amazing to work with and understood the importance of incorporating my indigenous culture into the ceremony. She was fun and very kind, and I really appreciated the time she took to answer all my questions. October 2025

Very smooth and easy! Our ceremony was so personal and unique to us. Lori McIntosh helped my brother (as co-officiant) craft such a wonderful and meaningful ceremony! It was truly so magical, and it meant a lot that we were able to do it in a manner that suited us! Lori is wonderful, communicative, and made us feel super comfortable! We loved having her as our legal officiant! September 2025

Lori McIntosh was, in one word, 'amazing.' Lori was the perfect officiant in every way; we actually felt like we already knew her, even though we just met Lori did not feel like a stranger to us. Her personable demeanour, care, and professionalism were superb. She was definitely a key part of the ceremony. Thank you, Lori, for being great!! August 2025

We were absolutely thrilled with the experience we had with Lori McIntosh! She contacted us to set up a meet and greet before the wedding to get to know us as a couple beforehand and get a few details for our special day. I instantly felt a great connection and knew she was the right person to marry us! Lori was punctual, well-prepared, and exuded such calm and positivity, which truly set the tone for our wedding. We are beyond grateful for the love and care Lori poured into our ceremony. It was everything we hoped for and more. An unforgettable moment that we will cherish forever, thanks to her incredible officiating! I would highly recommend Lori! She’s simple amazing! September 2024

Lori McIntosh made our simple wedding so easy and comfortable. We decided on the previous Sunday to get married the next weekend, and Lori made it happen! We wanted a small wedding with our kids and witnesses, and Lori made it more special than we could have imagined. She is such a sweet lady and really wants the best for her couples! October 2023
