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.

Very smooth and easy! Our ceremony was so personal and unique to us. Lori McIntosh helped my brother 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. Her personable demeanour, care, and professionalism were superb. Thank you, Lori, for being great!! Other than marrying each other, it's hard to top that. From the wedding officiant side of things, the best thing was that Lori did not feel like a stranger to us; she was definitely a key part of the ceremony. No, everything was just perfect. Aug 2025

We were absolutely thrilled with the experience we had with Lori McIntosh! She contacted us to set up and meet and greet meeting before the wedding to get to know us as a couple before hand 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

The booking was very user-friendly and made it easy to find the perfect officiant for us. It was a small intimate gathering, we appreciated the experience. Our officiant was fun and professional, and even helpful by giving a tissue to the teary-eyed bride. It was an overall great experience. May 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
