LC's Simple Ceremonies & More

When my wife and I started the process of putting our wedding together she gave me one task and that was to find the officiant. I had no idea where to look or what I was even looking for to be honest but thankfully in this day in age the internet is here to help, and that is how we came across Pastor Ladonna. Her reviews were wonderful and she was in the area so I emailed her to see if she could possibly squeeze us in to her schedule with only about 3 weeks until the date we picked to be married. She responded the same day and we met that weekend to discuss our plans. After our meeting my wife and I both felt as if we had known Pastor Ladonna our entire lives. She made us feel so comfortable and so relaxed that it was an easy decision to use her. She also was able to give us some good ideas and had sample ceremonies that she had done in the past that allowed us to create our own personalized ceremony. Her fee was extremely reasonable and fell under the budget we had allotted. She even offered to have her husband take video of the ceremony for us since my wife's father couldn't be there due to a knee surgery he had undergone. Ladonna made sure we understood that this was our ceremony and whatever we wanted she would do. She offered advice when we asked but never interjected her own opinions to sway us one way or another. Our ceremony was just that OURS and that made it even more special. The day of the wedding had plenty of hiccups such as the cake collapsing and a few other mishaps that would normally have anyone on edge but Pastor Ladonna spoke words of encouragement and really made us both feel at ease. The ceremony was simple and beautiful and every one of our guests commented on how much they loved it. My wife and I both felt very blessed to have been able to meet Pastor Ladonna and use her services. She truly made our day memorable and we both feel that we not only found the best officiant for our purposes but also made a friend.

I truly appreciate the services of Pastor Ladonna. We decided to have a private elopement and were in a time crunch to be married on the day we met. She was the only vendor to respond to my email on wedding wire, in fact, she responded in about an hour of my initial email. Pastor Ladonna couldn't stress enough that she is an officiant because she loves to marry people. Our wedding was definitely our style thanks for Pastor Ladonna. I will recommend her to all my friends.

Thank you!!! We will never forget your hospitality.

LaDonna was our first choice when it came to deciding on an Officiant for our wedding. Neither my husband or I are very religious so we wanted a simple ceremony but someone very personal. LaDonna was extremely professional and she still kept it very personal when it came to our ceremony. She got to know both my husband and I and incorporated our love for each other very well, within our ceremony. When we weren't able to get out to meet with her, she was more than willing to come to us. She helped with so many aspects of our wedding from being our Officiant, making and printing our programs, to helping with little things throughout our entire wedding. LaDonna only wanted what we wanted in our ceremony and that truly meant a lot to us. If we didn't want something said during the service, it wasn't said! She brought us numerous styles of ceremonies and even provided us with a book to look at for different verses/vows we might want in our ceremony. Whatever we wanted, she delivered. Our ceremony was done to a T on what we wanted and she didn't mind that at all. All she kept telling us was "It's your day! Whatever you want, I will do." LaDonna was an amazing Officiant and I recommend her to everyone! Thanks again LaDonna!!!

We wanted to get married on 11/11/11 - a decision we made at virtually the last minute - and found that the Justice of the Peace was unavailable, and we have no church affiliations so we thought we were out of luck. I found Ladonna at the last minute and she was so willing to help us put together a very nice ceremony. She helped with examples of ceremonies so we could write our own vows, and even helped us with the venue. She was totally wonderful and made our exchange of vows a very special occasion. Thanks so much!!!!

Ladonna is an amazing person, not only did she marry my husband and I but she made and sent out our invitations, went out bought and made our bouquets etc, made our very gorgeous and yummy favors, the vows etc she did so much for us to make our day easier and stress free!!! She took a lot of her time and energy and put it into our wedding preperations and they turned out amazing!! Everything she did was so afordable no matter what your budget is! She is a very creative person and gave us so many ideas on everything. If you are newly engaged and dont know where to begin or you are 3 months away from your wedding date and have so much todo Ladonna will help you accomplish everything! We wouldnt have changed a thing we are so pleased with everything she did for us! When we have a vow renewal we would be honored if Ladonna would preform the ceremony and help us plan it!

I have the proud honor of being my sister's Pastor Ladonna Vaughn-Crowl's first wedding ceremony.  I will admit that at first i was nervous but all of my nervousness vanished during the night of our rehearsal because she was so prepared.  I could tell that she spent numerous hours rehearsing the wedding plan my wife had written. My wife had written a wedding cerimony that was a combination of her cultural heritage and a contemporary service. Pastor LaDonna respected our wishes and was very flexible.  During the rehearsal she listened to our requests for changes and offered valuable advice, which created a fantastic wedding ceremony.   She even took time to research my wife's cultural background so she could make the sermon more personalized. Many of our guests commented on how lovely our ceremony was. Having my sister perform our wedding was the best choice we ever made.  We can not thank her enough.
