Reviews for Rev. Barbara Laughray
Rev. Barbara officiated our wedding and was wonderful. I've heard so many compliments since the wedding on her delivery and how personal she made it feel. She was great to work with prior to the wedding in terms of helping us figure out how we wanted the ceremony to go. I'm Catholic and my husband is Jewish so we had to make sure we still had a meaningful ceremony that didn't offend one side or the other. She had the pefect approach for us and helped us tailor our ceremony to our needs and wants. She was also very helpful in giving us information on getting our marriage license and even mailed the document back to the county for us while we were on our honeymoon. We had our official marriage license in the mail when we returned! I highly recommend Rev. Barbara. She's organized, helpful and just a joy to work with. I'm so happy she married us!
Rev. Barbara is hard to come by for a good reason. She has such a soothing and calming way of planning things. We couldn't have picked a better person to marry us.
If you can get her, do it....
I highly recommend Barbara Laughray. She did such a beautiful at our wedding. Not only did she do a great job officiating our ceremony, she was also wonderful to work with and she handled a lot of the details for us including our marriage license. We were extremely happy with her.
About Rev. Barbara Laughray
The reason her peers, and indeed so many couples, choose Rev. Barbara to marry them is no mystery: she changes lives. She is a charismatic speaker whose words are filled with the love, support and tenderness she feels for her brides and grooms and their families. She is able to help couples clarify what is really important to them, and guide them to an understanding of the wedding ceremony as not just a one-time ritual between two people, but a lifetime commitment to themselves, their families and their communities. In short, she awakens her clients to the higher purpose of marriage.
"If you're looking for a left-brain ceremony, I'm probably the wrong person for you," says Rev. Barbara. "For me, the wedding ceremony is completely right-brain-it's an art form." She meets with each couple twice, but by the end of the first meeting she's already established a comfortable intimacy with them. "Often couples don't know what they're looking for when they come in, but they tell me they feel like they've found it by the time they leave," she confides.
Though each ceremony is individually tailored to reflect the values of the bride and groom, a constant theme running through every one is the power of unconditional love. Rev. Barbara's ceremonies are organic creations. She doesn't speak from a book or a prepared piece, but from the heart. Always present in the moment, she's able to draw on the emotions, humor and energy all around her to express words that touch people profoundly. What she says is extremely personal to the bride and groom, but it is also meaningful for everyone in attendance. Friends and family walk away from her ceremonies sensing that they've received a gift too.
