Introduction

About this officiant

Registered solemniser

With over seven years of experience and countless 5-star reviews, I’ve had the honour of crafting and delivering hundreds of bespoke ceremonies. I’m passionate about travelling worldwide to conduct your unique, unforgettable celebration. I began my journey as a celebrant, and after two years of rigorous training, I then proudly became a legally registered solemniser, allowing me to perform legally binding weddings. This progression has deepened my commitment to creating unforgettable, personalised ceremonies, from weddings and vow renewals to baby-namings and funerals.

Growing up in a small-town Irish family as the eldest of five, I’ve always been curious about people and their stories. My own journey has been shaped by personal challenges, including fertility struggles and a life-threatening illness that deepened my connection to the spiritual side of life. These experiences have given me a profound empathy and understanding, allowing me to bring even more depth to the ceremonies I lead.

Since becoming a FuturFaith Minister, I’ve found even greater purpose in celebrating love, life, and connection. Despite setbacks like open-heart surgery, my faith and passion for ceremony have only strengthened, and I continue to offer support and solace through my work.

We were lucky enough to have Lorraine officiate our wedding ceremony recently and it was more than we ever could have imagined. Lorraine has a very calm presence about her which put us both at ease during what can be a nerve wrecking experience. We are a couple that just like things simple and wanted a ceremony to reflect that, Lorraine made that happen. We would like to thank Lorraine for her patience and understanding with our little one who thought it was her time to shine and stole the show with her antics 😅. The whole ceremony from start to finish was just perfect, it was us and exactly what we wanted. And a lot of that was down to Lorraine who was so easy to work with from the get go. We are sincerely thankful x

Lorraine was absolutely amazing from we first enquired right through until our special day. Such a kind and caring person through and through. Nothing was too much to ask for and any questions we had were always answered in a timely manner. She made the whole process so personal and I couldn’t recommend a better person to marry us. Thank you so so much Lorraine!! ♥️♥️

Thank you so much Lorraine for everything. A pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Our ceremony choice was one thing we were nervous about in the wedding planning process as we knew we would not be opting for the traditional ceremony route. In the end, we got so many comments from guests on how it was a highlight of their day and they were so delighted at how lovely and personal it was and how it radiated love and laughter throughout which is all that we wanted❤️

Myself and my now husband got married on the 19/10/2024 in the Hodson bay hotel with Lorraine being our lovely celebrant! The ceremony was just absolutely beautiful and Lorraine made it feel so warming and created a loving and sentimental atmosphere. All our guests could not get over how stunning the ceremony was and how lovely Lorraine is! Would highly recommend Lorraine she will definitely make your big day that so much more special and meaningful! 💕

We couldn't recommend Lorraine more as a celebrant. She was very responsive to our questions in the lead up to the wedding with changes to the draft, and made us feel we were in safe hands for the ceremony. She was a reassuring and friendly presence on the wedding day, and provided a very warm and welcoming aspect to the ceremony, while running the proceedings very smoothly and professionally. Thanks very much Lorraine!
