You already know
this moment matters.
Something in you is ready
to mark it as sacred.
I'm Lauri. I help you cross this threshold with intention, beauty,
and a ceremony that feels unmistakably like you.

You Found Me For A Reason
I'm Rev. Lauri Ingram an ordained interfaith and interspiritual minister, holistic coach, and ceremony designer based in Hamden, Connecticut.
I've spent years learning to hold space for the moments that change everything. What you may find, as so many do, is that this work goes deeper than you expected — and that's exactly the point.
A ceremony is not what happens
at your wedding.
It's what you carry from it.
Every word spoken. Every intention set. Every soul in that room who witnessed you choose each other.
Every Threshold Deserves to Be Honored
Wedding and Committment Ceremonies
Bespoke ceremonies for every kind of love — intimate elopements to full celebrations.
Baby Blessings &
Welcoming Ceremonies
Welcome new life with intention. Interfaith and secular options for every family.
Life Celebrations &
Rites of Passage
From memorials to milestone transitions - every ending and threshold honored with care.
Whatever you are stepping into — or letting go of — there is a ceremony that belongs to this moment.
Our Hearts Choose Our Partners
That choice is sacred -
however it looks, whoever it includes.
"One of the most meaningful suggestions Lauri gave us was the idea to include a tree planting in our ceremony. We planted a Washington Hawthorn tree, which now symbolizes our marriage and blooms each year right around our anniversary. It was such a special, lasting touch that we'll carry with us forever."
Olivia and Josh, May 2025
Something Deeper
For those who want to begin
before the beginning.
The Sacred Foundation Experience is nine sessions of intentional work — together, with me — exploring the architecture of your shared life, and culminating in a ceremony and Marriage Covenant that comes from that depth.
If you sense there's more to this than a wedding, you're already asking the right question.
How It Works
From first conversation to the moment you step forward.
You don't need to know what you want yet — that's what we discover together.
A CONVERSATION
We begin
A complimentary call — no agenda, no pressure. You share what you're imagining. I listen for what matters most.
DESIGN
We craft
Together we build a ceremony that reflects your values, your story, and the people who know you best. Nothing is generic.
PREPARATION
We prepare
I guide you to arrive fully present — not just physically, but emotionally. You'll know exactly how to step into this.
THE CEREMONY
I hold the space
You arrive and experience it — trusting that everything has been held with care.
What couples carry with them.

"I felt like she had known each of us for many more years than she actually has when I first read her draft."

"Her authentic expression of love and spirituality created an experience for us that was incredibly sacred, elegant, and meaningful."
Jaqulyn and Sean,

"When we asked her to include 'This is the way' call-and-response moments for our Star Wars–loving hearts, she jumped right in with enthusiasm. Our ceremony was the perfect mix of tradition, humor, and heart."
You're closer
than you think.
The first step is simply a conversation.
No obligation. No agenda.
Just two people talking about something that matters.
