All of the great events in your life should include ... Love Always. From wedding officiant services to table and chair rentals to wedding t-shirts and other accessories, Love Always Weddings and Parties strives to bring our clients a personal touch and exemplary service to make their wedding experience special and memorable.
Not all wedding officiants are created equal! Some just want to give you a cookie cutter wedding ceremony or have no clue on how to properly fill out a marriage license. Our wedding officiant, Carrie, has several years of experience as an officiant and enjoys working with couples to find out their individual wants and needs to craft a wedding ceremony that is perfect for them. She is available for weddings in the Fargo, ND/Moorhead, MN and surrounding areas.

I got my start in weddings through working for local government issuing marriage licenses and performing civil ceremonies at the courthouse. I've always received compliments from couples that I've married at the courthouse that they were pleasantly surprised at how nice a courthouse wedding could be! From this I branched out to doing weddings for couples at all kinds of local venues. I've done weddings at parks, restaurants, hotels and even at a zoo! What I enjoy most is learning about the couples that I work with and personalizing a wedding ceremony that encompasses what is unique about them.

My husband and I chose Carrie from Love Always Weddings & Parties as our officiant for our wedding in October 2024. We scheduled a phone call to get to know each other and discuss ideas for our wedding ceremony about one year in advance. We inquired about several officiants in the area, but we are so happy we chose Carrie! She has a very calming presence and is extremely knowledgeable about officiating and marriage licenses with her previous experience at the courthouse. After the initial phone call, we communicated by email and she provided a questionnaire to fully understand our story. Carrie was understanding when we procrastinated on returning the questionnaire. She then provided us many options of openings, readings, unity ceremony ideas, vows, and ring exchanges. It was very customizable and she was flexible in ideas to best fit our relationship. We sincerely appreciated her demeanor toward our wishes to have a non-religious wedding. About two months prior, we met Carrie to go over the ceremony, the rehearsal, and wedding day. Our rehearsal and wedding day was absolutely perfect! Carrie was kind, light-hearted, and well-spoken. We sincerely appreciate Carrie's officiating service and could not be happier with our decision!! We also had many compliments on her ceremony performance and engagement during our rehearsal dinner/wedding reception. Thank you Carrie for making our wedding incredibly special and we highly recommend her for your wedding!

Carrie officiated our wedding and we could not be happier with the outcome! She helped us with the entire process from obtaining the marriage license to customizing a ceremony that suited both our personalities. Carrie went above and beyond her role of the “officiant” by helping with vow books, music, and video! We highly recommend Love Always Wedding & Parties for any of your wedding needs!

Carrie officiated our June 4, 2022 wedding and she did a fantastic job! You can really tell she’s had a lot of experience and helped us with all the planning of our ceremony to make it uniquely ours. She provided a lot of materials to review to help us with what we wanted said and many mix and match ceremony ideas. We made a couple changes to our ceremony because of her including a unique time capsule commitment ceremony and writing our own vows. Carrie was right, that vow part ended up being the most important part of our day and it was beautiful! Thank you for pushing us to do it Carrie! Carrie is also very organized. She got everyone in tip top shape for the rehearsal and even handled a stressed out bride minor meltdown with grace and understanding. Carrie we can’t say thank you enough for making our wedding ceremony so perfect! My husband and I both highly recommend Carrie for your wedding needs. She listens to what you want however traditional or untraditional it is. Thank you so much Carrie!

Carrie was an amazing officiant for our wedding! She made the whole process go smoothly from our first meeting to rehearsal and the ceremony! She incorporated our ideas with some of her own. Would definitely recommend her to future brides that are looking for an officiant in the FM Area.

Carrie was absolutely amazing!
I'm not from here, so I was originally quite nervous about having "a stranger" do our ceremony.
However, Carrie put all my fears to rest. Right away, she sent us different ceremony options to choose from - she also included links to different sites, in case we wanted something different.
We ended up choosing the "first fight box". I have to be honest... I'm a very UNorganized person. So, three days before our wedding, when Carrie asked if we had gotten our box and our wine... of course, the answer was no (oops). Instantly, I was worried about how we were going to find a box in time; but again, Carrie was there to help! She emailed me a picture of the MOST BEAUTIFUL wine box on amazon. And then she even ordered it for us so it would arrive on time! (We just added it to the bill).
The wedding day also went so smoothly... she really was the perfect person for us!
Carrie, thank you so much for being there to answer all of our questions! And thank you for having our backs when we chose to procrastinate...
You really are the best!
Love, Branden and Lauren.

Carrie was absolutely amazing! She was able to accomodate all of our requests, and even let us write our own ceremony outline from the examples she gave us. She's very easy to work with, and I will definitely be recommending her to my friends getting married!
