Rev. Emily Lukowski
Here is a little bit about me, but, you can be sure THIS DAY is about YOU and your love story! I am ordained as a minister of the Universal Life Church (ULC), a non-denominational religious organization that brings together people from all walks of life. I am aligned with the values that the ULC champion. This includes religious freedom, social justice, and spiritual expression for all regardless of gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, or any other defining characteristic. I have been performing marriage ceremonies of different capacities, since 2019. I love learning about people and am uniquely driven by making people happy and understanding their needs. I enjoy the process of putting into words your love story and helping to sharing it with not only you, but your family, friends, and loved ones.

Dave & Sarah
“Emily officiated our wedding but was truly so much more than an officiant. She spent so much time talking with us, learning about our love story, and making me feel so comfortable. My husband and I are not the kind of people that like being the center of attention, so standing in front of everyone to recite our vows was very intimidating. Emily sent over a draft of the ceremony and that completely eased our nerves. The words she put together for us were beautiful, personalized, and honestly better than we could have imagined for our ceremony. I cannot thank her enough. Emily is the perfect choice for anyone’s wedding! I know that what she did for us would easily translate to every other ceremony she is involved in!” - Sarah
Jacob & Tracy
“Emily is amazing, first off. She was recommended to me after my first officiant bailed out at the last minute, and it was truly serendipitous. I was not a bridezilla-type, so I didn't have much as far as wants and needs, I only had one specific request of incorporating one of my favorite poems and she did so flawlessly. She ask me and my husband great questions that were meaningful to both of us: how we met, this significance of certain aspects of our wedding, etc; ceremonial procedures, how we wanted to be addressed at the end, etc. She had it completely down pat! Nailed it. Could not have asked for a better experience. Plus she's hilarious, so that's an added bonus.” - Tracy
David & Paige
“Emily was the absolute best! From the time we booked her until the day we said our vows she was not only professional and timely but also creative. She has a calming presence and took the time to learn about us personally to ensure our vows meant something to us on a deeper level. She summed up our love story perfectly and even made our guests laugh! Her guidance through every step made us feel more comfortable speaking in front of all of our guests and made our wedding day so special. It truly is a day neither of us will forget. I truly believe that booking an officiant that wants to include the details about you and your partner's relationship is so important. We highly recommend Emily to everyone!!” - Paige
Tyler & Katelyn
“From our very first brainstorming conversation through planning, rehearsal, and the ceremony itself, Emily made us feel comfortable and supported. What initially felt like one of the most intimidating parts of wedding planning quickly became easy and enjoyable because of her guidance and expertise. She has a beautiful way with words and truly took the time to understand our relationship, creating a ceremony that felt personal and meaningful to us. Her professionalism, flexibility, and great sense of humor helped calm our nerves and made the entire experience feel genuine and heartfelt. We are so grateful to have had Emily as our officiant and highly recommend her.” - Katelyn
