TLM Creative Services is a full-service wedding officiant company specializing in wedding ceremonies of all kinds. Based in the greater Lansing, Michigan area, we are also available to travel to surrounding areas as requested. The company is owned by Teri McNea, and during our busy season, her son Jack also serves as an officiant when he is available. Teri’s grandson Evan also works with us. He attends weddings with us and is a fantastic assistant.
Teri: “I am honored to help each client create a personal celebration that reflects their vision. I enjoy working with all kinds of couples, from newlyweds beginning their lives together to those renewing their vows after many years. As an ordained officiant, I love creating personalized ceremonies that genuinely reflect each couple. To do that, I take time to get to know them and invite them to share their unique story. That allows me to weave meaningful, personal touches into the ceremony. It is especially rewarding to watch couples walk down the aisle, knowing I helped bring that special moment to life.”
We work closely with every couple, no matter the type of celebration they are planning. We offer a variety of commitment ceremonies, including elopements, spiritual and interfaith ceremonies, second weddings, and more. We proudly serve couples of all faiths and LGBTQ+. Our goal is to help you enjoy this special milestone and fully embrace the moment you have been dreaming of.

What our clients are saying about us . . .
“My fiance and I signed up for a quick elopement ceremony, but Teri asked if we would be willing to do a small 5 minute ceremony instead, then do the paperwork. Teri made it more romantic instead of just a paperwork transaction. It was really special and I can’t thank her enough for that. We are going to have a big wedding next year and we already asked Teri to officiate that for us. She is fantastic.”
— Bianca and Daishon, April 11, 2026
“TLM Creative Services and Teri McNea thank everyone for their kind words.
I wish that every person that visits our website can tell that I LOVE performing weddings. I love helping people in general, but working with Brides and Grooms for their special day, brings me so much joy! I have chosen my second act career appropriately.
If you are interested in becoming a client, please give me a call and let’s reserve your date today.”
— Teri McNea, Owner and Ordained Officiant
“We went on Thumbtack to find a low-cost wedding officiant and we found Teri. Her prices were great, BUT what she did for us was beyond what we paid her for. She wrote a moving ceremony script like I have never heard before and it included parts of our journey and how we got here to our wedding day! It was ALL written only for US! We met with her over video calls when we wanted to just talk things through with someone, or make small changes in the ceremony script and she was totally fine with the requests.
She kept telling us that it was OUR wedding day and not to worry. We didn’t have a wedding planner or coordinator, we were doing things ourselves, so Teri made us a ceremony timeline sheet of what happens when, where, and by whom in the ceremony, it even included the signals to tell the DJ when to start any of the music choices (background music, loud wedding march, etc.).
She performed our ceremony with her deeply moving personalized just for us script, and it brought tears to even our guests eyes, it was so beautiful. If I ever meet someone who is engaged and doesn’t already have an officiant, I am going to tell them about Teri. She is fantastic.”
—Max and Cindy, May 12, 2026
“We haven’t had our wedding yet, but since we hired Teri, things have been so easy, she set up a Google Meet call and we all got to know each other, from that call she helped us figure out things we want in our service that we didn’t know were okay to include. In 2 weeks Teri got back to us with her draft ceremony script and we discussed it over another Google Meet call. We were so pleased with what she wrote for us, it was personal and reflected us as if she had known us for a long time. I didn’t know a wedding officiant could do what Teri has done for us. I can’t wait for my wedding day. She promised magical, so far she has delivered!”
—Marin (and Roberto), May 17, 2026
“Teri was real nice and so very calm, which helped me not to be so nervous. She gave us all the things we asked for in our service, and then some. We think she was great and has great pricing for what she delivered on, especially because we were on a strict DIY budget.”
—Dylan and Connie, December 20, 2025
“Teri really knows her stuff. We talked for 15 minutes about my relationship with Michele and talking things through with Teri, I immediately knew exactly what to say in my vows. Good thing Teri was taking notes, or I might have forgotten some of it. I can’t wait to say my vows to my bride.”
— Jake (and Michele), May 6, 2026.
“Our wedding was wonderful from start to finish; Teri was amazing. She had us interject our words and personality style into the ceremony script. She even provided us with guidance and an outline for each of us to use to write our vows.
We highly recommend Teri!”
—Rachel and Kyle, April 19, 2025
“She (Teri) was really excited to hear about our wedding plans, made things very easy to understand, gave great advice and suggestions. Over-all a super fantastic experience!
— John and Allison, June, 20, 2026
“Teri was wonderful to work with. She is very sweet and accommodating.”
