Meet Our Officiant

Hello
I’m Luanne OBrien, and I believe that every love story deserves a beautiful beginning—regardless of the guest count or the budget.
Your Ceremony, Decades in the Making
I created The Chapel because I saw a need for something between a large-scale wedding and a quick trip to the courthouse. You shouldn’t have to choose between "affordable" and "meaningful." My goal is to provide a soulful, stress-free environment where you can focus entirely on one another.
Why Experience Matters
As an ordained non-denominational minister recognized in Pennsylvania, I have been officiating weddings since 1999. Over the last 25 years, I’ve performed ceremonies at more than 400 venues across Pittsburgh, Western PA, Ohio, and West Virginia.
That deep well of experience has taught me one vital thing: the most "heartfelt" moments aren't just found in the grandiosity of a ballroom; they are found in the smallest spaces through the sincerity of the words spoken. I’ve brought the expertise gathered from hundreds of large-scale events to this intimate space, ensuring that your elopement is handled with the professional polish of a major production but the warmth of a private sanctuary.
A Personalized Touch
Whether I’m playing your favorite song for a walk down our tiny aisle or helping you capture the perfect post-ceremony photo, I am here to ensure your "I do" moment feels like you. I’m honored to be a part of these intimate milestones and can't wait to help you start your next chapter with a ceremony that is as seasoned as it is soulful.
