our big why

The Life Celebration and Coaching Institute was founded to address an ever growing need for excellence in leading Life Celebrations and providing unmatched inspiration and influence in the workplace. Weddings, funeral services, and new life celebrations and workplace life coaching can all be done much, much better. Over the past 20 years we have heard countless stories of ceremonies being ruined by unprofessional, untrained Celebrants, Officiants and Chaplains. The stories include, but are not limited to, names being incorrect, embellishing stories, and showing up late or not at all to funerals and weddings. In the workplace, the concerns are just as real and countless stories are told of inconsiderate life coaches treating people with disrespect.

We exist for the purpose of providing Excellence, Empowerment and Encouragement through professional training and certification.

After years of leading and officiating thousands of Life Celebrations, the founders and lead facilitators of LCCI became burdened to provide professional training and certification to the growing number of people interested in serving couples and families at these crossroads of life and in the workplace.

With the wedding and funeral industries as well as workplace life coaching in the USA being largely unregulated when it comes to standards and accountability for Officiants and Celebrants, LCCI set out to create our training and certification organization. LCCI has set the standard for excellence in leading and officiating rites of passage and serving in the workplace in North America.

Over the past 25 years we have heard from hundreds of people that our services and training are the best they have ever experienced.

People take our training in order to be better - to be equipped to provide life celebrations that are personal, professional, and far exceed current standards of what is available.
