Your families will thank you for getting somebody who makes the ceremony light while still making clear how beautiful it is that you found each other. I officiate all over the US.

Working with Chris at Illuminating Ceremonies was truly a heartfelt experience. From the moment we first spoke, I could tell Chris was passionate about creating a ceremony that was a perfect representation of who we are as a couple. Chris took the time to get to know us and our personalities, and tailored the ceremony in such a thoughtful way that it felt so personal and special (our guests thought we had known him for years!). Their attention to detail and commitment to making our wedding day perfect was truly priceless. We felt so blessed to have them officiate our ceremony, which was filled with love, laughter, and a wonderful celebration surrounded by our fun-loving family and friends.

Jackie Reinking New York Elopement Officiant 

5.0

  • Offers 10 ceremony types
  • Starts at $595
  • Serves Woodside, NY

I believe that a wedding ceremony should be more than just words. It should feel like home. A moment so personal and full of love that it stays with you forever. That’s what I create for every couple I marry. I’m not just an officiant - I’m your friend, your guide, and your biggest cheerleader. I’ll be there to steady your nerves, share a laugh, and remind you to soak it all in. Because your love story is one-of-a-kind, and your ceremony should be too.

We got married October 3rd 24 and struggled trying to find the right person to officiate our day until we came across Jackie and really cannot recommend her enough! From the moment we started chatting she was the utmost professional to every email, enquiry or worry we may have had she squashed easily. The communication was great from the off and I knew we made the right choice! We utilised the services of both Jackie and her husband the photographer Sascha Reinking with their All in One Package and it was the best decision we made for the day! She talked us through every process for the marriage license and met us for the appointment! Had recommendations on locations and great guidance on our vows and the ceremony which she performed so so beautifully! They took the weight and pressure off so much of the day and made it so easy. I implore everyone to reach out to her, and her husband Sascha, to discuss how they can make your day even more special. It truly worked for us and we met people who we loved being a part of our day!

Ever been to a wedding and found the ceremony to be boring or it just felt like the Officiant didn't know the couple? We created our company with one goal in mind; to ensure your Wedding Ceremony is fun, memorable and funny. It is YOUR big day after all. So let's make sure the ceremony reflects why you are! We specialize in creating personalized, funny and memorable ceremonies that reflect the journey the couple has taken together. We meet with you several times before your ceremony. We will design your ceremony from start to finish and provide you with a minute by minute timeline of what will happen that day.

My husband and I first met Jason and his amazing wife Romney while attending a wedding vendors event in Long Island in 2023. We immediately hit it off with them and knew right away that Jason was the perfect choice to officiate our October 2024 ceremony. Through many ups and downs, including changing our venue twice and ultimately deciding on a simple ceremony, Jason was a constant source of support. He provided not only practical advice but also much-needed counseling and laughter during a time when we were struggling. His kindness and lightheartedness made the entire process smoother. This past Tuesday, Jason officiated our small, intimate ceremony surrounded by our loved ones. The day was filled with joy and laughter, and Jason played a huge part in making it truly special. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had him as part of our journey, and we cannot thank him enough for being such an important part of our big day!

We recently got married in Central Park’s Cop Cot and Alex was our officiant. He was outstanding! He crafted a beautiful message that was heartfelt, poignant and humorous in all the right places. And his delivery? Oh, my goodness! It was pitch-perfect! He barely glanced at his notes but rather spoke to us and to the crowd. It was like we were old friends or longtime congregants and he a pastor/priest at a church. However, we were not surprised. We could see being friends with Alex under ordinary circumstances. Both my husband and I were touched by his words, and several guests remarked on how wonderful he was. Thank you, Alex, for making our wedding day so special!

Hey, Are you about to celebrate something extraordinary in your life? Look no further than me to officiate your wedding ceremony. I am not just a Wedding Officiant; I am what you call a Master Celebrant. It is a more extensive term that shows my dedication to my craft, creating custom ceremonies for each couple. Hiring me will ensure I will help you create your whole ceremony with you from start to finish. As your "Third Wheel Specialist," I work with you to show off your unique love story. I'm here to make that moment you never want to forget memorable. Life is about exploring and embracing all this world has. Let me help tell your story.

It has been a longtime dream of mine ever since I saw Gossip Girl to have a iconic moment in NYC. With me going absolutely crazy with my best friend and fiancé in SoHo, Tribeca and all of the spots. I thought it would always be cool to get married in the winter but I decided I am more of a spring girly. So my fiancé suggested we do elopement when we go to NYC in May for our 4 anniversary. I that that was a wonderful idea, but I wanted a big fancy wedding. He said we can do both because he knew the wedding was going to be really expensive. So I did some research and that's how I found Crafting Soulful Stories. Charles was so warm and funny and gelled with my fiancé and I Zack. I knew he would be the perfect officiant for my big day. He helped planned the ceremony to absolute perfection. Also him and Zack surprised me with both of our parents to come to our ceremony. Charles made sure to included some inside jokes and many touching remarks about Zack's and I's story. I stress that everyone that lives in New York or visiting the city and getting married that Charles should be your officiant. He has such a way with words, and he made me cry. He is the best, so I absolutely recommend Crafting Soulful Stories. P.S. Zack is not slick he is still going to give me my Big Gay Wedding in 2025.

Rev. Dr. Samora was the perfect choice to officiate our wedding. From the beginning, she was there with us while planning our ceremony and premarital counseling. She even guided us through an argument we were having during one of our sessions. She asked us detailed questions to understand us as a couple and as individuals. She arrived on time and stood on business when there was confusion about signing the marriage license. I love a woman who is there to have a great time but also knows her job. She is that woman. She even asked about our color palette so she can match. Love that! She really became a part of our family that day. Rev. Dr. Samora is kind, loving, understanding and brought so much joy and calm to our ceremony. Out of all the vendors we hired, she was definitely our favorite. I would highly recommend her to everyone I know.

Modern. Soulful. Unforgettable. I custom-craft non-religious, Jewish, interfaith, and LGBTQ+ weddings that grab all the feels. Your love is one-of-a-kind — and your wedding ceremony should be, too. Blending tradition with a fresh perspective, honoring every story, and presenting warmth, heart, and just the right touch of humor, I strive to create customized wedding ceremonies as unique as you are. Whether you're planning a beach wedding, rooftop celebration, or backyard gathering, I’ll meet you there.

Rabbi Astrachan was an absolute pleasure to work with from the very first meeting. Rabbi insisted that we have several meetings prior to the wedding so he could really know and understand us. By doing this, he made the wedding very personable and enjoyable to our guests and us. We received so many compliments of how amazing the ceremony was. It was truly unforgettable and the best part of our wedding!! Additionally, Rabbi Astrachan made us feel very comfortable as a same-sex couple and inter-religious couple. In addition to the wedding, Rabbi went above and beyond and wrote a very personable and thorough letter to the embassy to assist with my husband's green card and visa process. We will always hold Rabbi Astrachan deep in our hearts.
