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.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Researching our honeymoon destination, we stumbled across photos on the web taken by Jackie’s husband, Sascha, which led us to Jackie. So inspired were we by TeamReinking, we decided to put our complete trust in them and elope from Australia to NYC. We had literally just booked our wedding in Australia. Jackie was so easy to work with and we connected with her via emails and then the moment we met in person (literally just before our ceremony). Jackie helped us create the most beautiful ceremony in April 2023 at the Ladies Pavilion in Central Park, NYC. A special moment in time filled with shared promises, love, laughter and quite a few tears. It was an emotional day for us that had been 12 years in the making. Jackie is simply a delight and it was easy for us to just be ourselves in that moment. My husband is still talking about our beautiful ceremony with Jackie by our side. I think he’s your number 1 fan, Jackie!!! Our photos (taken by Sascha) are beyond stunning and the memories of our day and ceremony we will cherish forever. We would do it all over again in a heartbeat! Tick this one off your list, celebrant and photographer sorted!! I’d give a 6 star rating if I could!! Ps I think my husband is already planning for us to renew our vows in the future with TeamReinking!!”

Our reception was in the penthouse, and the glittering skyline really made the party feel sophisticated and chic, and unlike any other wedding I’ve been to. We ended up with 150 guests, and the room felt full in a lively way without ever being overcrowded. We had some concerns about the hotel after reading reviews, and those concerns were promptly alleviated.

“Sam was truly amazing! We met just a few weeks before the wedding and she was on top of every single detail! When we first reached out to Sam, she was out of the country and still met up with us right away! She made time for us and made us feel very comfortable. She really got to know us and sent us 3 questionnaires to fill out: a general, vow, & love story questionnaire. She also sent us information regarding the legal marriage process and what her script would look like which was so very personal for us and our story. She provided guidance on how to write vows. My husband and I sent her our vows beforehand with the time it took us to say it and she gave great feedback suggesting that our vows should be around the same length and even though my husband and I didnt send the vows to each other she made sure we were on point with this! We appreciate this so much! All of our guests thought Sam knew us personally because she knew our love story and our values so well. She also made people smile, laugh, cry and feel at home with her delivery. She really took the time to read our responses on the questionnaires and it was great to go over it together before the wedding day! So awesome! Thank you Sam, you’re amazing! Book Sam!

“When I work with clients for full-service planning, my job is to source all of their vendors and bring them recommendations. This time, my clients introduced me to Holly, saying she had done a wedding for their friends. I was hesitant to reach out, as I didn't think she matched the style they wanted. Well, I'm happy to say I was proven wrong. Holly really listened to my clients and understood their vision. We gave her room to be creative and she created something better than anything the three of us could've imagined. Not only did she provide incredible florals (and produce for tablescapes), but she also did candles and draping. And a chuppah that honored the groom's tradition and the bride's desire for something unique and colorful. The best part? She was so thoughtful and understanding of the budget. Holly was an integral part of this wedding and I can't wait to work with her again!”

Whether it be an intimate gathering after City Hall or the event of the season, we can't wait to design something special and tailored to you!

“Fern Botanical’s “Parties with Fernies” option was perfect for my wedding this June! My venue offered small bud vase centerpieces for a very low cost, which meant I only needed bouquets, boutonnieres, etc. for my wedding. The Parties with Fernies option allowed me to get all of the other florals needed for the wedding, and we ended up purchasing two beautiful large floral arrangements to frame us at the altar, as well as flowers to top our wedding cake with. The team there was so responsive, and created absolutely stunning bouquets, boutonnieres, and arrangements. I shared inspiration and our colors and what they created was perfect and absolutely stunning. My venue also worked with Parties with Fernies (since they’ve worked together in the past) to coordinate so all of the flowers went well together. I was able to get amazing florals for my wedding at a very reasonable price (especially considering how expensive wedding florals can be). I highly recommend the Parties with Fernies option (and Fern Botanical) in general for anyone looking for wedding florals!”

He worked seamlessly with our planner, kept everything flowing, and the music was perfect all night.

“We got married in June at GOC and it was the best day of our lives in every way, largely thanks to the hospitality from the GOC crew. If you're contemplating having your wedding here, DO IT. Truly unreal experience from start to finish. In the months leading up to the wedding, Stella, Chloe and Joe were so flexible and made themselves available every step of the way. From our food tasting, to tap/ cocktail selection - we really felt like we had complete agency. The GOC team helped us build a menu with all of our favorite foods. Everything was so delicious and fresh - so many people complimented the food. Food and drinks were plentiful. The bar staff was lighting fast and had plenty pre-poured - I don't think anyone waited for a drink for more than 5 seconds. Stella was a HUGE support in working with our various vendors. She integrated sweet little personal touches all around the venue - from our table number, to the menus. It feels like she thought of everything. We felt so supported every step of the way. We had our 120 person ceremony on the roof, cocktail hour downstairs, and dinner / dancing upstairs. The space is so flexible and comfortably fits more people than you'd think. We had a full band, a packed dance floor, and still somehow plenty of space to roam. The team flipped the space SO fast between our ceremony and reception. The skyline and bridge view made a stunning backdrop for our ceremony. The staff made sure we had drinks in our hands, and plates at our table. when we went upstairs We were truly blown away. The space is stunning as it and requires so little decor , if any at all. We loved that GOC has table cloths/ chairs/ tableware etc. It's really tough to find a true full service venue in NYC. They really can do it all, which allowed us to be present and focused only on having fun that day. I could go on and on and on, but I'll finish by saying that I'd be happy to talk to anyone about our experience because it was truly so perfect.”

During the year-long planning process, Brittany and her team were wonderful to work with; they were responsive from start to finish and very accomodating of our requests to ensure everything matched our vision from rentals to service to food. We had a backyard wedding so food service was anything but standard. They were flexible and nimble enough to service out of a barn (!) and a garage and somehow pulled it all off without a hitch. And, of course, the food was incredible.

The day you get married to your best friend isn’t about the size of the venue or the number of guests. It’s not about the flavor of the cake or flower arrangements. It’s simply about two people madly in love with each other, the intimate connection they share, and the memories they create along the way. After the food has been eaten, the presents have been opened, and the dress is hanging in your closet, your wedding day will still be with you – in your memories and in the images captured that day.

“Sascha was so wonderful to work with!! I was completely overwhelmed with the amount of options we had available to us. I ended up narrowing down by the type of style I saw within photographers portfolio's. Sascha seemed to capture couples in their natural-at-ease compatibility. I reached out to Sascha and throughout our entire communication he was prompt at responding. We booked 4 months in advance and I did have an idea of the type of photo I was looking for. Sascha welcomed my location suggestions and we mapped out a game plan. The day arrived and though we were nervous to be in front of a camera, Sascha made us feel at ease and helped us feel comfortable in front of the lens. Sascha was easy to banter with and was flexible with angles and shots. We left Sascha after the shoot feeling excited and anxious on how well our vision translated to photos. When we got the photos back we could not be more pleased!! They came out exactly how we wanted them to and I couldn't have been more grateful to have found someone as talented, gracious and kind as Sascha.”

“Working with Evalyn, Cortney, and the team at Dish was a truly incomparable experience! I had the pleasure of getting to know Dish a few years back at my first job and had told my contact at the time, Bonnie, that I would definitely be back when it was time for me to host my big event - my wedding. After reconnecting with the Dish team, in particular speaking with Evalyn, we couldn't have felt more confident that it was the right fit for our big day. From the personalized menu, to the in house tasting, and the amazing day of coordinator, Cortney, the most important and expensive party we ever threw (and likely ever will) was in the best hands. When any changes or adjustments came up the team was eager to help make our vision come to life. A few weeks before when I wanted to do another itinerary run through, Cortney, was not just game, but so enthusiastic and supportive. As small things came up day of, Evalyn and Cortney were on it and as we were packing up, the whole Dish team helped us pack up and carry out our numerous flower arrangements. We truly couldn't have pulled this off without Dish and are so grateful for their partnership. Thank you, Dish!”
