officiant // celebrant // new york lover
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.
Right now, you are in the whirlwind of planning your New York City wedding. Dreaming of that perfect “I do” moment in a city that never sleeps. Before you know it, you will be standing there, looking into each other’s eyes, feeling everything all at once. And I’ll be right there with you, making sure your ceremony feels effortless, joyful, and completely you.
People often ask me why I became an officiant. The truth? Because love is magic, and being part of that moment is an honor. I’m married to my best friend, and I know firsthand how powerful and life-changing that commitment is. Every time I stand with a couple, I see that same magic unfold, and it never gets old.
As a registered New York City Wedding Officiant, I perform:
And because I know how overwhelming wedding planning can be, I bring more than just my officiating skills—I bring a calming presence, a bit of humor, and a whole lot of heart.
I’m all about making this process easy, stress-free, and, most importantly, fun. From helping you navigate NYC’s marriage laws to giving you a moment to breathe before you walk down the aisle, I’ve got you.
I have also got all kinds of planning tools and trusted contacts at my fingertips to make the process a breeze for you. Whether you are eloping with just the two of you or celebrating with a small group of loved ones, I’ll craft a ceremony that feels personal, meaningful, and totally you.
At the heart of it all, this is about you two. Your love, your story, your moment. And I’d be honored to be the one to make it official.
Let's get IN TOUCH.
Laugh away the nerves. Fall even more wildly in love. Celebrate your love story in New York City. As your officiant, I promise to make the experience magical. One you’ll remember forever. That’s my commitment to you, as you commit your forever to each other.
“It’s like in that moment the whole universe existed just to bring us together.”

We are endlessly grateful for these sweet words in our latest Happily Ever After Note! 💛 There’s nothing we love more than helping couples feel completely at ease and creating a day that’s joyful, magical, and effortlessly perfect. ✨
"Jackie is amazing at her job. The levels she goes to to make sure everything is in place on the day is nothing short of exceptional.
From meeting us to sort the marriage license and organising hair and makeup at the hotel. Uber booked to take us to the wedding location. Everything was timed perfectly. We organised all this from the UK and it just made us both so comfortable when we arrived in New York knowing it was all taken care of and we just needed to show up.
Together as a team with Sascha doing the photography they are the best in the business. Such a happy couple and go above and beyond to make your day perfect.
Thank you Jackie we will never forget our special day."

✨ Happily Ever After Notes ✨
There’s nothing quite like receiving a note that warms the heart—and this one had us smiling from ear to ear! 💛 It’s such a joy to officiate weddings and sprinkle a little magic into each ceremony, making sure every moment feels personal, heartfelt, and completely unforgettable. ✨
"We were lucky enough to have Jackie Reinking as our celebrant for our elopement in Shakespeare Garden, Central Park, and she was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The ceremony she created for us was beautiful, heartfelt, and full of personal touches that truly meant something to us. We were both so emotional, and Jackie’s words made the moment unforgettable.
Her communication was excellent throughout – she was easy to work with, warm, and reassuring, which instantly put us at ease on the day. Her help with the legalities and paperwork was invaluable and took any of the stresses and strains away. Jackie made our wedding feel deeply meaningful and special, and we couldn’t have asked for a better celebrant. Thank you, Jackie, for giving us a ceremony we will treasure forever."
From heartfelt vows under the trees of Central Park 🌳 to tiny personal touches that make your day uniquely yours, creating unforgettable NYC elopements is my favorite kind of magic. 💍💫
