I am a wedding planner, and this priest was fabulous to work with. He answered all of the couples questions pre-wedding, and explained the process to them. He showed up on time, and was very clear and concise during the wedding ceremony. He was very organized and engaging. I highly recommend him.I am a wedding planner, and this priest was fabulous to work with. He answered all of the couples questions pre-wedding, and explained the process to them.

Highly Recommend!
Mr. Jani was fantastic to work with! He helped guide my wife (who grew up in a Catholic household) and I (Hindu Gujrati) through an abbreviated and more modern Hindu ceremony for our wedding (we had a separate Catholic ceremony prior). He was very easy to work with and made both of our families very comfortable with the process. Communication was excellent and he was great at listening what we wanted and didn't want. After the wedding, we received many compliments from our guests on the Indian Ceremony. I can't recommend him enough, especially for a multi-cultural Indian wedding.Mr. Jani was fantastic to work with!

Memorable Ceremony
Speaking as the father of the bride, Mr. Jani did a wonderful job of making the ceremony understandable to the wedding party. They really appreciated the insightful explanations which he provided. I received a lot of positive feedback from those who attended. Many commented that it was the most moving part of the weekend wedding.Speaking as the father of the bride, Mr. Jani did a wonderful job of making the ceremony understandable to the wedding party.

Highly pleased with Bharatkumar Jani
Pandit Jani is an amazing officiant! We were particularly pleased with his clear & concise explanations of each ritual in the Hindu wedding ceremony. Many of our guests let us know how much more engaged they felt in our wedding ceremony than other Hindu ceremonies, thanks to Pandit Jani's officiating. We'd highly recommend him to anyone.Pandit Jani is an amazing officiant! We were particularly pleased with his clear & concise explanations of each ritual in the Hindu wedding ceremony.

Knowledgable & Entertaining Pundit
Bharat Uncle was a delight to work with. He was able to seamlessly integrate my Punjabi husband's and my Gujrati families' cultural requests while following through a Hindu wedding ceremony. He did all this in English and Sanskrit so all the guests could understand. He made himself available to us and our families on numerous occasions to answer questions, provide insight and offer explanations as to why each step of the ceremony is conducted. I give Bharat Uncle my highest recommendation to couples seeking a Hindu Pundit for their wedding.Bharat Uncle was a delight to work with.

The Absolute Best Indian Wedding Officiant!
Bharat Uncle was an amazing officiant for our wedding! He did a great job working closely with us to go through all the steps & making sure we properly understood all the different traditions & pieces of the hindu ceremony. Our wedding was a mixed race wedding ceremony so he also did a great job working with my now wife that she was comfortable with the various steps of the ceremony.
We also received a lot of praise & plaudits from our guests for the ceremony – Bharat Uncle made sure to explain each of the different steps of the hindu ceremony to our guests so they could follow along and understand the meaning behind each of them.
All in all, he was so easy to work with & I would recommend him to anybody in New York that is needing of a Hindu Priest!

Highly recommend Bharatkumar Jani
We could not have chosen a better maharaj for our wedding. Bharat uncle is excellent! He creates a very calm atmosphere which is needed amongst the wedding chaos sometimes. He explained the rituals very well in multiple languages and he accommodated both families in upholding traditions. Many of my non-Indian friends were able to fully enjoy and understand the wedding ceremony because of Bharat uncle’s explanations and guidance. Highly highly recommend for not only weddings but all religious ceremonies!We could not have chosen a better maharaj for our wedding. Bharat uncle is excellent!

Highly recommend!
Bharat Uncle was such a great officiant for our wedding this past summer! He went through all of the steps for the vidhi during our planning process to make sure that traditions from both families were incorporated. He made sure that my husband and I understood the meaning of each part of the wedding so that we could really feel the importance of what we were doing on the day of. The atmosphere was very calm and relaxing during the ceremony and that was because of Bharat Uncle's nature and personality, which we really loved. I would highly recommend him!Bharat Uncle was such a great officiant for our wedding this past summer!

Officiating of the Indian Wedding of Priya and Paul by Bharatbhai
Bharatbhai gave a glowing performance explaining the Indian ceremony so well that all guests, including the younger ones, paid attention. He gave background as to the reasons for the traditions and peppered the explanations with humor that kept everyone totally riveted.
I believe I, as father of the bride, bonded with Bharatbhai, and as he explained to me, his intentions for performing the rituals is to get the younger generation interested in our customs by giving a logical reasoning for them.
I have many Nieces and Nephews that over time will be getting married and I know they and their parents will be asking Bharatbhai to perform the rituals for them.Bharatbhai gave a glowing performance explaining the Indian ceremony so well that all guests, including the younger ones, paid attention.

Best Hindu Priest!
Bharat uncle made our wedding very special by explaining the importance of different rituals that are done during the wedding! His explanations were thorough and meaningful adding value to our our ceremony and making it fun for wedding guests especially who are not familiar with Hindu traditions. He was super professional, organized and flexible made sure the entire process was stress free for the family and the couple. He coordinated with the DJ and the live musicians to make the ceremony go by seamlessly. We definitely recommend him as he will make the wedding ceremony special with modern references from the ancient scriptures to make them relevant!Bharat uncle made our wedding very special by explaining the importance of different rituals that are done during the wedding!

The Absolute BEST!
My family has known Bharatkumar Jani for a long time and all of our friends and family go to him for his services. He officiated my wedding this past August and he did an AMAZING job. He explained everything so thoughtfully and beautifully. He is very eloquent and well spoken. He adheres to the timeline strictly, which is extremely important for Indian weddings. He is also excellent in making people understand the meaning and importance of the Hindu wedding ceremony in a simplistic and effortless way. I received so many compliments from my guests about Bharat uncle, especially from younger individuals who loved his style of officiating the wedding. I would give him the highest recommendation.My family has known Bharatkumar Jani for a long time and all of our friends and family go to him for his services.

The best ceremony officiant!
Bharat Uncle officiated our Hindu wedding in April 2021 -- from the start, he was incredibly kind, responsive, and professional, taking time to meet with my spouse, I, and our parents to go over the details of the ceremony (not once, but twice due to COVID!). His English translations are perfect and funny, and kept our guests engaged during our 1.5 hour ceremony. We got many compliments on the ceremony and are so grateful he was our officiant!

Wonderful Officiant for Interfaith Service
Priest Jani officiated our interfaith (Hindu/Jewish) wedding this past fall at Tarrytown House Estate on the Hudson (and on Zoom). He delivered a beautiful service that was in equal parts heartfelt, educational, and entertaining.
As a Hindu-Jewish couple, we knew we wanted to have a single combined ceremony that celebrated both families. We knew there were overlapping traditions but couldn’t figure out the right way to create a cohesive service (at around an hour). Priest Jani not only helped us to seamlessly fuse the two religious traditions, but also brought more knowledge on both religions than either family had. In addition to helping us create a beautiful service, he did an amazing job of setting aside time with both our families to ensure that everyone felt their traditions were included and honored.
As mentioned the service itself was wonderful and many guests reached out to us after the ceremony to tell us how much they admired his delivery.
We can’t recommend him more highly if you’re looking for a Hindu priest to officiate your interfaith ceremony.Priest Jani officiated our interfaith (Hindu/Jewish) wedding this past fall at Tarrytown House Estate on the Hudson (and on Zoom).

Amazing Wedding Pundit
Bharatkumar Jani did a phenomenal job marrying my husband and I. He had to merge Punjabi and Gujarati traditions together and did so seamlessly. He explains thoroughly and concisely all of the traditions in English and adds lots of humor throughout.
I would recommend his services to any and all Hindu ceremonies.

Mr. Jani did a wonderful job performing the Hindu ceremony at my daughters Indian-Korean fusion wedding. He was knowledgable, professional, and humorous at times! He conducted all the important elements of the puja within an hour which was critical for us as we had a tight schedule and timeline.
