Absolutely amazing experience for our wedding

Ashok Uncle was an amazing priest for our wedding ceremony. My husband and I wanted to blend different aspects of our family's cultures/religion, and he did so seamlessly. We set up meetings before the ceremony so both families could be on the same page, and he was extremely supportive, non-judgmental, loving, and kind during the whole process. Weddings can be extremely stressful to plan, and thanks to Ashok Uncle, our wedding ceremony itself was stress free and went seamlessly. 100% recommend!!

An amazing priest and loving soul

Ashok uncle was an amazing priest - he helped us make our multicultural wedding work, focusing on what was important amongst the myriad of cultural and traditional components of an Indian wedding. We loved having him as part of our journey.

Jain Wedding

Ashok bhai Sanghvi of "Jain Weddings" performed wedding ceremony for our son. He was excellent. He translated Sanskrit verses in English so everyone can understand. While performing the wedding ceremony he incorporated our jain values of non-violence, being kind ,harmonius and values of helping all human beings and all living beings. He created a very peaceful and divine atmosphere. He was always pleasant and never got upset about any questions or about any of our requests. We are fortunate to have someone like him in this country to perform Jain Wedding . I am very thankful to him and highly recommend him.

Beyond Amazing!

We found ashok uncle after trying to speak with several different priests. We wanted to modify our Jain ceremony completely to reflect the egalitarian views my husband and I shared. Ashok uncle was the only one that understood our concerns and COMPLETELY modified our ceremony to reflect OUR values. From the first phone call, he intuitively knew what we wanted. Getting him was the best decision we made. He worked with us on several drafts of what we wanted our ceremony to be. We felt blessed to be married by him.

It has now been 4+ years since we’ve been married and every year Ashok uncle sends us a heartfelt personalized text message on our anniversary — continuing to bless us and guide us.

You will blessed if you chose to have him be your priest.
