About

I am an ordained Interfaith Minister, a graduate of the class of 2009 from One Spirit Interfaith Seminary in New York city. I have been a chaplain for the Neo Natal Intensive Care Unit for some time now and decided to also bring my gifts to a happier forum and officiate weddings as well. While chaplaincy is rewarding work, there is nothing quite like being in the joyful presence of Love and the promise of 'happily ever after'.

The decision to make a lifetime commitment to another is an act of choice. Your ceremony is the ritual that sanctifies this act and provides the opportunity for you to share your decision with your family and friends. More importantly, it is the foundation of your marriage. Whether your ceremony is being witnessed by an intimate group or your larger community, this ceremony is the ‘ground’ in which your union can take root, grow and flourish.

When you select me to officiate your ceremony, you will receive so much more than just someone to make your union legal. I enjoy getting to know you and you getting to know me, whether on the phone or in person. The words I speak at your ceremony, will be honest and heartfelt because I am no longer merely the officiant you found on Weddingwire, but the person who will be uniting you in marriage, sharing one of the most special moments of your life. I will work with you throughout the process of planning every element of your ceremony; from the words of welcome to the pronouncement and everything in between. I will guide you through the process of planning a ceremony that is meaningful to you and your partner, one that will be uniquely your own. Your ceremony will speak for you and about you. I will advise you on the required elements, suggest readings as well as guide you through the process of creating your own personal vows of commitment and statement of intent. I will also offer suggestions for rituals that are symbolic of two people joining their lives in friendship, love and passion.

I have officiated weddings as far as Mexico and California, northern New York state, D.C. and Maryland. I am licensed to perform weddings in New York State and the District of Columbia. While it is wonderful to travel to great locations, it does increase your cost since my travel expenses, room and board are your responsibility.

I am looking forward to serving those in the Central Susquehanna Valley where great wedding venues abound!

Jasmine is truly amazing. She not only takes time to get to know you, but she you can tell she actually DOES want to know you! She wrote the most beautiful ceremony for us and there was not a dry eye in the house! Her voice is soothing, yet powerful.

We honestly cannot say enough great things about Jasmine! Not only were we absolutely blown away by the personalization of our ceremony, but everyone in attendance of our wedding was as well! We have received multiple compliments regarding how beautiful, modern, and enjoyable it was. Jasmine took the time to get to know us on a personal level by inviting us to her home on numerous occasions to not only write our ceremony, but also just to talk and hang out. Jasmine made our special day fantastic! She was super easy to work with and went out of her way to ensure that everything was perfect! We would without a doubt 100% recommend her to anyone!

Choosing Jasmine as our officiant was one of the best wedding day decisions that my husband and I made. We lived too far apart to meet her in person, but she was more than happy to FaceTime with us twice before our wedding day, to make sure that our ceremony was exactly as we dreamed it would be. We received many compliments from guests on our uniquely personal ceremony, all of which are thanks to Jasmine's warmth, genuineness, and the care that she puts into getting to know her couples. Thank you so much, Jasmine!

Jasmine was absolutely wonderful. She took the time to get to know the two of us, and made the ceremony geared towards us. We are told repeatively that our ceremony was “one of the best they have seen.”

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Jasmine. She is kind, caring, dedicated and professional. She was so attentive to our needs and wishes regarding our wedding ceremony. Jasmine was determined to make our ceremony true to who we are - and she nailed it! We truly enjoyed our meetings with her and we are so happy with how our ceremony turned out. We would recommend Jasmine to anyone. We feel so blessed to have met her, and lucky to have shared this special moment in our life with someone that we know truly cares about us.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
