Perfection!

Theresa was AMAZING. We had a very large wedding party and she did such an amazing job making sure everyone knew what to do. We had many guests tell us how much they loved her/ our ceremony!

Absolutely perfect!

Theresa was a perfect fit to be our wedding officiant. She is sweet, light-hearted and immediately put us both at ease. From the minute we met with her at our planner’s suggestion, we knew right away that we wanted to have Theresa officiate our ceremony! She is a very eloquent speaker and a pleasure to work with. She was punctual, professional and an absolute delight. We were honored to have Theresa be such a valuable part of our wedding day!

Fantastic!

Reverend Gilberti was absolutely wonderful to work with from start to finish. She was extremely responsive and prompt throughout the entire experience. I told her numerous times that she made us feel like we were the only couple she was working with, which is so special. Thanks again!

Theresa is amazing!

I can’t even tell you how much I enjoyed working with Theresa. She’s awesome! When we met with her, she was super easy to talk to. She went over all the details for the day of our wedding. She also provided multiple sample wedding ceremonies to help us with choosing our vows. My guests thought she was a great choice and I’m very happy she was the one who married us :)

Such a wonderful experience!

Theresa was absolutely wonderful! Our ceremony could not have gone better. She walked us through the rehearsal twice so we felt fully prepared for everything that was going to happen the next day. She spoke our ceremony with ease and rarely had to look down at her notes!

Meaningful Ceremony

Theresa gave us several templates to pick and choose from for a ceremony that was meaningful to us, and we received lots of compliments from guests of all backgrounds about our ceremony. Theresa is clearly experienced enough that she has readings memorized, but it really felt like she was talking with us and not simply reading what was on the page. We appreciated all of her advice and direction along the way and the copy of our ceremony that she gave us afterwards.

Beautiful Ceremony Tailored Just How We Wanted It

We chose Inner Peace Ministries for our wedding this past June and had the pleasure of working with Reverend Gilberti. She is a wonderful person! She was extremely accommodating and had a very calming presence. My husband and I were very hands on when designing the ceremony and she welcomed our ideas and made sure all of our requests were met. We cannot thank her enough for making sure our ceremony went smoothly and ensuring it was unique to us and not a "cookie cutter" experience. I highly recommend Reverend Gilberti!

Guests raved about Theresa!!

Theresa was absolutely wonderful from our first emails through to our ceremony. She allowed us to completely customize our ceremony, cutting and pasting from a few different ceremonies she offers. Our ceremony was completely "us" and we loved it!! Theresa was funny and delivered our ceremony flawlessly. She barely even looked down to read. She engaged our guests and was just wonderful! We received many compliments ranging from how she was quick to step aside so as not to be in all the pictures to her amazing delivery. She put everyone at ease, which was what we wanted! No stuffy ceremony here!! You will not be disappointed if you choose Theresa to officiate your ceremony!

Theresa was exactly what we needed for our wedding. We were definitely at a loss for what to do about an officiant; PA has some odd rules and we wanted to be sure the ceremony was what we wanted without having to create it all from scratch. With the package we chose, we were able mix and match from a bunch of different templates and readings that she provided to create a ceremony we were 100% happy with. Our meetings with Theresa were straightforward and friendly, and she was always quick to respond to my emails and make us aware of her timeline. We were grateful that she came to run a rehearsal the night before, and she was friendly, clear, and direct with what everyone should do without taking too much time. She was engaging when speaking and felt very genuine, and was happy to bow out to let us enjoy the rest of our day when the ceremony was over. She has clearly done this before, and are glad we decided to just spend the money to have someone who could confidently guide us through the ceremony. We are very happy that Theresa was part of our day.

Picking an officiant to marry us was something that we worried over for quite some time because we wanted to be certain that who we went with would be able to provide us a ceremony that was just as beautiful as it was simple and enlightening. We are thrilled to say that we found exactly that with Rev. Theresa. She has a beautiful collection of various ceremony readings and vows which allows you to build your very own that you as a couple can relate to. For both the rehearsal and the big day, Rev. Theresa was excellent, capturing the crowd and speaking with meaning. Our guests were so impressed with her, and we were asked how we found her (P.S., it was on Wedding Wire!) Rev. Theresa is very experienced and it especially shows when things don't go according to plan, such as it being rainy/windy which made it difficult to light candles, but she made an awkward situation turn right back around with a light-hearted joke. When I think back on the ceremony, I am filled with such joy and happiness that Rev. Theresa was there to guide us through to becoming a married couple. We HIGHLY recommend her to any couple who is looking for peace of mind when it comes to selecting a capable, gracious and welcoming wedding officiant.

We got married at the Lodge at Liberty Forge in Mechanicsburg and got Theresa's card during the planning process from them. Theresa, from the get-go, was quick to respond to emails and questions. She has been a absolute pleasure to work with! She was helpful during the entire planning process, including the rehearsal. We were able to customize the template for our ceremony so that it really spoke to us. We've heard nothing but wonderful things regarding the ceremony and how lovely Theresa was from our guests! I think what we appreciate the most is that she wasn't just reading from the page, but speaking from memory and was able make it more interesting-not only for us but for the guests. She put alot of thought into every line and verse as she spoke and that showed! We really appreciate how special the ceremony was, it really did feel like it was tailored just for us. We will never forget it!

Theresa also takes the time to review all that's involved getting your name changed as well, I feel less stressed about it for sure! I feel like she was exceptionally priced for all that she does, its a good deal- especially in the scheme of things. We are grateful to have found her and that she was a part of our special day! I highly recommend her for any kind of ceremony in which you need an officiant honestly-- wedding or not!

Reverend Theresa is AMAZING!! My fiancé and I found her information online, and she could not have been a more perfect fit for our day! She provides you with multiple templates that you can use to customize your ceremony. Theresa met with us about a month prior to the wedding to meet us and make sure our ceremony was perfect for us, and our day was that and more. Our wedding guests complimented how great Reverend Theresa was as well! We loved Theresa and would definitely recommend her!

Rev. Theresa was a dream to work with! We wanted a short simple civil ceremony and she delivered! She gave us multiple ceremonies to choose from and allowed us to mix and match whatever we wanted. She also gives all the information a bride would need to change your last name and obtaining your marriage license. She made the whole process a breeze. Everyone was raving about how great she was and that she had a great sense of humor throughout the ceremony as well. I would highly recommend her!

Rev. Theresa was amazing. She made it so easy to pick/write a ceremony and everything went just as planned. She was very flexible and easy to work with, made great suggestions when writing the ceremony and ensured that it stayed true to who we are. We got tons of compliments on how nice our ceremony was. Can't say enough good things about her. She is super organized and professional. Price was very reasonable and she did everything just as planned. Thank you Theresa!

Rev. Theresa Gilberti was our officiant and she did an incredible job! She was very quick to respond to any emails or questions, and she was able to help us create a ceremony that was unique to our family. Many guests commented on how wonderful of a ceremony it was, and much they liked Rev. Gilberti. She also helped us with the process of obtaining our marriage license and provided information on how to change my last name. She was fantastic!

Rev Theresa was wonderful! My husband and I were so happy with her, she was very flexible and accommodating to any changes we wanted to the ceremony. She was also super responsive any time I emailed her which was greatly appreciated. She is a great speaker and really made our ceremony special. My guests kept complimenting us about her at the reception and they were even surprised to learn that she was someone we hired and not a personal friend, because she made our ceremony so personal and warm. Rev Theresa is a true professional and we were so happy to have the most important part of our wedding day taken care of by her.

Reverend Theresa was fantastic! She was very reasonable priced in comparison to other wedding officiants. We wanted an officiant we felt comfortable with and Reverend Theresa was just that. She was wonderful to speak with and was great to work with via email. Her replies were always very quick and provided me with a lot of information. She gave me tons of ceremony templates to choose from to find one that fit our style and views. We did meet with her in person 1 time before the wedding as well. She was great at our rehearsal and put up with all of our questions and silliness. She was great the day of the wedding and made our ceremony smooth and flawless and we received a lot of compliments from our guests on how nicely it went. She was very sweet and I would definitely recommend her! Thank you again :)

Reverend Theresa was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was very flexible and communicated constantly with us. We were able to create a completely customized ceremony and it was exactly what we wanted. We received so many compliments on our ceremony and Reverend Theresa. She helped us make our ceremony perfect and unique. We had a very rowdy bridal party and she did a great job keeping everyone in line at the rehearsal. Would highly recommend!

Reverend Theresa has been absolutely incredible. She's been so flexible and helpful during our time planning. She's offered us so many options so we can create the ceremony the means the most to us. Totally worth the work and she offers the most beautiful and introspective insight.

Rev. Theresa's expertise was paramount in making our day special and unique. She offers many different options, allowing us to create a completely customized ceremony. We received many compliments on our hand-fasting ceremony, the readings, and our vows (many people thought we wrote them ourselves, as they had never heard them before). Holding our somewhat rowdy crowd together for the rehearsal might have been a challenge, but she handled it seemingly effortlessly, keeping us all in line and on track. Theresa took extra care to ensure we understood the entire process of obtaining the license and the name changing procedure as well. She was absolutely wonderful to work with and we highly recommend her to anyone wishing for a beautiful, sincere, and heartfelt ceremony.

Rev. Theresa Gilberti was absolutely wonderful to work with. Our rehearsal was fun and an absolute breeze, even with our very large wedding party. She recognizes that every family has different dynamics and works out a very detailed plan with you in private before the rehearsal to ensure that everything goes smoothly. She helped us create a ceremony unique to us as a couple. Our guests continue to rave about how beautiful our ceremony was, and it would not have been possible without Theresa's expertise.

Theresa is phenomenal! As a project manager/event planner, I am used to keeping everyone in line, but Theresa kept me on my toes. She was always one step ahead of me throughout planning our ceremony.

Theresa provided wonderful, meaningful, honest ceremony options for us to use to create our unique ceremony. After our ceremony, so many friends and family members talked about how wonderful Theresa was.

In addition to providing fantastic officiating services, Theresa also provided detailed guidelines on applying for our marriage license and changing my name.

If you live in Central PA, you must have Theresa as your officiant!

Rev. Theresa is amazing. She clicked with us the minute we met (and spent hours unexpectedly talking over coffee) and she was so helpful in crafting and personalizing our ceremony. We received so many compliments on how beautiful our ceremony was and how great our officiant was. She truly made our day so special!

Theresa was the sweetest person to work with, which allowed our wedding process to go very smoothly. We were able to pick and choose our wedding ceremony wording and had the assistance of Theresa at our rehearsal. We would definitely recommend her services to other couples looking for a non-denominational officiant.

I attended a wedding that Theresa officiated a couple years ago....when my fiance and I got engaged, I got her contact information and contacted her immediately! We had a few concerns when searching for an officiant...We didn't want to be judged for living together before marriage and for not attending church every Sunday. We wanted our ceremony to be about love and committing to one another. Our ceremony was everything we could have asked for! She is such a lovely, vivacious lady and it shined through in our wedding ceremony. We received so many compliments on how wonderful she and our ceremony were. I would highly recommend her to couples who want either a traditional or nontraditional ceremony!!!

We truly loved working with Rev. Theresa and would highly recommend her. We could not imagine anyone else as the officiant for our wedding. We were able to design our ceremony which was awesome, she had so many readings/passages/vows etc to choose from that we were able to customize the ceremony and make it truly unique for us. She truly cares about your wedding and goes out of her way to make it special. She is also great with all the small details, covers everything from seating arrangements for family during the ceremony, order of family and wedding party walking down the aisle, how to get a marriage license, how to change your name etc. The rehearsal went incredibly smoothly and was very well organized. Finally, she is also a dynamic speaker and is one of the best officiants I have ever seen at a wedding. She has my utmost respect and I would again highly, highly recommend her.

She was easy to get in contact with, fast to respond, and provided a ton of useful information.

Rev. Theresa was absolutely a blessing to work with. She is very detailed oriented and creating a customized ceremony with her was a breeze. She was opened to adding a segment to the ceremony that incorporated my children with a family promise and vows to the children. She was very organized at all of our meetings. Our rehearsal was a blast. She tolerated our silly best man and played along right with him at times. She was down to earth, humorous and above all else she was professional at all times. I'm so glad that she was able to marry us and you will not be disappointed in her services. Thank you Rev. Theresa!!

Theresa is simply the best. She was perfect from start to finish. Super helpful, informative, available and just a pure delight to work with. She really got us and made us feel at ease. We felt very blessed and lucky to have her as our officiant and our families commented afterwards how wonderful she was. She created this amazing binder of our ceremony which is a special keepsake for us and sent us a note of how much she enjoyed marrying us. We would highly recommend her to anyone seeking an officiant.

Theresa was outstanding! She listens to every last detail. Her flow is so natural. I have been to quite a few weddings where it is obvious the Officiant is not familiar with the Bride and Groom and they are awkward. This is definitely not the case with Theresa. She took the time to get to know us and get to know what we were looking for. Her guidance throughout the entire process was excellent. We have had so many guests tell us afterwards how great the ceremony was. We couldn't have asked for anything better!!!

Theresa was absolutely amazing and professional. The ceremony was delayed when the bride forgot a piece of her dress at the hotel causing a 30minute delay. Luckily, Theresa was able and willing to accommodate this. The ceremony was beautiful and her help with the entire planning process was very beneficial.

We absolutely LOVED working with Theresa! She is warm, friendly, creative, humorous, and brilliantly engaging when officiating for a crowd. She is also extremely organized and efficient, and skilled at running a smooth rehearsal (not an easy feat with my wedding party and family, hahaha, but she did it with ease!), and she thinks of every possible logistical detail in the book to beforehand to ensure that your ceremony will be flawless. My fiancée and I even wanted to create our own special wedding tradition with a sunflower watering element, and Theresa was so enthusiastic and accommodating; she voluntarily wrote up a spoken component for this tradition without us even asking, and it was perfect! Everyone complimented us on how beautifully the ceremony was presented. We couldn't be happier that we chose to work with Theresa and highly recommend that you do as well!

I have been to many weddings in the past couple years and have never heard a more elegant officiant. Her ceremony options were beautiful and she had no problem with us combining two and customizing it all. She spoke with a volume, tone, and clarity that I would expect from someone running for office. We received dozens of compliments during the reception. We highly recommend!

Theresa did a wonderful job with our wedding. She helped out with the venue and made sure that we understood what we had to do since we were coming from out of state.
Her ceremony was amazing! There wasn't a dry eye in the house as she found a way to put our love into words that it amazed me we hadn't met face to face before.
I really can't thank her enough or recommend her highly enough.!

Theresa did an amazing job officiating our wedding this past weekend. She was so easy to work with and answered all our questions! I had quite a few people come up to me at the wedding asking where we found her because she did such a great job. She was loud and clear and everyone enjoyed listening to her speak. She sent me quite a few different ceremonies and worked with us to make it our own! Great job Theresa!

Reverend Theresa Gilberti was the officiant for our wedding ceremony. She was wonderful! She sent us several ceremony styles to choose from and met with us 5 months before our wedding to discuss all the details. I really wanted an officiant who would be able to “round up” our wedding party of 14 people and make sure they knew and understood their roles. She did an awesome job! She was available for the rehearsal and kept our entire wedding party in line. She definitely didn’t just go through the motions. You could tell she wanted to ensure we had the best ceremony possible with everything we wanted, and she succeeded. Her fee was also very reasonable. I highly recommend her!

Theresa was very professional, kind and respectful as our wedding officiant. We had met with many other officiants and we were actually kind of scared of some of the others. They charged a lot of money for the same services Theresa provided at a lower cost and was much more kind and warm than the others. She was very timely in her responses. I would highly recommend her.
Included in our price, she was at our rehearsal and did a great job with making sure everyone knew where they were supposed to be. We got many compliments about our ceremony and how personalized and intimate it was. She really worked with us to make sure it was exactly what we wanted! Thanks Theresa!

We had the most amazing experience working with Theresa! She was incredibly professional and was so much fun and so easy to work with! She was able to work with us and give us her opinions to make a ceremony that was absolutely perfect for us! She genuinely cares about the people she works with and was truly enthusiastic about our wedding! I would HIGHLY recommend Theresa, she even drove two hours to our ceremony site to work with us. Thanks for helping to make our wedding day perfect!!

Theresa was great to work with and was very helpful with ensuring we had an ample ceremony. She explains everything that you need to do when you meet for your consultation and she answered any questions we had. One of my favorite things was that she took one of our Mad-Libs we had for our guests and filled it out and sent it back to us after the wedding. I thought this was a nice gesture. I would recommend Theresa to any one! We didn't even do a rehearsal and our wedding went smoothly.

Rev. Theresa did a wonderful job officiating our wedding. She helped us get the ceremony started when we were a bit overwhelmed. She announced everything perfectly and performed a beautiful ceremony. My guests kept telling me how wonderful they thought the ceremony was. Rev. Theresa is very professional and returns e-mails promptly. If you want to have a beautiful ceremony that you can count on book Theresa.

Look no further, you've found the person you want to officiate your wedding ceremony! I had an instant connect with Theresa from the first time she emailed me. She was quick to respond, down to earth, and her bright personality shined through just an email! This was reaffirmed when my then fiancé and I met with her in person in preparation of our vows. She had wonderful suggestions, an eye for details and was so warm she made us feel right at ease. The ceremony went perfectly, she even had tissues for when my husband and I got teared up during our vows. You cant teach the experience and understanding Theresa showed during our wedding day. I could go on and on with praise for my whole entire experience with Theresa... Just know this, she's the best and you will not regret your decision!

Rev. Theresa was amazing - she was so flexible when we wanted to include a friend as a co-officiant in our ceremony. We loved the wine box letter ceremony, we got so many positive comments from guests about how unique that was. The ceremony was incredibly moving and meaningful and exactly what my husband and I wanted. I would definitely recommend Rev. Theresa!

We were sure Theresa was the officiant for us immediately after our first meeting with her. So much so that we did not meet with anyone else! Theresa was organized, open, and fun. She has such a great personality! She kept in contact with us throughout the planning process and offered excellent advice. When the rehearsal finally came, she was ready and willing to go through the ceremony and procession as many times as we needed even though it was nearly below freezing outside. She took everything in stride and kept me and the wedding party calm and where we needed to be at all times. The ceremony went off without a hitch and Theresa was fully prepared with tissues and comic relief throughout as it was once again very cold. It was everything we wanted and could have hoped for. Everyone thought Theresa was completely awesome! We are so thankful she married us.

Theresa is amazing! She is so warm, kind and professional. My husband and I got married outside in Lancaster last October and she made it a perfect ceremony. We wanted a warm, inviting experience for our guests. She works with you from so many different styles of ceremonies to choose from. You have an option to make it customizable that you can have your own readings if you prefer. We used our own readings and she was okay with that.

We had a DJ play our ceremony music and that enabled Theresa to have a microphone for the ceremony and it worked out that no one had a hard time hearing the ceremony. There were no awkward moments or pauses. It was such a great ceremony that had so much meaning and it really exactly what my husband and I wanted for an outdoor ceremony.

She also will walk you through getting a marriage license, and name changing help which went a long way. I had no idea what to do or expect and she made it incredibly easy. You'll be happy you picked Theresa!

My husband and I were married in June and used Theresa's services as our wedding officiant. From the very beginning Theresa was informative and gracious. She not only informed us of the variety of ceremonies she offered but specific information as to how to obtain your marriage license and step by step directions and timeline. Trust me, the timeline is extremely important as a frame of reference, especially as the wedding got closer! My husband and I chose a ceremony and were able to customize it to our liking for a small fee. Theresa was extremely attentive, making sure she captured all of our wishes within the ceremony. At the conclusion of the ceremony, she provided us with a lovely keepsake binder of our ceremony as well as a beautiful letter and blessing. Working with Theresa was a joy as she is professional and caring every step of the way!

Theresa was extremely warm and friendly from the first time we met her to the day of the ceremony. She was very flexible with the ceremony options and all of the different types of ceremonies she offered. Most importantly though, she was on time on the day of the wedding, she made the ceremony feel very relaxed and welcoming to everybody in attendance. I would totally recommend her services to anybody.

This woman is amazing! Theresa gave us a relaxed, yet professional ceremony at a great price. She was easy to get into contact with and flexible with everything we threw at her. It was even her birthday the day of our ceremony, but she had no problem officiating. She was the perfect choice!

Theresa was so amazing! I usually hate being the center of attention and even with wedding day anxiety Theresa met me before the ceremony and talked me through it to keep my nerves at a minimum. She made sure everyone was in their place and organized ontop of giving us a beautiful ceremony ( even if I did mess it up while repeating the vows which she laughed off and went with) were so happy we chose her and would recommend her to anyone

Theresa was such a pleasant lady to work with! She was so helpful and was very quick to respond to any questions I had. Guests loved that she was laid back and spoke to us as friends, not as a client. We loved how she was able to incorporate our personal touches and that she gave us a copy of our ceremony to keep. I would definitely recommend Theresa to anyone!

Absolutely wonderful!!!! I just got married on 10/16/11 and there wasn't a single person keeping things organized and I was going insane. I was stuck up in my little room with no cell service and so scared that nothing was coming together downstairs. As soon as Theresa got there she took charge of the situation and got everyone into their places. She even made me feel a lot more calm...though I was still terrified of getting up in front of everyone. She was able to at least let me get back to my stage fright worrying and know that everything else was taken care of. She was very flexible, accommodating, reliable and prompt. I couldn't have dreamed of a better officiant!!!

We loved everything about working with Rev. Theresa from the very first phone call. She was very flexible and appreciated us an individuals. She was easy going and understood exactly what we were looking for, she even put up with our parents and all of their "interesting" questions. Everyone at the wedding raved about our ceremony and how well spoken and clear she was during the ceremony. We only wish she could have celebrated the reception with us, as she was BIG part of that day!! Highly recommended by us!

Selecting Theresa as our officiant was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! She is very kind, responsive and easy to work with. She also does a great job of explaining the important things to know about getting your marriage license and other tips. Theresa was very flexible and accomodating when our outdoor ceremony was moved indoors at the last minute due to the weather. The ceremony still turned out wonderful and all of our guests just raved about how great she was and how it was one of the best ceremonies they had been to. I would highly recommend her to other brides!

Theresa was absolutely wonderful. From the first moment I spoke with her, I felt like I was talking with an old friend. She is so warm and friendly and is great at making you feel comfortable. She is also very organized...we didn't have to worry about a thing! She worked very closely with us to make our ceremony everything we wanted, and it was perfect. In the middle of our ceremony, we did a Hand Fasting, and we received numerous compliments about how beautiful it was. If we were to do it all over again, we would absolutely have Theresa marry us. She is the PERFECT person for the job!

Theresa officiated our wedding on 11/18 and we absolutely LOVED her! She was fantastic at making us feel at ease and even commented that we were so comfortable that the tissues she held for us during the ceremony went unused! She is VERY flexible and accommodating and really has a great sense of being able to gauge what will work best for you based on your personality. Even our family members loved her! She has a great sense of humor and goes well with the flow. I highly recommend her for your wedding!

Rev. Theresa Catherine Gilberti is a lovely, lovely person. She met with us one day to get to know us, and is super-responsive via email. We just wanted a short and simple ceremony, so of course she was able to accommodate us. Her price was also reasonable, after comparing her fees to some others. She was flexible regarding the structure and order of the ceremony, took great notes about our wedding party, patiently explained everything to us, and was good at answering questions, offering advice and suggestions. Since we never did this before, that was a great help. The only thing we were disappointed with was that she was unavailable for our rehearsal due to a prior engagement. However she did provide us with a script/instructions on what to do at the rehearsal which helped a lot. She arrived early at the ceremony and was very warm and engaging. Our ceremony went smoothly, and exactly the way we wanted it. She was awesome!

Rev. Theresa was very easy to work with, flexible. Had some problems and confusion early on, but she was very professional, and took care of everything. I also like that we got a copy of our ceremony in a binder to keep. Beautiful ceremony, even if I did get nervous and laugh through half of it.

Theresa was our officiant and we had a beautiful ceremony! Although things were a little confusing about where our ceremony would end up due to weather, we finally got on the same page communication wise and the ceremony turned out exactly how we wanted ~ it was beautiful! Theresa has a very calm and serene voice and made me tear up quite a bit! Thanks again!
