About
I specialize in customizing ceremonies to the needs and preferences of each unique couple. The idea is to make the ceremony a collaboration between the couple and myself to truly make it reflective of who they are. Basic simple ceremonies are available as well. I also recommend you check out my website for more information about me and the services I provide. Pricing for different wedding packages is listed on the website, or contact me for information. Elopement Ceremonies start at $120, full wedding ceremonies at $175.
Feel free to check out my reviews on Thumbtack.

I really like helping couples to design the ceremony of their dreams- that has special meaning for them, and that reflects who they are as a couple. I also enjoy researching different customs/traditions/trends to provide unique ceremony ideas.

Rev Jackie was such a saint! It was raining on our wedding day (we got married outside at the Foothills Parkway)! Our ceremony was so perfect and her wording represented my husband and I very well! Would highly recommend working with her!
