Rabbi Rochelle truly did a tremendous job. Our ceremony was light-hearted, deeply personal, and most importantly for us, really fun! Rabbi Rochelle got to know us as people and as a couple, meeting with us on multiple occasions before the wedding and listening to our wishes while offering guidance and advice. As a result, she really imbued our ceremony with a sense of intimacy. Further, as an interfaith couple interested in exploring Judaism together, we really hoped for a ceremony that everyone could enjoy and feel comfortable in. Our goal was to incorporate Jewish traditions but also to explain their significance and make everyone feel welcome and a part of the ceremony. Rabbi Rochelle did an amazing job at this; our ceremony felt Jewish but at the same time it was inviting and not in the least bit isolating. It was absolutely wonderful. Rabbi Rochelle made jokes, explained the historical and cultural significance of different traditions, and in a very personal way described our story and our love and shared that with our guests. It was an absolutely beautiful ceremony. Everything we hoped for and more. We continue to have guests tell us how great our ceremony was, particularly Rabbi Rochelle.
We recommend Rabbi Rochelle absolutely and without reservation. Our wedding day would not have been as amazing as it was without her. She was truly wonderful and we feel incredibly fortunate to now count her among our friends.

Just a note to thank you for conducting a beautiful ceremony for Philippe and Libby this past weekend. You have been most gracious in accommodating everyone’s requests even when they were conflicting. We admire your poise and incredible adroitness in handling it all. Most of all at the Ketuba signing and in the ceremony you kept the Jewish spirit alive and well. We apologize for not thanking you in person but in the euphoria of the moment we were in a total daze.
Best regards,
Jeannine and Alain Farhi (parents of the groom)

So many people have told us how moved they were by the ceremony. It was more beautiful, magical, and amazing than we could have ever imagined. We were so moved by all your words. Many people said they felt like they were healed by our wedding because there was so much love around. We are so grateful to have found you, We really can't put into words how grateful we are to have found you, and are elated to know you for years to come. Thank you for blessing our lives and for being such a huge part of our marriage. Thank you also for being our spiritual guide. It was well needed and you couldn't have been more inspiring, calming, and centering to our spirits.
Thank you for all you do!

Thank you for making Kristen and Antoine’s wedding so very special. Many of our guests commented on what a beautiful and touching ceremony it was! We greatly appreciate that you took the time, both during the Ketubah signing and during the remainder of the wedding ceremony, to explain the Jewish traditions to those in attendance. You conducted the ceremony with poise and grace and helped to make it a wonderful occasion for us all.
