Testimonials
...What we kept coming back to was what an amazing role you have both played in this amazing event. Aside from all of the wonderful feedback we have received from all of our guests about the service, we both recall the service with a kind of awestruck fondness. We feel that the service was a beautiful representation of us. We couldn't imagine a service that would have fit our tastes, our sensibilities or our relationship better. We can't put into words what that means to us. It's not everyday that people come into your lives and can stand for something and mean so much to you. You both have done that for us. Your unending support, kindness, generosity and grace is enheartening and inspiring. Your gift to us transcended the wedding service but helped us to develop a foundation we have chosen to rest our marriage, our relationship on, and of course our future family. ...Throughout the experiences we were able to reflect back on our own lives, what we wanted for ourselves and what these things meant to us. We feel lucky to have had the opportunity and time with you both to start that discussion and explore how our identifies will come together. We, as people and husbands have grown. We thank you both from the bottom of our hearts and look forward to our future, and are increasingly happy because we know that you both will be a part of it. Thank you for everything.

It was our privilege and pleasure to be married by two warm and caring interfaith experts who actually got to know us, both individually and as a couple. Thank you for your patience, guidance and support. Our ketubah ceremony exceeded our expectations. It was absolutely incredible to have so much love and support at one table. The way you included both our families and illuminated the most unique details left us all in awe. Our wedding ceremony could not have been more beautiful! We were so appreciative of your flexibility and support of our own quirky vows. Thank you for helping us achieve a perfect balance of our faiths, and for helping us create new traditions. You know when the guests are talking about the ceremony months later it was something special! We are so thankful to have gotten to know you both and thank you for introducing us to a welcoming and vibrant interfaith community. We look forward to celebrating future milestones with you! Our deepest gratitude for helping us feel so blessed. Kelly and Lee, 10/2015 |
