Testimonials
Dear Rabbi Paris and Reverend Kessler, Words cannot express how thankful we are to you for helping us create the wedding of our dreams. From the very start, your guidance was invaluable. You took the time to get to know us, you listened to us, and the end result was a ceremony more beautiful, more special, more meaningful, and more personal than we ever could have imagined possible. It was absolutely amazing and it touched our hearts in ways so profound that we cannot describe them in words. Your attention to detail and planning allowed us to relax on the day of our wedding and just focus on each other. You created such a loving and energetic atmosphere, and we received so many compliments on how beautiful the ceremony was – even from Grandma! Beyond that, your support and advice helped us to finally truly feel comfortable with ourselves, our relationship, and our future. We now, more than ever before, feel that we can be open and honest with the world about who we are and what we believe. Your words will be with us now, as we begin our marriage, and for many years to come as we begin our family and beyond. Thank you just doesn’t seem to be enough to express our gratitude to you, but it will have to do for now. So, thank you for helping to begin our marriage and our new life in such an exceptionally special way. Brooke and Jeff, 12/2010 |

This "thank you" is long overdue. Albana and Gabor, 05/2009 |
"We felt comfortable with you right from the very first meeting. You took the time to listen to us and to get to know us. You also kept our best interests in mind at all times and truly understood how to conduct a multicultural ceremony that made our families and friends feel included and loved. We feel privileged to have met and worked with such a warm, understanding, and professional team. Your help and guidance during the six months before the wedding contributed greatly to the success and joy on our wedding day. The ceremony itself was just perfect for us. Your ability to take the time and effort to accommodate our wishes, diverse backgrounds, and expectations has touched us deeply. Thank you again for being a part of such an important day in our lives and for your warmth, sensitivity and understanding." C. & S., 05/2005 |
"Soon after the exciting day that Alon asked me to marry him, I began wondering what type of wedding ceremony would be possible between an Israeli and an American, living abroad in Spain, with our combination of Jewish and non-Jewish backgrounds. Upon the first correspondence with Rev. Enid Kessler and Rabbi Stuart Paris, it became abundantly clear to us that whatever barriers in our cultural differences we thought might pose challenges, would instead become blended by Enid and Stuart into a complementary expression of our love, traditions and values. Because of their professionalism, sincerity and dedication I had not only peace of mind when planning my wedding, but a joyful anticipation of what I knew would be, and was, the best day of our lives. I am still being told by our friends and family who came to Spain from all over the world, that our wedding was the most moving ceremony they had witnessed, and this is from people of different religions, different languages and different countries. I will always be grateful to Enid and Stuart for their guidance throughout the planning of the ceremony, and of course for officiating a ceremony that can only be described as otherworldly, because of how magical and beautiful it was. I cannot think of a better way to begin married life, than from the starting point of the wedding of your dreams." Genevieve and Alon, 07/2004 |

We just received the videotape of the wedding?although we, of course were present at the ceremony, we were too overcome with the importance of the occasion to concentrate on what was said. However, after watching the videotape we really appreciate the beauty of the service you performed. Thank you so much for making Jodi's wedding so special.
