Introduction

I am probably one of the most unique REFORM RABBI you will ever ever meet. You should hire me to perform the lead into the beginning of your lives together with someone that clicks with you both. I have that type of personality that once you meet me you just know that I am the right person. A bit like judge Judy but not as harsh. I write and create each and every single Ceremony for each and every couple. No two ceremonies are alike. I am a reform rabbi who specializes in interfaith ceremonies. I am not intimidating and since we meet at least 2 to 3 times prior to the Ceremonies we already are friends you feel comfortable around me the Ceremony flows so much better it’s more relaxed it’s very natural, it’s romantic, it’s as religious or non-religious as you want me to make it. You are the boss I don’t dictate your Ceremony. Your Ceremony consists of romance, customs and traditions, family, perhaps children from a prior relationship, serious and tender moments, as well as a bit of humor. All interfaith ceremonies include all the definitions of what customs from each side mean so that everyone in attendance understands and appreciates each other‘s cultures. Totally equal representation from both sides. We don’t want anyone saying that it was a one-sided Ceremony. Equal representation of both. It’s your call, I write what you tell me to write. After more than 1000 Ceremony’s since 1995 I still keep in touch with my couples I am part of your life. I’m not there for one day and then forget about you. When you have children I’m there, if you need counseling I’m there at no extra charge, so basically what I’m saying is I’ve become part of your life. Originally from Long Island, I was the house rabbi for over six of the top catering facilities. Relocated to Florida and trying to make Rabbi Judith a name that’s Makes Florida proud. All it takes is a simple phone call or message. I’m so sure that when you hear and see my creations, You will know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you have made the right decision. Of all the serious decisions you have to make in planning your day let me be the easiest choice you have to take. I will create your Ceremony at no charge, that’s how sure I am. Until we speak and meet, Mazel Tov. How many ceremonies have you ever been to where you complemented the couple on the Ceremony? I guarantee you’ll hear nothing but compliments. So let’s have some fun and not just make memories for you both, but for all in attendance as well. I also make this promise, a very easy one. Everyone will enjoy the Ceremony and no one will fall asleep.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

unfold fold
Nothing that I do is complicated... I can write, create and make any couple that they honored me with performing their ceremony. It's about the ceremony, the tradition of marriage. It's not about the MONEY, I am CLERGY NOT A VENDOR......However since I DO travel to many different states my airfare & accommodations are always taken care of by the Couple. Remember what they say you get what you pay for and with me you even get more.

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

unfold fold
We meet 2-3 times before the grand day. We go over the ceremony at least 2 times so that the couple is familiar with it. We have fun just talking and getting to know each other, So that on that BIG DAY we are all so comfortable with each other, NO ONE is nervous.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

unfold fold
Always reading and creating new material. Ordained INTERFAITH/ALL FAITH from The Church of Ancient Ways, ordained by Pastor April Gismondi. Lots of training from Fr. Joseph DeVincenzo Reform /Old Catholic Priest. Rabbi Sy Lowenheim and The Theological Interfaith and Jewish Seminary.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

unfold fold
It's a long story to write out, BUT if you ask me... I'd love to share it with you. AND WE'LL HAVE COFFEE WITH HALF & HALF And maybe a little piece of cake!!!

What types of customers have you worked with?

unfold fold
It's your day not mine and whatever you need or want JUST TELL ME and it shall be done.Pretty much everything you ask (as long as it's legal of course) lol Any kind of Bride & Groom YOU can think of... I've been there and done it... "TRUTH" and I even have the T-shirt. Hey did I mention I do underwater shark Tank wedding OY VEY I am Insane... But I am back good as well. So give me a call??? What are you waiting for???

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

unfold fold
How does a Ceremony under water, wearing scuba gear in a SHARK TANK sound? Crazy dress up Halloween Ceremonies. Star Wars ceremonies Every ceremony I put together is one that makes me proud and until my couple tells me it's perfect, that;s how long it takes. PERFECTION TAKES TIME...

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

unfold fold
If the couple want a GENERIC CEREMONY. I'm definitely over-kill for you. If you want traditions, something unique and Happy. YOUR SEARCH HAS ENDED. Here I am. Come on just call me and ask away. You will leave me SMILING all the way home.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

unfold fold
I take it very seriously Every ceremony is different. Every couple has different families and my work connects them and involves them all in that ceremony. Everyone is so excited dressed up and my ceremonies are the lead in to a spectacular day.AND the NO1 question by my couples is Why didn't we call, see or book her first.
