Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
During our interview I do my very best to get as much detail from the stories of the couples lives; how they met, why there are so deeply in love w each other, unique things that they have discovered about each other, and other poignant and even funny stories and I incorporate it on to the wedding ceremony which makes it very personal.
Initially I respond to every customer as soon as possible and answer any questions they have over the phone, congratulate them for finding their love/fiancé in a crowded world, and set up a time where we can connect via face to face interview or FaceTime if they are out of town.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I receive my ordination training from two Yeshivas yet mostly from shadowing my mentors and my parents and my grandparents who were all rabbis.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
Generally sliding scale between $800 and $1500
