Reviews of Sara Shendelman
An Incredible Officiant Who Made Our Ceremony Unforgettable!
She guided us through thoughtful rituals, like the Seven Blessings and writing a mission statement, and incorporated symbolic elements from multiple traditions. These were moments we would have never thought of on our own, and they made the ceremony deeply personal and reflective of who we are as a couple.
The ceremony was, without a doubt, my favorite part of the day, and that’s saying a lot considering how epic our wedding was! I highly recommend Sara—she’s an amazing rabbi, a wonderful person, and truly made our day unforgettable.

This is such a wonderful company to work with. We highly recommend.
I've had the pleasure of photographing three wedding alongside of Rabbi Shendelman officiating and I'm just such a fan! She infuses a sense of stillness, depth and meaning that is typically lost on most wedding days. In fact, if I'm ever lucky enough to be married again, I'm calling Rabbi Shendelman! She comes highly recommended!
