Warm, Engaging Justice of the Peace

We decided last minute to change our wedding plans to include just us and my now husband's mother. I spoke with Susan and immediately knew she was the right person for us. Her warmth and willingness to help in this last minute planning was appreciated. She took the time to get to know our story which was reflected in our intimate ceremony!

Excellent Officiant

Susan worked with us several times ahead of the ceremony to learn about us and really cater the wedding to what we were looking for (secular with some Jewish tradition). She delivered! We had a lovely, intimate ketubah signing before the ceremony and an excellent ceremony that was very "us." We got many compliments afterwards from guests that assumed she had known us for years!

Romance at the library

My husband and I recently got married at the Boston Public Library, and we could not be happier with our experience with Susan as our Justice of the Peace. She worked with us every step of the way to get to know us and make sure that our ceremony was exactly what we wanted it to be. It was heartfelt, intimate, and everything that we were hoping for. We can not recommend Susan enough, and she will be perfect for your wedding ceremony :)

Susan was the most attentive and personable officiant we could have asked for

We had our wedding this June 2025 in Narragansett, Rhode Island. Susan came to us highly recommended, and those recommendations could not have been more accurate.
Susan was professional, flexible, and immediately made it apparent that she cared about our special day and us as a couple. She made clear what she needed from us and checked in at reassuring but non-demanding intervals throughout the months of planning.
She acted with the utmost compassion and respect towards our needs as a couple, from our gender expression to our experience as a same-sex interracial and interfaith marriage. In addition to considering our levels of comfort with religious language and our mixed cultural traditions, Susan genuinely engaged with our love story and our family history.
Guests cried, the ceremony was beautiful, and Susan was incredible presence on the day. We could not give a greater recommendation or more thanks!

Amazing experience with Susan

Susan stepped in last minute to officiate our wedding when our Rabbi was not able to make it. Abby has known her for many years as the cantor of her childhood temple so she was thrilled and had no doubt Susan would make the ceremony incredibly special. In a matter of a days, she met with us, asked great questions, communicated really well and honestly blew us and our wedding guests away with an incredible ceremony. It was a really nice balance of a traditional Jewish ceremony and our voices, and the order of the ceremony gave us space to share our thoughts before she provided a really nice narrative about us that she gleaned from our meetings prior to the wedding. She also did an amazing job with our ketubah signing before the ceremony, all of the family members there cried! We could not be happier with how it went and highly recommend Susan! She is kind, cheerful, caring and thoughtful. You will be lucky to have her officiate your wedding!

Top-notch, fun and professional!

Susan was terrific to work with from the start. We had a tiny, unconventional ceremony drawing from several traditions, and she enthusiastically helped craft a ceremony that reflected both of our backgrounds. She was also great at identifying links between our interests and traditions to help us create something that was uniquely us. She took the time to get to know us and things that are important to us, and incorporated them into a beautiful reading. She was professional all the way, too, helping us navigate the process of getting our marriage paperwork completed smoothly. Highly recommend, 10/10!

Personable and warm

Susan was truly wonderful performing our marriage ceremony. She included in it our vows preferences, the history of our relationship and growth of our feelings toward each other . Her backyard was a beautiful backdrop to the ceremony, and even her small sweet dog welcomed us heart fully. We highly recommend her services done with consideration, inclusion and tolerance!

Beautifully personal ceremony with exceptional care and professionalism

Susan was an absolute blessing as our justice of the peace, and we are beyond grateful for the beautiful ceremony she created for us. From the very beginning, she took the time to understand our vision and brought it to life in a way that felt deeply personal and meaningful. The ceremony, held in the Arnold Arboretum, was everything we hoped for and more.

Susan’s warmth and genuine care shone through in every moment, especially during her reading of a Rumi poem that touched our hearts. Her ability to make the ceremony feel so special and intimate is something we will cherish forever. Our family is still talking about how perfect the day was, thanks to Susan.

Throughout the entire process, she was incredibly responsive and attentive. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day, and having Susan as a part of it was truly a joy. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your special day with the utmost care and professionalism, we wholeheartedly recommend Susan!

Susan is amazing!

Susan was a dream to work with. Upon planning our wedding as an interfaith couple, we were unsure about how we could integrate our different family cultures, religions, and traditions into our wedding ceremony. Susan's expertise and professionalism helped us to create the perfect ceremony that reflected us as a couple and joined together our families, while valuing everyone's backgrounds. Something we also appreciated about Susan was her genuine desire to get to know us as a couple. We had several meetings with her before our wedding day, which helped us become comfortable with each other and helped her get to know us better. Susan was also so easy to contact and answered all of our questions with ease. Not only did we love Susan, but our guests gave us so many compliments on the ceremony and everyone thought it was beautiful. We could not recommend Susan enough!nShe was truly a blessing to work with.
