RevDeb is amazing!

RevDeb is truly an incredible person and made our wedding ceremony absolutely perfect. She was actually the first thing I booked after my husband and I got engaged. We attended 2 wedding that she officiated and walked away both times saying, when it is our turn we want to book her. My husband and I had an interfaith wedding and wanted to make sure that our ceremony included small aspects of both religions, but most importantly told our story. Revdeb meets with you as soon as you book her to get to know you as individuals and a couple. The reasons she does this is to create a beautiful story of your relationship to share with your guests. Revdeb made our ceremony so special and intimate, yet funny and enjoyable to be a part of. All of my guests raved about how she led an incredible ceremony and I feel so lucky that we were able to have her as a part of our wedding. I truly cannot say enough about how amazing she was.

Thank you, Rev Deb!

When looking for an officiant it was important for my wife and I to feel connected to the person leading the ceremony, as we wanted to entrust our union to someone who was able to portray it accurately. Rev Deb was professional, easy going, and incredibly sweet and collaborative. The process before the ceremony was great, as she made all the edits we requested. Day of, the ceremony was one of my favorite parts, in large part due to Deb. She was well spoken and her words were so beautiful, it was so memorable. So many of my guests came up and RAVED about the ceremony, not just about my wife and I, but about Deb and how beautifully she led the service. I would highly recommend and cannot thank her enough.

Excellent!

Rev Deb recently officiated our interfaith wedding. From the beginning Rev Deb had such a great energy and her attention to detail was much appreciated. She created a beautiful ceremony combining my Jewish traditions with my husbands Catholic traditions and made everyone feel included. Our guests raved about what a beautiful ceremony it was, and we could not have asked for a better ceremony or officiant!
