Sweet and lovely ceremony

We were confident Deborah was the wedding officiant we wanted after our initial Zoom meeting with her. She has such wonderful energy and is so nice and pleasant. She kept in touch with us throughout the preparation phase and helped us create a lovely ceremony, just as we had dreamed about it. I definitely recommend her to anyone!

Amazing officiant!

Debby did an amazing job. From our first Zoom meeting with her months before our wedding, to email communication that was thorough and very quick, to worksheets and suggestions to help us make sure we had the ceremony we were wanting - we could tell she was invested in making sure our ceremony was just right for us. Debby was helpful, flexible, responsive and so easy to work with. The end result was a lovely ceremony that incorporated some religious traditions of our choosing, singing, readings and more. We would highly recommend Debby to anyone!

Deborah Davis is who you want to marry you. She is loving, thoughtful, kind, funny and generous. When we were looking for someone to marry us for our Jewish Wedding, the moment I found Debby, I knew she would be perfect. From 2021-2022 Debby hosted numerous zoom calls with us, communicated through email and text and was extremely kind and compassionate. On the day of our wedding Debby officiated the most incredible ceremony. She was absolutely a pleasure to work with and I recommend her to anyone and everyone!

Such a beautiful person!

After our first zoom meeting with Deborah we knew hands down she was who we wanted to officiant our wedding. She is so kind and personable, such a great energy. She touched base with us throughout the planning process and assisted in customizing a beautiful ceremony. We wanted to add in some non traditional elements (Like hand fasting) She was knowledgeable and had resources and readings for us to go through. It felt like having a close friend at the ceremony, would 10/10 recommend her services to anyone in need of an amazing officiant.

Wonderful!

We loved working with Debby! She created a unique and personal ceremony for us that incorporated some traditional Jewish elements into a secular wedding, which made the day incredibly special. Our guests and families all raved about how well the ceremony captured our relationship and how personal it felt. We were nervous about working with an officiant we didn’t know, but Debby made the process easy and we couldn’t be happier with how everything came together. She attended our rehearsal the day before and met our families and coordinator, which helped everything run smoothly on the day. She also included thoughtful touches like sending us home with a printed copy of our ceremony and having our witnesses sign the customer copy of the marriage license for us to take home. It was so fun to get to know her and to have her be part of our wedding experience. We cannot recommend her enough!

Great Officiant!

Deborah was amazing. She exceeded our expectations and was always very prompt to any contact we had with her in getting back to us. She helped us design our wedding vows and gave us advice on how to structure the ceremony. Was an absolute pleasure from the very beginning and dealing with her and I highly recommend her! Deborah brought her own table cloth and materials for our special needs for the sand ceremony etc. thank you thank you thank you!!!

The best wedding we could have wished for

Debby has been amazing throughout our journey in planning this from England. She has been really flexible, her communication excellent, she sent through some great suggestions to incorporate into our ceremony but most importantly to us is that she is a really warm and lovely lady who took the time to get to know us and our story. We highly recommend Debby and know that if you involve her in your plans, your day will be as special as ours was.

Beautiful ceremony

Debby was the best officiant we could have asked for. She very seamlessly incorporated some atypical cultural traditions into a "typical" wedding ceremony. She also takes time to learn about a couple and was very flexible in incorporating our thoughts and ideas. You can't go wrong with Debby!

Wonderful Experience for our Beautiful Day

This review is a long time coming. Debby affiliated our wedding ceremony on July 13, 2019. From the first day we met Debby we knew she was the one and we had to look no further or interview anyone else. She has such a warm presence about her. She made my wife and I feel very comfortable
and helped us figure out the how we wanted to have our ceremony. She was very professional and we never had to worry about a thing. I would highly suggest using her.
Much thanks Debby for all you did.
