Interfaith Cantor Marc Bachrach

Working with Cantor Marc was one of the best decisions we made in regards to our wedding. We are an interfaith couple but it was important to have an authentic ceremony. He went above and beyond to really get to know us and help us decide what aspects to include or leave out of the ceremony. His voice is incredible and the musicality of the event made it not only unique but that much more spiritual. We elected to have him perform our ketubah signing ceremony the night before the wedding and that was a highlight as well. He had everyone engaged and entertained as well as educated if they weren’t familiar with Jewish traditions. He retold our love story to our family and friends, and even I myself learned facts about how my husband and I came to be together that I didn’t know or had forgotten! He gifted us with DIY Human cards that we’ve already opened and started to use. And we just know he’s not like the other vendors who we may never speak to again. We had a Zoom when we were getting started and his partner hopped on for a moment and told us we were in for the best ceremony, and she wasn’t exaggerating! We are so grateful to Cantor Marc for all the time and effort he put in to make our day special.

Rabbi Marc was the most charismatic charming witty and entertaining Rabbi I've ever seen. He made our wedding so special and had our guests enthralled. He took the time to get to know us and personalized our ketubah signing and our wedding ceremony. He was very original and the ceremony was a hit. All the guests loved our ceremony and even asked for his information for their upcoming weddings. He was by far the best Rabbi we've ever seen. So stop looking at reviews for the best Rabbi and book him now before he is taken. You won't regret it I promise you!!! Thanks Rabbi Marc

Where do we begin? My husband is Jewish, I’m not, and neither of us are particularly religious. We were looking for an officiant who could help us incorporate Jewish traditions into our ceremony, but also give us free reign to tweak and customize to our heart’s content. Cantor Marc was all of that, and more.

In our planning meetings with him, Cantor Marc went above and beyond. He walked us through each element of the ceremony, let us pick and choose what – and how – we wanted those elements to show up, didn’t fire us when we waited until the last minute to get our Ketubah and wedding license, and was genuinely just a pleasure to work with. We felt like we’d known him forever before our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner.

During our ketubah ceremony at our rehearsal dinner, there wasn’t a dry eye in the room. He surprised us with some additions to our ketubah vows that were so special and intimate, and even came to the entire rehearsal itself to make sure we both fully knew what to expect.

As for the ceremony itself, there are simply no words. I could go on and on, but I’ll leave it at two pieces of feedback from our guests: First, I’ve never been to a wedding where guests complimented the ceremony, but even months later, our family and friends are constantly talking about how wonderful Cantor Marc and our ceremony were. Our most macho manly guy friend was sobbing in the back row. And second, my father – traditional, conservative Southern guy – walked up to Cantor Marc after the ceremony and said “Man, maybe I should convert!”

We were absolutely honored to have Cantor Marc stay for our entire reception. When we woke up the morning after the wedding, we were treated to an entire Google Photo Album not just of the rehearsal dinner and Ketubah signing, but of hundreds and HUNDREDS of behind the scenes photos from our wedding – everything from family portraits to our special dances and the cake cutting. Having those photos to tide us over until the professional ones were in was so special and touching and truly above and beyond anything we could have expected.

I really can’t thank Cantor Marc enough. We both get a little weepy when we think about how special, loving and supportive he was from start to finish. We would recommend Cantor Marc to anyone and everyone, from the bottom of our hearts.
