Rabbi Barry made our wedding truly special

Rabbi Barry made our wedding truly special. We came a long way from Copenhagen, and all our preparations, hopes, and dreams came together magically when Barry conducted the ceremony. He is warm, funny, gentle, and above all he is this marvellous combination of spirituality and intelligence. He made us and all of our guests feel that profoundly during that magical hour at the beach when we got married. Rabbi Barry has got a very deep connection. And may we add that he and his charming wife Linda are just wonderful at meeting people and being present. Thank you so much!

Funny, Sincere, Spiritual, Accepting, Personable, Sweet, THE BEST!!!

We knew within the first couple of minutes of speaking with Rabbi Tuchman that he was our guy. He has this magnetic energy to him that draws you in and makes you love him! He is positive, has a great personality, and is nonjudgmental. It is so obvious that being a rabbi is his calling in life. I am Catholic and my husband is Jewish. Rabbi worked with us to perfectly blend the religions during the ceremony, he was flexible with our requests and he absolutely NAILED the wedding sermon. It wasn't too long and it wasn't too short. He focused on faith, gratitude, our loved ones, the purpose of life and our guests LOVED him. Even the most religious Catholics kept raving about him after the ceremony. Some of our Jewish guests liked him so much that they wanted to see if he delivers sermons at a specific synagogue so them can join to watch him. His words were beautiful during the ceremony, it makes me teary just thinking about it. I am so grateful we chose him and want to spread the word to others so they can have the same amazing experience we did. THANK YOU RABBI!

A Perfect Match

Within minutes of our first conversation we knew Barry was a great fit for us. We chatted about everything from mindfulness to didgeridoo playing and gained an understanding of Barry's fresh and insightful perspective on a Jewish wedding ceremony. Barry brings a very lighthearted but deep and spiritual energy to existing Jewish tradition.

We had an inter-faith wedding and despite many of our guests not being Jewish, he did an incredible job making the Jewish traditions relatable and inclusive for everyone. We received so much great feedback from our guests about how special and unique the ceremony felt. And we may have found a few future clients for Barry as well :)

We went with his custom Ketubah service and the results were amazing. He took inspiration from a lot of meaningful things in our lives and combined them with traditional Jewish ketubah text. We now have a personalized symbolic document and art piece that we will cherish forever.

We had a themed wedding -"Wild West Disco" - and Barry needed no convincing to dress the part. He brought so much joy and levity to our wedding day.
Working with Barry for our wedding felt like working with a long time friend. We feel so lucky to have found Barry.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Doing several events a week, you kind of hear it all. We are, however, always taken by the services that Rabbi Tuchman delivers. Alway provocative, always warm and personal. We often feel that he is a member of the celebrants family.

I Love working with Rabbi Tuchman. Very caring and kind.
