I highly recommended Rabbi Alan Stein for your wedding. He is genuinely kind, knowledgeable and he takes the time to get to know you personally and create a timeline through the ceremony by mentioning everything special and important. Our friends said it was one of the most warm and loving ceremonies. I love his ability to blend traditional elements and take all of the most meaningful moments that we discussed previously in his speech so personal! He clearly focused on making the wedding seem so unique. In addition, his beautiful singing voice sets him above other Rabbis!

Rabbi Stein - Wonderful Officiant!

From our very first meeting, it was a pleasure to work with Rabbi Stein. He laid out exactly how our ceremony was going to proceed, and he made us feel at ease in terms of asking questions and making adjustments. Rabbi Stein was in complete control throughout the entire process, up to and including the ceremony, and his sense of humor and depth of knowledge enriched our special day immeasurably. During the ceremony, his speech about us captured the essence of who we are as a couple and gave us the opportunity to reflect on our relationship. We strongly recommend Rabbi Stein as an officiant for anyone's wedding day!

Lovely ceremony

Rabbi Stein officiated our wedding last month. It was a great experience working with him. We met with him twice through Facetime. He was easy to talk to. Rabbi Stein was accommodating to our hectic schedule. He geared the ceremony to our preferences allowing to choose which components to include or omit from the ceremony. On wedding day, Rabbi Stein arrived early and he was highly professional. The ceremony was funny and endearing. Our guests had many nice things to say about him. Would highly recommend.

We asked Rabbi Stein to officiate our interfaith wedding and it was everything we could have asked for. He came very prepared, arrived at least an hour before the ceremony, and was extremely patient with us, our families and the weather which was less than ideal. He included a perfect balance of Hebrew and non-Hebrew which catered to my Jewish family and my wife's Catholic family. All of our guests commented that he did an outstanding job balancing tradition and a little comedic relief. We would definitely recommend Rabbi Stein and are grateful for the memories he gave us.

My husband and I used Rabbi Stein to officiate our wedding. We were in search of a flexible rabbi, as we are of different faiths, and stumbled upon his reviews on various wedding websites. We met with Rabbi Stein twice prior to our wedding – once to discuss logistics, and another time to get to know us as a couple. He is very open, personable, and a night balance of sentiment and humor. These qualities all showed through during the ceremony – he was able to crack a few light-hearted jokes, while keep the ceremony serious and sweet. We even had a rain scare, which caused us to push the ceremony up and speed it up a bit, which he did seemingly with ease. We got many compliments afterwards on what a beautiful ceremony it was.

Rabbi Stein was recommended to me by another interfaith couple who used his services. Finding a Rabbi who would perform a Jewish ceremony in a mixed marriage with such ease and comfort was difficult. Rabbi Stein made us feel extremely comfortable from the first time we met him. He listened to each request we had, provided suggestions, and was extremely flexible. He was also very responsive, and easy to schedule time with. He never made us feel rushed or pushed any ideas on us and the actual ceremony was amazing. We got many compliments on what a beautiful ceremony we had. It was to the point, loving, traditional, and had a little bit of humor/personalization in it thanks to the Rabbi's words. I would highly recommend him to any couple looking for an officiant of any sorts.

Rabbi Stein did a phenomenal job at my wedding.

My wife and I are of different faiths and he did a great job seamlessly blending the two.

Our original rabbi had a conflict and we had to find a new person that we liked 2 weeks from our wedding day...

As time was short, rabbi Stein ended up skyping (google hangouts) with my wife and I which made our lives much easier. We got a good feel for him and his personality. On top of this, the "fee" is actually a donation to his synagogue which we liked even more.

We had quite a windy wedding day and rabbi Stein rolled with it and was truly entertaining. He turned a typical boring ceremony into one that has some humor, was engaging, and something everyone will truly remember.

I received many compliments about him after the wedding. They said how professional he was, funny, and concise. The ceremony did not drag on which was nice.

Oh I almost forgot to mention, he is kind enough to provide a Ketubah and he has a portable Chuppah if need be all free of charge. Other rabbi's charge for this which of course makes sense, but rabbi Stein does not!

I very highly recommend you reach out to him if you either need a traditional wedding or an interfaith one such as I did.

Tell him Geoff and Melissa sent you!

My son was married in an interfaith service where Rabbi Stein officiated, along with a priest.
We were very pleased with the service. Not only was the ceremony a beautiful blending of the two faiths, but Rabbi Stein and the other officiate worked so well off of each other that it was as if they had done this together all of the time.
It was probably the best interfaith service I have ever seen. Our friends and family are still talking about it. People have said that the Rabbi and Priest should "take their show on the road." The ceremony had the right mix of Catholic/Jewish and seriousness/humor. We couldn't have asked for more for our son and his new bride.

Rabbi Stein officiated at our wedding and we were extremely happy with the ceremony. We met with him a couple of times beforehand to discuss what we wanted, and Rabbi Stein truly delivered. He included just the right amount of Jewish and Catholic rituals and just the right amount of humor. Many of our guests came up to us and complimented us on our Rabbi, saying how beautiful the ceremony was and yet at the same time funny. We found Rabbi Stein online and it was one of the best decisions we made in the wedding planning process. Highly recommended.

I found Rabbi Stein online and, boy, am I glad. He is very flexible and has a great sense of humor. He met with us twice before the wedding and was very personable and understanding.

This rabbi will go out of his way for you and is worth every penny for his time. He was a big hit at my wedding because he has done other wedding of my guests!

I highly recommend Rabbi Stein.
