Our Special Day; Thank you Rabbi Tobin 😊 ❤️

I cannot thank Rabbi Dennis Tobin enough for the exceptional service he provided for my wedding. From the very beginning, Rabbi Tobin demonstrated both professionalism and care, assuring us that our ceremony would be deeply meaningful and tailored to reflect our unique story.

What truly stood out was his dedication to getting to know us personally, allowing us to incorporate cherished family and cultural traditions into the ceremony. Rabbi Tobin’s punctuality and preparation were impeccable. He arrived early to help us take photos, sign the Ketubah and wedding license, and worked well with the other vendors. His calm and organized demeanor allowed us to enjoy every moment without worry.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Rabbi Tobin. His warmth, professionalism, and ability to create a meaningful and joyous ceremony were unparalleled. I wholeheartedly recommend Rabbi Tobin to anyone seeking a Rabbi or wedding officiant who will go above and beyond to make their day extraordinary.

Thank you so much Rabbi! Love Dawn and Victor ❤️

Rabbi Tobin is wonderful!

Rabbi Tobin was absolutely phenomenal. He made our wedding feel personal and warm. The ceremony was absolutely flawless and the attention to detail he puts into his work was noticed by all. Rabbi Tobin really, truly knows how to execute all aspects of a wedding! He not only went out of his way to answer our seemingly endless questions but he asked the right questions, made us feel at ease throughout the process, and ensured us that we would have no stress the day of the wedding, and he delivered. We cannot express enough for the outstanding job our rabbi did from the first inquiry to the day of, and everything in between. I think once of the greatest assets he provides is his ability and commitment to truly remembering the details, personalizing and emphasizing what is most important to us on the day of. I had informed Rabbi Tobin that my father had passed, and the care he put into honoring my father and bringing his presence to our wedding day was exceptional. He also made it a point to include our family members throughout our ceremony in a way that was so meaningful and something we will always remember. We will call Rabbi Tobin forever, for any major event, life circumstances, or even just to check in! He is now a part of our family.

Wedding Officiant

Both Rabbi Tobin and Father John made our interfaith ceremony one to remember forever. They were a great team and performed a beautiful ceremony. Rabbi Tobin did a great job coordinating everything for us.

Wonderful!

We had a last minute change and Rabbi Tobin came in and just nailed it! He was so helpful, enthusiastic, knowledgable and fun! He also saved us by thinking of literally EVERYTHING that we needed for our ceremony and even brought extra print-outs of speeches, candle holders and anything we needed. He worked very well with our Priest for our interfaith ceremony and made everything run smoothly for our special day. Thank you so much, Rabbi Tobin!

Added a little much needed amusement to our ceremony!

Rabbi Tobin was exactly what we needed for our wedding day. My husband is Jewish so we had to have a Rabbi and a Pastor since I am Methodist. I was so nervous about the whole ceremony coming together but it was absolutely perfect, our guests are still commenting about how nice it all was. The Pastor and Rabbi worked so well together it seemed like they have been friends for years. If you are looking for a Rabbi, Rabbi Tobin is the way to go.

you get more than your moneys worth!

what a hoot this guy is, but super professional. He stayed on top of us through the whole process, told us what we needed to accomplish and when right down to attaining the marriage license. He walked us through how to purchase a ketubah and what we should put on it. Day of he showed up early, set up the ceremony space, chased down the witnesses for marriage license signing, walked us through how to get our certified copies, ate some cocktail hour and left. The ceremony was hilarious and he made sure to print our self written vows in large print so we could read easily. Only downside was that he doesn’t conduct a rehearsal, preferring to guide you through the ceremony as its happening, but it worked out super well and I didn’t feel like a rehearsal was at all necessary. Friends were approaching me afterward for hid info for future celebrations! Highly recommend. 10/10 stars!

Rabbi Tobin is Terrific!

Rabbi Tobin was a huge help and relief during wedding planning. My husband and I met with Rabbi Tobin in person and a few times over the phone prior to our wedding day. He made us feel comfortable with his service, our venue and the plan on our actual wedding day. We never questioned his preparation, and he made it very clear that he's done this MANY times before. Most importantly he made a game day decision to sign our Ketubah during the ceremony, when pictures ran way longer than scheduled. His calm demeanor, made this the best part of the day. Everyone was fine with this decision and many of our guests commented on how sweet and personal it was to have us sign the ketubah as part of our ceremony. Rabbi Tobin is very conscious of the time, and this meant so much to us. The wedding ceremony is the most important part of the wedding day, and he made sure that this was the case. I highly recommend Rabbi Tobin as part of your wedding plans.

Incredibly captivating

Rabbi Tobin was our officiant on 11/30/18 and I could not have pictured my wedding ceremony any differently. Since first contacting Rabbi Tobin, he was EXTREMELY helpful and full of advise for our wedding day. I have to admit I was slightly hesitant with having my wedding officiated by a Rabbi, as my husband is catholic and we are not the most religious, but Rabbi Tobin made the ceremony absolutely perfect and suiting for the both of us. He speaks so eloquently and had our entire room captivated the entire time. Most ceremonies guests admit they don't remember much, however not ours. We have had nothing but nice words from all of our guests on a beautiful ceremony and not a dry eye in the room, including myself. Rabbi Tobin, thank you so much for making this day so perfect and I could not have asked for anyone better to officiate our wedding. I am so appreciative for all you have done for us and I am so happy to have had you as such a huge part of our day!!!!

Feeling Blessed

Rabbi Tobin came as a recommendation from a bridal Facebook page when I was trying to find a Rabbi willing to perform a ceremony in a church along with a priest. Originally I just wanted the glass breaking part but after talking to Rabbi Tobin he assured me that doing a full joint ceremony would be the right way to go and he was correct. I can’t thank him enough for coming into my wedding almost last minute and making it feel like he was part of it from the start.
