We loved Rabbi Larry!

Rabbi Larry was fantastic in performing a symbolic wedding ceremony for my parents' 50 years anniversary as they never had a chance to have a Jewish wedding in the former USSR. Rabbi Larry met with us several times virtually before the event and then drove 2.5 hours in SoCal traffic to do our family event. I cannot recommend Rabbi Larry enough -- he is friendly and jovial and professional and a pleasure to know and meet.

Rabbi Larry is the best

Rabbi Larry was the perfect Rabbi for our ceremony. My wife and I got married this month and Rabbi Larry worked with us over the past year, and really took the time to get to know us. He helped us tailor the service so it was the perfect blend of personal and religious.

He communicated regularly with us and we felt super prepared on the day of our wedding.

Whatever your level of faith, Rabbi Larry is a great choice, particularly for those looking to tailor the experience themselves. I highly recommend him!

Excellent Wedding Service

Rabbi Larry was very thorough in getting to know my wife and I in preparation for our wedding ceremony. I am not very religious and my wife is not Jewish, but I wanted to honor my Jewish background in our wedding ceremony. Rabbi Larry was very flexible about the options to include for our service. He did a great job creating a beautiful ceremony that honored both our family backgrounds, and we included items from my great grandparents in the ceremony which made for a nice touch. Thank you Rabbi!

Wonderful Rabbi

Rabbi Larry was great to work with! We were very happy with how thoughtful and pleasant he was to meet with during the planning process. He was very flexible, we wanted to have our ceremony on Saturday during the day which he was willing to do. He took the time to get to know us and shared some wonderful personal stories during the ceremony--we even got lots of compliments from our guests about how great of a job Rabbi Larry did officiating our ceremony. Highly recommend Rabbi Larry!

Wonderful rabbi and ceremony

Rabbi Larry performed our beautiful ceremony at Five Crowns on November 4, 2022. He was extremely detailed and met with us several times to make sure he understood us as a couple. Ceremony it was very special and personalized just for us!

A considerate, intelligent, and accepting Rabbi - a perfect match

We are so glad that we chose Rabbi Larry to officiate our wedding. What made this such a great match for us was that the Rabbi was open to our own interpretation of the traditional Jewish ceremony, working with us to adapt anything we needed to fit our own values. Being a LGBTQ+ interfaith marriage, this was incredibly important to us!

From there, Rabbi Larry was extraordinary in his guidance - both in creating the ceremony and prepping us for marriage. He was easy to work with over the past year, and always available for questions/contact/meetings when we needed him. Lastly, Rabbi Larry is truly such a warm and wonderful person. We felt so lucky to have him included in our wedding day. We hope to work together again soon.

Personal and wonderful ceremony!

Rabbi Larry was the perfect choice for our wedding! My husband was raised Jewish, and I converted later in life. It was important for us to have our ceremony in both Hebrew and English, as well as having aspects of our ceremony explained to our guests who were unfamiliar with a Jewish ceremony. We wanted it to be enjoyable for everyone, and Rabbi Larry made sure that was the case! He included personal antidotes about us as a couple which made it even more special. He was very flexible with our pre-ceremony meetings being virtual due to COVID, and had no problem with any last minute adjustments. He offered great insight and advice throughout the planning process, and assured us our ceremony would be exactly what we envisioned. He is a wonderful Rabbi and we would highly recommend him to all!

Rabbi Larry is the best!

Rabbi Larry did the most wonderful job performing the Ketubah ceremony at our interfaith wedding. He was professional, poignant, warm and funny! We couldn't have asked for anyone better. Thank you Rabbi!

Rabbi Larry was absolutely wonderful!

We feel so lucky to have found Rabbi Larry. He made such an impact on the best day of our lives and we could not be more grateful for him. We come from two large families of different faiths, and Rabbi Larry along with our other officiant were able to really personalize our ceremony for us to make a memorial ceremony that everyone loved. Prior to the wedding we had couples counseling with him where he really took the time to get to know us and even our families. By the time our big day came, Rabbi Larry, his wife Linda, and their dog Nava were practically family to us. We are so grateful that Rabbi Larry came into our lives and we couldn’t recommend him any more!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
