An amazing experience. Rabbi Laurie was caring and took her time to get to know us before our special day.

Rabbi Laurie was met to be our Rabbi, after looking around for several months. We found the person who explained the process and set up expectations for us. We were so blessed to have her be part of our special day. We highly recommend her to be next to you on your special day.

Beautiful and personal ceremony

Everything was a dream come true. My wife and I chatted with the Rabbi quite a bit before the wedding, and it really felt like she put her personal touch on it. We were able to pick and guide toward what we wanted, and everything was perfect. I can't imagine having a better ceremony. Would HIGHLY recommend her

Queer COVID Wedding

We knew rabbi Laurie from years ago when she was at a different synagogue. When we decided to have a Jewish wedding, we knew we wanted her as our rabbi. We were right!
Rabbi Laurie understands our family, including our parents. She gets us as trans people, as a couple and as parents in a pandemic.

When she hugged our son, he wouldn’t let go of Rabbi Laurie. We all love her!
