About

As an ordained Reform Rabbi, I offer truly personalized and inclusive Jewish wedding ceremonies for all couples - Jewish, interfaith, multi-cultural, LGBTQ+. I specialize in working *with* couples to create powerful, positive, memorable, and meaningful Jewish experiences that everyone can connect to.

While I am based in Rochester, NY and the Associate Rabbi at Temple B'rith Kodesh, I am available to travel and often do pre-marital meetings online or on the phone. My standard process involves a minimum of three set meetings prior to the ceremony to enable me to get to know each couple and each couple to feel comfortable and confident that their ceremony will be exactly what they're dreaming for it.

If you are looking for a warm, inclusive, Jewish ceremony that truly represents who you are as a couple, I would love to work with you to create it!

Couldn’t have asked for a Rabbi more perfect for our day!

We are beyond grateful that we found Rabbi Rochelle. Working with her from a far and in a town we were unfamiliar with the community, she immediately made us feel so welcomed and prepared. Each step along the way she made it smooth AND fun. The ceremony was nothing but beautiful and to this day, we still have guests raving about how great our Rabbi was. We couldn’t be happier :)

We love Rabbi Rochelle!

Rabbi Rochelle was the wedding officiant of our dreams. My husband and I had an interfaith wedding on a Saturday, so we had a hard time finding a rabbi to officiate, but Rabbi Rochelle wasn’t just willing to do it—she was excited! From the very first meeting we had with her, we knew we were in good hands. She’s kind, funny, open-minded, has wonderful energy, and asks great questions. She made me feel welcome and comfortable as a non-Jewish person, and she worked with us to create a ceremony that incorporated Jewish traditions and other things (like readings and a song) that felt meaningful to us. She was super responsive to our questions and special requests, and she was just wonderful to work with as we were planning.

Our ceremony was very important to us and the part of our wedding day that we looked forward to the most, and she made it so much better than we could have dreamed. Her words and the energy she created in the room were so deeply moving and joyful, and it felt simultaneously very ceremonious and very comfortable and intimate. We laughed, we cried (a lot), and we felt comfortable being our full selves. So many of our guests remarked on how special the ceremony was, and one told us that he had never seen a couple enjoy their wedding ceremony so much. It was just spectacular. Can't recommend her enough!

Wonderful, personal ceremony

Rochelle did a great job! She met with us three times before the wedding, and it showed, our ceremony was personal, and felt intimate and 'us'. (Several guests reported they cried). Also, the meetings were a lovely way for us to discuss our plans for navigating the future as an interfaith couple (as well as learn more about Jewish wedding traditions), and we both felt respected and welcomed by her.

Beyond that, she was a lovely vendor to work with. She was very responsive and answered all our questions quickly, and on the hectic but wonderful day she was a calming presence that was deeply appreciated. Overall, cannot speak highly enough of her.

Wedding officiant

Rabbi Rochelle was such an important part of our wedding. She did an amazing job with the ceremony. It was so meaningful, poignant, and personal. She made both of us feel comfortable and at ease under the chuppah. We have had many loved ones tell us how much they enjoyed the ceremony and a few even say it was the best wedding ceremony they’ve ever seen. We’ve received a lot of compliments about how well She did! We can’t thank her enough for making the whole process leading up to our wedding so wonderful. We truly enjoyed getting to know her and we hope to stay in touch!

Truly Awesome Experience

From our initial meeting up to the ceremony, our experience with Rabbi Rochelle was exceptional. She is intelligent, fun, and thought-provoking. With her guidance, we made choices regarding the ceremony's structure that aligned with our values, reflected our relationship perfectly, and brought depth and quality to our ceremony. Rabbi Rochelle made our wedding day special because she took the time to truly get to know us - seamlessly incorporating that knowledge into our day.

Incredible Experience with Rabbi Rochelle!

We had the privilege of having Rabbi Rochelle officiate our wedding in November of 2022. She spent tons of time getting to know us, and was an amazing component to our special day. Of note, Rabbi Rochelle listened to exactly what we wanted to do and she programmed the ceremony accordingly. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to officiate theirs.

Rabbi Tulik Was a Wonderful Addition To Our Special Day

We were referred to Rabbi Tulik from a mutual connection and she was so easy to work with. The ceremony was extremely flexible and we had numerous sessions to get to know each other and our values + expectations. Since our wedding a few months ago, we've heard from more than half a dozen guests how nice and personal the ceremony was that she officiated!

Wonderful, memorable ceremony

Rabbi Tulik met with us multiple times throughout the wedding planning process and patiently guided us through designing a ceremony that was both meaningful and truly heartfelt. Her genuinely warm and caring nature put us at ease as my husband and I navigated this journey together. Our ceremony felt intimate, full of emotions (positively verklempt!), and one of a kind, and we thank Rabbi Tulik for officiating just the perfect wedding for us.

Rabbi Rochelle created the interfaith wedding of our dreams! :)

My husband and I were very lucky to stumble upon Rabbi Rochelle's profile online. Admittedly, we never met her prior to looking for someone to officiate our wedding, but from our first meeting it felt super natural and Tom and I knew we found our person! Rabbi Rochelle was our first and last officiant meeting because we knew it felt right (even over zoom). Our first meeting was super relaxed and fun. I am the Jewish one in our couple and my husband is not very religious but has a catholic background. Having a Jewish ceremony was important to me, but we also wanted to make sure that the wedding represented both of us. We met with Rabbi Rochelle 3 times prior to the ceremony and she really took the time to get to know us and what was important to us. She gave us homework that was actually fun (mostly questions about each other and how we met, etc.). We later shared the answers with each other and discussed them at one of our next meetings. We went through the ceremony and the parts of a typical Jewish ceremony, but there was no pressure to include anything. We essentially got to choose our own adventure. She made sure we were both comfortable with every bit of the ceremony. I can truly say that I looked forward to our meetings because it felt like we were working together to create this amazing ceremony that was just for us. Both my husband and I agree that the ceremony was our favorite part of the entire day. It felt relaxed, intimate and special just for the two of us. Also Rabbi Rochelle made sure to explain the meaning behind all of the rituals to people who were unfamiliar and everyone thought it was a lovely ceremony that was easy to follow! We also included a unity candle as part of our ceremony as a nod to my husband's catholic family traditions. I could not be happier with the experience of working with Rabbi Rochelle and because we are local we will definitely continue to stay in touch with her and hope to join her congregation in the future.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
