Wonderful, Perfect!
Rabbi Roger Ross came highly recommended as an interfaith officiant from Crabtree's Kittle House, and my husband and I could not be happier that we reached out to him to officiate our wedding. He first came all the way to NYC to meet with us and customize our wedding day that represented both Christian and Jewish faiths, and over the summer he even invited us to his home to finalize the wedding ceremony details. He has a wonderful sense of humor and gently reminded us to enjoy the process and look forward to all the incredible memories still to be made ahead. We also very much appreciated his willingness to have us read our own personal vows in addition to the traditional vows. He did a perfect job of blending and unifying both faiths, both in Hebrew and in English. Our family members and friends have said already that our ceremony was the best one they had the privilege of attending. He received so many compliments! We cannot thank him enough!

Fantastic!
Rabbi Ross officiated our wedding a few weeks ago. He was very flexible and willing to take a car 4 hours to our service and back all in one day. We had multiple phone calls and a meeting with him. He was very helpful on guiding us on our interfaith service. All of our guests enjoyed him. We highly recommend him and hope to work with him again in the future!

Kind, Caring, Clear
As soon as we met with Rabbi Ross we knew he would be the one to be our officiant. We felt so comfortable chatting with him. He walked us through the ceremony procedures and gave us options on how we would like our ceremony performed. We kept it short, sweet and meaningful just as we imagined. Rabbi Ross spoke very clearly and was highly complimented by our families. We know that he is now our Rabbi not just for the wedding but for life.

Rabbi Ross is fantastic! He really does mean that his only rules are no sky diving, no scuba diving, and yes to everything else! For our interfaith wedding, Rabbi Ross agreed to combine both aspects of our culture (Jewish and Persian). He allowed us to write a script and stuck to it! He was a great communicator, arrived very early on the day of the event, and helped to make our wedding so successful. If you are looking for a rabbi, especially one who conducts interfaith weddings, I suggest you book Rabbi Ross immediately!!

Rabbi Ross performed an interfaith marriage for us and they were great! The ceremony was light/fun hearted and seamlessly intertwined our Jewish and Catholic faiths. They personalized our ceremony and it was just so special and perfect.

My husband and I are so thankful for Rabbi Ross. He conducted a most special, warm and balanced interfaith ceremony for our wedding. I cannot recommend Rabbi Ross more highly. He managed to seamlessly weave elements of both our faiths, demonstrating similarities and consistencies within both religions. All of my guests made mention of how wonderful Rabbi Ross was.

We were married this past June and Rabbi Ross officiated. I am Jewish and my husband was raised Catholic (but is non-practicing). I wanted a Rabbi to marry us with traditional aspects of a Jewish wedding and my husband really did not want the ceremony to be religious. Rabbi Ross did a combination of both. He took traditional aspects of Judaism and explained their relevance and how all religions shared many components. The ceremony was beautiful and perfect. We were both happy. Rabbi Ross is also funny, comforting and nice to be around. Our guests loved him. I would highly recommend him.

We are so happy we had Rabbi Roger Ross as our rabbi! From our first call, he took us through how the ceremony would flow and was very responsive to any of our questions via phone and emails! He arrived early the day of the wedding and made our Ketubah signing so special. The ceremony itself was very sentimental, had all the traditions but Rabbi Ross also added humor and kept it short and sweet. So many of our family and friends have told us how great it was. We would definitely recommend Rabbi Roger Ross to anyone looking for a rabbi for their wedding!

Rabbi Ross was recommended to us by a close friend and we cannot be happier with our decision. He gave us exactly what we wanted for our inter-faith ceremony. Before we met with him, I was so nervous about the ceremony because I wanted everyone to feel comfortable. Rabbi Ross was calming, funny, easygoing, and accommading and my worries slowly went away. We received so many compliments on our beautiful ceremony and our wonderfully rabbi. It was a pleasure working with Rabbi Ross and would gladly recommend him!
