When my wife and I set out to find an officiant for our wedding, we thought we had not only a tall order, but an impossible one. We actually thought that given what/who we were looking for, that we might have to hire two separate people to perform different parts of our ceremony. It was important to us that our ceremony have traditional Jewish elements, be queer and feminist, connect us to earth-based sprituality, and be witchy. When we first met with Rebekah to see if she would be a fit, we couldn't believe that we found someone who we both connected with and who understood all the elements of what we were hoping to weave together.

Rebekah was generous with her time, taking care to get to know us and learn about our love and our relationship, ways we have struggled, and the ways we have grown. She crafted a ceremony that truly reflected who are separately, as a couple, and as part of a community we hope to support and be supported by. As we were, our guests too were moved and touched by our ceremony and by Rebekah's ability to weave together our values, our families, Jewish tradition, and a connection to the natural world.

Rebekah is also simply a wonderful, kind, reassuring, and warm person-- which made it all the more pleasant (especially for two shy people) to go through the process of creating a ceremony together and ultimately getting up together in front of a ton of people we love. She also ran a rehearsal the day before our wedding which was really helpful in making the day itself run smoothly. Her presence on the day of the wedding, even aside from officiating the ceremony, was calming and protective in the most perfect way. If you are looking for an officiant who will listen to your wishes and artfully help you create a ceremony that reflects who you are, I very highly recommend Rebekah.

Spend time with Rebekah, and you will see for yourself what a warm, present, inspiring, generous person she is. My daughter and her partner hired Rebekah and could not have been happier with the relationship they developed with her. As the mom of one of the brides, I was thrilled about their choice and felt very connected with Rebekah as well.

Rebekah was instrumental in helping my partner and I with ideas for writing our own vows. Her guidance gave us a jumping off point to get our minds and hearts aligned in bringing to life our vows. We had a pagan hand fasting ceremony, which Rebekah was amazing at taking the reigns as our officiant. We worked together on crafting the ceremony and she met with us to make sure we were feeling good about the direction of the service. Our ceremony was beautiful and I will never forget how quickly Rebekah helped us to create an unforgettable ritual, tying in our closest friends and family. I'm so happy Rebekah was our officiant! She was warm, kind and supportive!
