Rabbi Sara Shonfeld is a wedding GURU!! Her personality and cheerfulness throughout the entire wedding process has made me feel the most excited about our Jewish ceremony! She is so kind, caring, thoughtful and light-hearted! Her professionalism and attention to detail was immaculate in every way. Our guests RAVED about how beautiful and intimate our ceremony was and the highlight being Rabbi Shonfeld! She made us laugh, cry and gave us the ceremony of our dreams :). One of my favorite moments was during the Ketubah signing where she sang beautiful and fun traditional Jewish songs where we laughed and danced. She also kept in touch with us after the wedding and now we are close friends! I can't wait to include her for all our future endeavors as she is truly a blessed and special person. Thank you Rabbi for all that you have done for us! WE LOVE YOU!! Love, The Rubin's

Interfaith ceremony 5/6/2023
Rabbi Sara and Rev Deb Viola were both equally amazing ! My husband and I had an interfaith ceremony as my husband is Catholic and I am Jewish. Rabbi Sara and Rev Deb work so well together and knew exactly how to seamlessly blend both of our religions. Communication between all parties was great and always received quick responses, was ready to answer any questions we had even if they were silly. They were both punctual and explained everything to use prior to the ceremony and addressed any additional questions we had. Communication even after the wedding was great ! I highly recommend both Rabbi Sara or Rev Deb for any future event you may have. You will most certainly not be disappointed.

Wonderful!
Rabbi Sara married my husband and I in February of this past year. We had so many people come up
to us in our cocktail hour to compliment about just how beautiful and meaningful the ceremony was and even tell us that they had never witnessed a ceremony like ours. Rabbi Sara’s way of explaining exactly how the ceremony would flow months before the wedding put us at ease. She goes over every detail , minute by minute. She is very responsive via email and offers wonderful advise and guidance. There were so many special and meaningful elements put into our ceremony. My husband is catholic and I am Jewish. The way she created and outlined the ceremony to touch upon some of the religious traditions we both wanted on our wedding day will forever be cherished. We are eternally grateful to Rabbi Sara for everything she did for us to make our wedding ceremony as special as it was! We can’t wait to work with Rabbi Sara again !
