    Wonderful experience and amazing ceremony!

    We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Rabbi Steve. My husband is Jewish and I am not, and he was so welcoming and collaborative in crafting our ceremony. We got to know him well in the year leading up to the wedding, and we really felt like he knew us and our relationship when the big day arrived. We had a perfect ceremony and are so grateful that we were able to work with Rabbi Steve.

    Beautiful multi faith LGBTQ+ wedding

    Rabbi Finley was a calming force throughout the wedding planning process and took real time to get to know us as a couple and integrate that knowledge into a warm and personal ceremony. I am Christian and my husband is Jewish. Rabbi Finley helped us plan a Jewish ceremony that touched the heart of my Christian family.
