Perfect!
We used Rabbi Kaplan for our wedding in May 2024. We live in NY and wanted to get married in Florida, so we weren't connected to any Rabbi. We reached out in Florida facebook groups and he came highly recommended by many. We spoke to a few rabbis and chose to go with Rabbi Kaplan since he made us feel the most comfortable, he was super accommodating and cooperative. We loved his vibe and the love we felt through the phone without ever meeting him prior. We felt like we knew each other him for years - that’s the type of guy he is.
Throughout the process, he checked in with us and kept us informed with all the steps we had to take before the wedding. He was also super accommodating with any requests we had to make our ceremony be the way we pictured. We felt comfortable to share our wants/the flavor we wanted without feeling judgement (felt judged from other Rabbis about our wishes/thoughts).
And then on the wedding day, he was absolutely incredible. Our ketubah signing was beautiful - explained the religious aspect behind it but explained it in a way we understood and kept it light and simple. Our ceremony was everything we wanted - beautiful, loving, warm, and to the point. We did our own personal vows with the traditional vows. He was super supportive of that and since that was going to take up a good amount of time of the ceremony, he kept the other parts short and sweet. We couldn’t recommend him enough! Everyone told us how beautiful our ceremony was and we give a lot of that credit to Rabbi Kaplan - he truly set that stage. And we are proud to say we plan to keep a relationship with him post our wedding.
If your questioning who to use, we would recommend setting up a time to meet with him and then you will understood why we chose him! His love and care radiates when you meet him!We used Rabbi Kaplan for our wedding in May 2024. We live in NY and wanted to get married in Florida, so we weren't connected to any Rabbi.

Amazing Rabbi for wedding
We loved working with Rabbi Kaplan. It was great meeting with him before our wedding. He gave very helpful advice. He did an amazing job on the day of our wedding also! He set the tone for a beautiful, personable, and heart warming ceremony. We could not have been happier!We loved working with Rabbi Kaplan. It was great meeting with him before our wedding.

Perfect Blend of Tradition and Personalization - An Unforgettable Ceremony!
We couldn't have asked for a better Rabbi to officiate our wedding! He made our ceremony incredibly personal and beautifully explained all the Jewish traditions, making everyone feel included. During the planning process, he took the time to go through each tradition with us, offering options to incorporate them in either a fully traditional way or with a modern twist that suited our style. He was an absolute pleasure to work with, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. We are so grateful for his warmth, guidance, and the special touch he brought to our day!We couldn't have asked for a better Rabbi to officiate our wedding!

Beautiful ceremony thanks to Rabbi Kaplan - HE IS THE BEST!
We absolutely loved working with Rabbi Kaplan. He made our interfaith ceremony better than we could have imagined. The months leading up to the ceremony he took the time to get to know us as a couple, from how we were raised to what was important to us going into our marriage. During the ceremony he made us feel at ease, brought humor, and made sure to explain everything as he went along to our guests so they felt just as much a part of everything as us. We received so many compliments on how much everyone enjoyed the ceremony and how beautiful it was. We are so happy we had Rabbi Kaplan be apart of our big day and truly can’t say enough great things about him!We absolutely loved working with Rabbi Kaplan.

Amazing!!!
Rabbi Kaplan is truly such an amazing individual, He was so pleasant and understanding of our reform Jewish religion. He was very inclusive throughout the ceremony for those who aren’t. He made the entire experience of getting married not stressful, gave great advice and truly gave a wonderful, beautiful ceremony for us. I couldn’t have imagined this day without him and I can’t wait to use him again in the future for our next life adventures!Rabbi Kaplan is truly such an amazing individual, He was so pleasant and understanding of our reform Jewish religion.

Rabbi Kaplan is the BEST!
We were fortunate enough to have Rabbi Kaplan officiate our wedding this past October 2023. Rabbi Kaplan was included in the preferred vendor list at the Addison and was highly recommended by some of the staff at the Addison. After my first phone call with him, I immediately understood why. He is professional, caring, and compassionate. He led a beautiful wedding ceremony that was well-personalized and incorporated traditions that were important to us. He also added the perfect amount of humor. After the ceremony I had multiple friends approach me to tell me that they had never been to a Jewish wedding before and couldn't believe how beautiful it was. They also commented on how much they loved the Rabbi's personality and jokes. I highly recommend Rabbi Kaplan for your wedding!! If he is available book him trust me you will not regret it!We were fortunate enough to have Rabbi Kaplan officiate our wedding this past October 2023.

A wonderful experience
I am not Jewish (my husband is) and we had a reformed, modern, Jewish wedding.
Rabbi Kaplan was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process! For our initial meeting, he welcomed us into his home and took his time explaining the order of the ceremony, the traditions that would be included, and the meaning behind the Jewish elements. He was very easy-going and open-minded. We also had a couple follow up calls to answer questions and we made some minor changes to the ceremony itself and the ketubah (something that wasn't an issue at all!).
Our wedding and especially our ceremony was absolutely perfect and we couldn’t be more thankful to Rabbi Kaplan. My entire (non-Jewish) family felt very included, and they all told me how much they appreciated how everything was explained through the process and how everyone regardless of religion felt included.
Bottom line, Rabbi Kaplan is a wonderful individual who seems to have all the best qualities of not only a Rabbi but also as a person. He is kind, understanding, wise, respectful and (!!) he has a great sense of humor!

Unforgettable Experience
Rabbi Kaplan officiated our wedding on April 1, 2023. Rabbi Kaplan invested a lot of time in getting to know us over a 9+ month time period, which allowed him to really customize our ceremony. Since this was a same-sex, inter-faith wedding, the Rabbi wanted to make sure that all of the beautiful Jewish traditions, prayers, and symbolism were fully explained to everyone. The result was a perfect ceremony that none of us will ever forget. Every single guest at our wedding said it was the most beautiful wedding ceremony they ever experienced. It was an absolute pleasure working with him and we could not recommend him enough. Our ceremony was uniquely "us" and something we will never forget.Rabbi Kaplan officiated our wedding on April 1, 2023.

Fantastic Destination Wedding Rabbi!
Rabbi Kaplan was wonderful. We're from Michigan and got married in West Palm Beach and he immediately felt like a friend/rabbi we'd known forever. The process was super smooth and he made it so easy for us to communicate with him from afar - zoom calls, emails, etc. We have a 4 1/2 year old and Rabbi Kaplan had some great ideas on how to involve him in the ceremony, and really rolled with it as 4 1/2 year olds can be super unpredictable! He was great - highly recommend!Rabbi Kaplan was wonderful. We're from Michigan and got married in West Palm Beach and he immediately felt like a friend/rabbi we'd known forever.

Perfect Officiant and Advisor
My finance (now wife) and I have a place in Singer Island Florida (long story but over many years visiting Florida we found our Hydra) and wanted to get married there. As this was our second wedding for each of us and we both have large families we wanted to get married on our beach. We did not want to have an event but we wanted something to share with the family so they could enjoy virtually (and so we would make a memory for generations to come). As such, the wedding canopy and video were the key items. But even more essential was my need for an officiant - I am Jewish my wife is not but she is familiar with Jewish events. We were blessed to find our officiant, Rabbi Jonathan Kaplan, from a West Palm Beach wedding guide web page list (both his first and last names caught our fancy) and we have never been so happy to give him a rave review. He was perfect, organized, joyful, full of meaning, understanding our unique story, what more could you ask for. But indeed we ALSO got a bonus as knowing nothing about Palm Beach weddings, Rabbi Kaplan also recommended both the video and design teams: Timeline Video, see its positive review and Events, see their positive review the best around., which Rabbi Kaplan correctly told me were the best around. All in all the event was perfect, thank you Rabbi Kaplan. If you need a caring, committed, compassionate officiant that will make your event personal and unique, go to Rabbi Kaplan!My finance (now wife) and I have a place in Singer Island Florida (long story but over many years visiting Florida we found our Hydra) and wanted to get married there.

Wonderful ceremony thanks to Rabbi Kaplan
Having a good Rabbi was very important to us as we believe the Rabbi’s level of officiating really dictates the overall impression guests take away from a ceremony and we were so glad that Rabbi Kaplan was available to officiate our wedding. We knew he was very highly rated and hard to book and ultimately he was just as advertised. He was super easy to work with and he made the entire process before and during the wedding very joyful and seamless for us. He really took the time to guide us through each step and more importantly he really took effort in getting to know us. He ended up curating a personalized ceremony for us which was perfect and it resulted in a beautiful ceremony. We are forever thankful to Rabbi Kaplan and we are so happy we had him officiate our special day!Having a good Rabbi was very important to us as we believe the Rabbi’s level of officiating really dictates the overall impression guests take away from a ceremony and we were so glad that Rabbi Kaplan was available to officiate our wedding. We knew he was very highly rated and hard to book and ultimately he was just as advertised. He was super easy to work with and he made the entire process before and during the wedding very joyful and seamless for us. He really took the time to guide us through each step and more importantly he really took effort in getting to know us.

Perfect wedding experience!
Rabbi Kaplan couldn’t have done a better job at our wedding. Everything leading up to the wedding went so smoothly as he was very communicative throughout our engagement and really took the time to get to know us in order to make our wedding ceremony unique and special. Rabbi Kaplan was so well prepared and organized, he did a fantastic job making us feel very comfortable under the chuppah. We laughed and really enjoyed his thoughtful words during the ceremony. Thank you Rabbi for this unforgettable experience!!Rabbi Kaplan couldn’t have done a better job at our wedding.

Rabbi JK is amazing!
Rabbi Kaplan helped facilitate our interfaith marriage. He was extremely understanding of both cultures and made sure to incorporate as much of the Jewish marriage ceremony components that we requested. He translated the Hebrew and explained the Jewish traditions to those who were unfamiliar. Highly recommend for interfaith and Jewish marriages. He has a great personality and meets with you before the big day to go over the ceremony and makes sure your requests are heard.Rabbi Kaplan helped facilitate our interfaith marriage.

Wonderful Wedding Experience!
We highly recommend Rabbi Kaplan. He did a wonderful job at our wedding. We received so many compliments from our guests about it being the best Jewish wedding ceremony they have ever been to because of Rabbi Kaplan. Planning for your ceremony can be stressful, but Rabbi Kaplan made it so easy throughout the planning process as well as helping to keep you relaxed during the ceremony.
