  We were so happy that Laurie co-officiated our wedding! We had the privilege of getting to know her over the months leading up to our wedding and she is lovely and easy to get along with. She was very flexible and open to honoring our interfaith traditions and customs in our ceremony. She was also super communicative about our wants and needs and made sure that our ceremony was a personal reflection of us as a couple.

  Rabbi Laurie was great to work with for our recent wedding. I found her online after much searching for the right rabbi to co-officiate our interfaith (Jewish/Catholic) ceremony. She was very open with us and definitely put our minds at ease about what we could make happen for our ceremony, as we were a little apprehensive about combining traditions in ways that felt comfortable and genuine. She sent us a beautiful sample ceremony after we met, already including many things we had discussed. She was totally open to changes we made and questions we had. She showed genuine interest in us and our families, and we got a million compliments on our ceremony, many people saying it was the most beautiful and unique ceremony they'd seen. We are so happy that we decided to work with Rabbi Laurie!

  Rabbi Gold was incredibly engaged in making the wedding everything we could have wanted. Several meetings, discussions and planning led to by most peoples' accounts one of, if not the best weddings they had ever been to.

  Rabbi Gold performed a flawless, sweet service and was great to work with. She was very flexible and accommodating and inspired us to write our own vows and even tweaked the religious portion of the service so it expressed our own feelings about marriage. She was very professional, a great value, and I would recommend her to anyone.

  Laurie was the perfect officiant for our weddings ceremony. She incorporated old and new traditions. Laurie caitored to our personal life with excerpts from our own writings and readings from family members. She is a dear friend and I am so thankful that she married me and the love of my life!

  Rabbi Laurie Gold was wonderful in helping us have the personal, meaningful ceremony we wanted for our wedding. She was recommended by a cantor we knew; we didn't have any connection with her before we started planning our wedding. We currently live in Seattle, and our wedding was in NYC, so we mostly met via Skype or phone, sometimes at odd hours, to plan the ceremony. Laurie was very accommodating about working that way, and great about building a personal connection with us despite the distance.
  
  To get us started, she sent us a ceremony script with various wording options. She was comfortable with us doing lots of editing to make it feel tailored to our own personalities and level of religiosity. We worked on learning about what the different Jewish wedding traditions were, and figuring out what aspects resonated with us. We felt that she was supportive of our choices and encouraging of our values. She even helped talk us through some delicate issues about how to involve various family members, which we really appreciated. On our wedding day, Laurie was fantastic. Her way of being simultaneously calm and joyful was soothing to us in our nervous moments, she guided the whole family to their roles smoothly, and she led all of us through the ceremony very beautifully. Our parents were all very happy with her, too.
  
  We would definitely recommend Laurie, since we really enjoyed the time we spent preparing for the wedding with her and felt that she helped make our experience exactly what we wanted - a balance of tradition and personalization, with a tone that was heartfelt and joyful.

  Rabbi Laurie Gold was our officiant at our wedding earlier this year, and she did a wonderful job. The wedding was a Jewish ceremony that included some Vietnamese traditions as well. She helped us blend the two traditions so that both sides would be comfortable with the service. Laurie is kind and warm and we clicked with her immediately. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, and it showed when she conducted the ceremony. Afterwards, people came up to us and told us she did an amazing job. I would absolutely highly recommend Laurie!

  Laurie Gold did an incredible job officiating our ceremony. She is thoughtful and well-spoken and really put my husband and I at ease as we stood in front of our friends and family to be married. Laurie respected our wishes as far as the overall tone of the ceremony was concerned, but she really demonstrated her love for her work when she put together such a beautiful, personal, and fun marriage blessing for us. We really only gave her a little bit to go on, and yet the results were creative and unforgettable. We have known and loved Laurie for many years, and she endeared herself to us forever on our wedding day.

  Laurie was the perfect person to marry us! She is kind, smart, sensitive and insightful. She interviewed us thoroughly to understand our needs, and responded to them in a way that helped to make the day even more special. She is both professional, and friendly. Laurie helped to calm our concerns as they arose, and maintained equanimity throughout. She educated us about our traditions in a way that was relevant to our lives today. We highly recommend Rabbi Laurie Gold.
