A Very Special Rabbi for our Very Special Day

We cannot recommend Rabbi Ben highly enough. He was extremely professional and communicative and a pleasure to work with in the lead up to our special day. The ceremony exceeded our expectations! Rabbi Ben’s creativity, intelligence and incredible musicality made it a unique, inclusive experience for all of our guests.
