Rabbi Rayzel brought an extraordinary level of warmth, wisdom, and inclusivity to our interfaith ceremony. Her approach to marriage preparation was both thorough and thoughtful, creating a space where both our faith traditions were honored and celebrated. The ceremony she crafted was deeply personal while maintaining religious significance, with careful explanations of Jewish traditions that engaged all our guests. Her surprise ceremonial elements added unique and meaningful touches to our celebration. The Ketubah signing and wedding ceremony were conducted with a perfect balance of gravitas and joy, creating an atmosphere of both celebration and spiritual significance. Her ability to connect with couples and craft truly personalized ceremonies makes her an exceptional choice for couples seeking a meaningful interfaith celebration. Everyone at our wedding was brought to tears during our ceremony because it was so moving. She was amazing!!!!! We can’t wait to work with her for future life milestones.

We were incredibly blessed to have Rabb Rayzel officiate our wedding ceremony. From the moment we met, we felt an immediate sense of warmth, compassion, and understanding. She was the person we needed in our lives during the stressful wedding planning process.
Rabbi Rayzel took the time to get to know us as a couple, ensuring that every aspect of the ceremony felt personal, meaningful, and reflective of our journey together. We are a fully Jewish couple and initially I was skeptical that she’d be the right fit because she does a lot of interfaith weddings and wears tie dye and joyfully sings in her voicemail. I was completely wrong. The ceremony itself was beyond beautiful — heartfelt, moving, and full of love. Rabbi Rayzel created an atmosphere that was both sacred and joyous, weaving in wisdom, humor, and spirituality in a way that resonated deeply with us and our guests. Many of our family and friends commented on how special and unique the ceremony was. The ketubah signing was unlike anything anyone had experienced; it was a full blessing ceremony that was healing and meaningful for all involved. My husband and his dad said it was their favorite part of the day. We are so grateful for Rabbi Rayzel’s guidance, kindness, and professionalism throughout the entire process. We cannot recommend Rabbi Rayzel highly enough to any couple looking for a thoughtful, passionate, and inspiring officiant. Thank you, Rabbi Rayzel, for giving us a moment we will treasure for the rest of our lives! And we are so grateful you continue to be in our lives. We look forward to leaning on her and learning from her as we grow as a couple and family.

Rabbi Rayzel officiated the Jewish part of our interfaith wedding. She met with us via phone calls and FaceTime 5 different times before the actual ceremony to discuss various topics, get to know us, and help guide us on our journey of marriage. She was always flexible with meeting times, really made us feel comfortable and answered any questions that we had. On the day of the wedding, Rabbi did an incredible job commanding the audience’s attention and leading a beautiful ceremony with a touch of humor. It was evident that she came prepared. After the ceremony, many guests made it a point to share how much they enjoyed the ceremony primarily due to Rabbi’s positive energy and charisma. She truly went above and beyond and we are so grateful that we found her.

Rabbi Rayzel was phenomenal. She spent the time to get to know us before the ceremony. The ceremony itself was exceptional. Rabbi Rayzel was so warm, and entertaining too. I would recommend her to anyone.

Working with Rabbi Rayzel Raphael for our interfaith (Jewish & Catholic) wedding was a wonderful experience from start to finish! She was easy to talk to, and really took the time to help craft the perfect ceremony for my husband and I. She provided us with many options and helped to guide us in choosing what felt meaningful to us. We loved how she ensured our focus was on the marriage, not just the wedding!
All of our guests raved about her after the ceremony too! They commented about how engaging she was to listen to and how well she explained the meaning behind different parts of the ceremony. They also loved her fun energy. Thank you Rabbi Rayzel for helping to make our wedding ceremony so meaningful and memorable!

Rabbi Rayzel was an absolute pleasure to work with! I loved that Rabbi Rayzel was more than willing to officiate our interfaith ceremony with many Jewish customs while still conforming to my wife’s faith. The ceremony was absolutely stunning and was inclusive of Jewish and non-Jewish family members and friends. Our guests could not stop talking about how amazing our ceremony was. Rabbi explained everything to us prior to the wedding and we met with her many times via Zoom so that both my wife and I knew exactly how the Ketubah signing and ceremony was going to go. We will 100% agree with one of Rabbi’s other reviews. Rabbi Rayzel made our Ketubah signing absolutely memorable, making it more than just a prayer and signing of a legal document. We would highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking a Rabbi for their wedding!!

Rabbi Rayzel was wonderful to work with. We only had about a month to get everything together and she was super quick and flexible with us. We also loved that she let us pick and choose what kind of ceremony we wanted. She suggested some traditions, but did not push anything onto us. She's the perfect progressive Rabbi.
