I Believe... in universal principles. That we are all created in the Divine Image. That love transcends all races and creeds. That when two people of different backgrounds and faiths can come together to form the most intimate of human relationships, it is a reason to rejoice.

Specializing in: Jewish/Interfaith weddings

Additional Information: I sing very well and will do so in accordance with the couple’s desire. From simply chanting the blessings to singing a song in Hebrew, English or Spanish and, occasionally, singing the processional.
Brief excerpts from testimonials:
"Thank you for officiating at the beautiful ceremony of my daughter’s wedding to Michael. You have a beautiful voice and we really appreciated your singing the benedictions. It was our first experience with an interfaith ceremony and we were very impressed with all the traditions. May God bless you and yours." Marion J.
