My wife and I were introduced to Rabbi Ross after hiring Father John Voglio (who was wonderful as…read morewell) to preside over our interfaith wedding ceremony. Once we met the Rabbi at his home, we knew we were in good hands. He was extremely courteous and generous with his time and guidance, as Amanda and I were very unsure of what to do. Between Rabbi Ross and Father John, we couldn't have asked for two better clergymen to preside over our wedding. The ceremony itself was full of love, humor and wisdom. Several wedding guests came up to us afterwards and told us it was the best wedding ceremony they had ever seen. Rabbi Ross took extremely good care of us and we are excited to welcome him into our lives for the big moments of our family in the future.

Rabbi Ross officiated at our interfaith wedding on 10/12/14 on Long Island and I have nothing but…read moregreat things to say about the ceremony! He officiated with Father Neil O'Connell and the two of them created a balanced and absolutely beautiful ceremony. I'm Catholic and my husband is Jewish, both of us from very traditional backgrounds, so there were concerns on both our sides about how balanced and comfortable the ceremony would be. Rabbi Ross was helpful in guiding my husband and I along the way and for referring Father O'Connell to co-officiate. Needless to say the ceremony was perfect, a beautiful blending of too religious traditions that emphasized the richness of both religions as well as the similar roots between the two. Everyone on both sides of the family RAVED about the ceremony and said how beautiful it was! I even have guests from the wedding now asking me for Rabbi Ross' information because they were so impressed! I am so happy with how beautiful my ceremony turned out and if you are looking for an interfaith rabbi for your wedding look no further than Rabbi Ross at Loving Hearts Ceremonies!

Best Wedding Officiant EVER! Michelle made our wedding…read morebeyond perfect. She has a lifetime of experience in hosting events, from working on cruise ships to managing stage productions and of course her officiating marriages. She took all of the stress away from our wedding. She met with us before hand to find out exactly what WE wanted, but she also gave us great ideas we could use from other weddings to help us figure out what was our dream wedding. THEN she helped us edit our vows! My husband is Italian and doesn't speak much english. Michelle found us a translator at the last minute when I was freaking out! She goes well above the call of an officiant and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Lastly, because my husband and I were both too nervous to say our vows, she orchestrated the entire wedding so that she could say them for us. And Oh my goodness did she do an amazing job with that! She added my personality to a T, and she captured the sweet caring side of my husband. There wasn't a dry eye in the crowd. We cannot thank her enough. And we wish her prices were higher as she definitely deserves more for all she does.

Not only did he do that, but he checked in on me in the bridal suite from time to time before the ceremony to give me updates about the ceremony set up so that I would be in the loop. From the moment, we met him, he gave us comforting advice that very much helped to de-stress a very stressed bride. At the ceremony, I loved how he spoke, the speed at which he spoke at and his eye contact. I felt like guests were hanging on to his every word. I enjoyed having a rehearsal with him. Since my family had not attended any previous weddings, we really needed alot of help on how to walk in, where to stand, etc. and he helped us work through all of that at the rehearsal so that at the ceremony, all of us including the bridal party and groomsmen, knew exactly what to do. He also sent us reminders of what we had to bring and do the week before, which I thought was very helpful because during the last week there are million things on a bride's mind and it's easy to forget somethings. I loved how he helped us customize our ceremony and formed our story with his questionnaire about us. The guests loved learning about how we met and our relationship. Whenever I had any questions or changes to make to the ceremony, I was able to send him an email and he would respond within the day and I loved his quick responses! Ultimately, if it isn't already clear, I would definitely recommend Kevin as an officiant for your wedding!

The process was thoughtful, meticulous, and so much more personal than we ever expected. It never felt like we were getting a generic ceremony, as he crafted something that truly reflected our relationship. On the wedding day, he absolutely exceeded our expectations. He struck the perfect balance of funny, emotional, romantic, and lighthearted, keeping everyone engaged from beginning to end. He has an incredible presence and knows exactly how to work the room, making the ceremony feel intimate while also entertaining our guests. One of the things that stood out most was how many people came up to us after the ceremony just to tell us how amazing he was. We heard over and over again how much they loved him and how memorable the ceremony was. My sister even told me she wished he had officiated her own wedding! If you're looking for someone who will genuinely invest in getting to know you, create a ceremony that feels authentic, and deliver it with warmth, humor, and heart, we couldn't recommend him more highly.

And part of bridesmaid duty is listening to the bride vent so I have heard the cripes and complaints about their wedding planners and what went wrong.  I was recently the maid of honor for my dearest friend in NYC. She doesn't have a lot of family so I was fortunate to be able to play a big role in helping her plan her dream day. I happened to be visiting when she had a meeting with Louann and Nancy of Reed Cohen Papers and Events. My friend told me she loved her party planners and it was clear to see why. They were amazing; their attention to detail and organizational skills were great. They were kind and thoughtful, seemed very respectful of her budget and really knowledgable about all the vendors and venues in the area.  Wedding planning can be so stressful but these two just seemed to have such a command on the planning and most of all, they were so fun and creative. I got to know them pretty well from the meetings I attended with my friend and phone calls I helped out with. The wedding was absolutely perfect, she couldn't have asked for a more lovely day. The invitations were beautiful and I was super impressed with their detailed timing script for every detail (large and small) that happened over the entire wedding weekend.  Most of all, they made my friend feel like she was their most important client and no concern was too silly to raise. I just recommended them to another friend who got engaged and I would really love if they would expand into the DC market one day when it is my turn.

It goes a long way to incorporate the overwhelming amount of work with a professional team of events planners. The Reed Cohen team of 2 women with many, many years of experience, handled our once in a lifetime destination wedding with creativity, grace and 100% complete attention to details. I'm absolutely sure we could not have found a better team to help us coordinate the entire weekend. Before we had even determined the actual venue, Nancy Cohen provided a list of options, with a sensitivity to our budget and an quick read of the bride/groom's style. Any moments of uncertainty by the bride were addressed by the team of Reed Cohen patiently, and they were always completely open to our opinions and concerns. As the wedding approached, the Reed Cohen team were available 24/7 with a mutual goal of making this weekend the most memorable and every detail was well planned and executed. It was truly a FLAWLESS AND FULFILLING weekend. Start to finish, including a few difficult family challenges, they guided us, provided a depth of knowledge and experience, and allowed my daughter to focus on the best part of planning a wedding while leaving the endless details to the Reed Cohen team. Professional and competent with a sensitivity to planning a completely unique event for each client. Amazing !!
