“Thank you so much for being such an instrumental part of our wedding weekend. From your beautiful blessing and song at the rehearsal dinner to the incredibly moving ceremony, we can not imagine a better person to have guided us on the start of our spiritual and loving journey together as a married couple.
At the reception, person after person kept telling us how moved they were by the ceremony. It felt so personal and so sincerely caring, while being grounded in the most beautiful aspects of thousands of years of tradition. Your words meant so much to both of us and swelled our hearts — both the parts we knew were coming and the wonderful surprises you had kept from us.
We look forward to continuing to build our relationship with you as we grow our lives together. I know that if my bride’s mom has any say in it, we will find many more opportunities to celebrate holidays & simchas together in the years to come.”– Alex, New York, NY

“Rabbi Rosalind Glazer did the most amazing job officiating our wedding. From the very beginning, she gave us all her attention and care. She made the day beyond special for us, singing, rejoicing & adding incredibly personal touches. I can’t imagine anyone else doing as fantastic a job. We will always be happy she played such a major role on our big day.”- Allison, New York, NY

“Rabbi Rosalind officiated at our daughter’s wedding. She was recommended by the groom and his family and I was thrilled with the choice. Everything was perfect!!! Her knowledge, her warmth, her beautiful voice and her spirituality worked together to create a ceremony which was just what we had hoped for – deeply meaningful with a touch of humor.” – Tobi, Purchase, NY
“When you agreed to be the rabbi at our son’s wedding we were certain it would be special. Thank you for making the whole event so meaningful! There was so much love in the synagogue and our family and friends were blown away by the ruach you created in that moment. Everyone still comments on the chuppah-much moreso than the reception-which thrills me. My brother Sammy, who isn’t particularly spiritual, went out of his way to tell me how impressed he was with you and how much he loved the ceremony. It meant so much to us that you were part of our simcha!” – Ellen, Atlantic Beach, NY
“My wife and I were delighted to be married by Rabbi Rosalind who was extraordinarily thoughtful in both preparation and officiating. She met with us beforehand; listened to our hopes, thoughts, and backgrounds; and wove them into the ritual. She led a ceremony that was meaningful, accessible, and beautiful…as agreed by hundreds of guests all coming from very different walks of life.” – Darian, Silver Spring, MD
“I can’t tell you how wonderful Jill & Darian’s wedding ceremony was for us. Thank you for helping to make everyone in our family feel so comfortable and welcomed. We felt privileged to have been part of such a rich, meaningful experience. It was truly a gift to be there.” – Liz Pfender, Swarthmore, PA
“Rabbi Glazer officiated our beautiful wedding and I was the honored bride. She worked created a memorable event that incorporated our families and children, including elements unique to our relationship. An added bonus was Rabbi Glazer’s incredible singing voice which really made it special! Not only was our service thoughtfully designed but the pre-marital counseling and discussions helped shape the direction of our marriage. When seeking a rabbi for a recent event I kept envisioning the our custom wedding that Rabbi Glazer officiated for us. Rabbi Glazer is a gift!“- Rebecca, San Francisco, CA
“Our wedding was one of the best days of our lives! Rabbi Rosalind worked with us to create a beautiful and joyful ceremony rooted in and inspired by Jewish tradition that harmonized with our values and intentions. Many friends still say it was the best wedding they ever attended! We especially appreciated meeting with the Rabbi not only to plan the wedding but also to discuss the intentions for our marriage. I have nothing but positive things to say about Rabbi Glazer in her role as a spiritual advisor and lifecycle officiant.” – David, San Francisco, CA
“Rabbi Rosalind Glazer has performed weddings for several people to whom I referred her. They have all been thrilled with the beautiful service she created: her depth of spirituality, her professionalism, her human insight and her magnificent music. I would recommend Rabbi Glazer in a heartbeat!” – Rabbi Nancy Fuchs Kreimer, Reconstructionist Rabbinical College, Wyncote, PA
