I officiate joyful Jewish and interfaith weddings that honor tradition while embracing your vision.
I would love to hear your story and explore how we can make your wedding day meaningful together—no pressure, just a conversation about what matters most to you. Let’s talk!
Your wedding day is a truly special celebration—but what’s even more important is the beautiful marriage that follows. When we work together, we’ll go beyond planning the ceremony, taking time in a few sessions to create a meaningful foundation for both your wedding and your life together. These pre-wedding conversations will help you uncover the topics that often get buried in the hustle of planning, so you can walk into this moment feeling connected, supported, and excited!
When we team up to design your wedding ceremony, I’ll share a range of Jewish traditions with you, helping you make choices that feel right for the day. If wedding planning is starting to feel like a lot, don’t worry—I’m here to help keep things easy and fun, making sure everything runs smoothly so you can just enjoy this special moment together.
My services also include officiating an intimate, personalized ketubah signing, typically done prior to the ceremony.
Even if you’re not necessarily looking for a rabbi to officiate your wedding—maybe your friend is officiating!—I’m happy to chat and offer guidance as you navigate your wedding planning journey.

Testimonials
Rabbi Kaufman was everything we could have asked for in an officiant. She got to know us as a couple and as individuals. She really understood what was important to us, which shined through in the wedding ceremony. It was personal, it was heartfelt, and it struck the right tone that we were looking for. My wife and I still, even after a year, are beaming when we think about our wedding and the ceremony and the wonderful experience we had with Rabbi Kaufman.

Rabbi Kaufman did an incredible job officiating our wedding. She radiates joy and puts everyone at ease. So many of our friends and relatives told us how beautiful her words were, and we completely agreed. Leading up to the wedding, Rabbi Kaufman’s sessions with us provided a grounding opportunity to reflect on our relationship, and we are thankful for her gracious guidance.
