A Warm Wedding of Sweetness, Wit and Whimsy That You Can Truly Call Your Own

Student Rabbi Devon Spier truly exceeded all expectations as she crafted our pre-wedding rituals and wedding ceremony. We met three times ahead of our wedding, twice for conversation and ceremony development, and once for a special Shabbat experience that we have carried forward as a new family tradition. From our first meeting, it was evident that her approach to her Rabbinic craft was filled with creativity and an open heart, much like the poetry she writes. Our experience working with her was heartening and personal on so many levels, and the result was new rituals for our Jewish life and a ceremony that had everyone present verklempt.

One of the most remarkable aspects of Student Rabbi Spier’s work was the way she wove in acknowledgements of our ancestors and late loved ones. It went far beyond simply mentioning their names; she created an atmosphere where we and our families truly felt their presence with us on our wedding day. It was a deeply moving experience to have our heritage and lineage honored in such a profound way.

What made the ceremony even more extraordinary was the incorporation of universal values that transcend religious boundaries. Student Rabbi Spier effortlessly connected universal threads from Judaism, Buddhism, and even popular culture references like Harry Potter, creating a tapestry of meaning that resonated with everyone in attendance. As we requested, she delivered a ceremony that stepped outside the confines of traditional norms and embraced a broader spectrum of spirituality.

Student Rabbi Spier’s ability to infuse the ceremony with such depth and richness was truly exceptional. Her creative approach brought a sense of wonder and enchantment to the proceedings, leaving a lasting impact on all who were present. It was evident that she had invested time and energy into understanding our unique story, and she masterfully crafted a ceremony that reflected our journey as a couple.

Furthermore, Student Rabbi Spier’s warmth and genuine compassion shone through every aspect of the ceremony and our pre-wedding rituals. She created a safe and sacred space for us to experience our first mikvahs and later for the exchange of our vows, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in these important moments and in the love we share. Her presence and guidance throughout the entire wedding process brought a sense of calm and reassurance, which was invaluable during such an emotional occasion.

In conclusion, Student Rabbi Devon Spier’s contribution to our wedding ceremony was nothing short of extraordinary. Her ability to blend creativity, spirituality, and personalization resulted in a ceremony that will forever hold a special place in our hearts. We are so grateful for Student Rabbi Spier’s guidance and expertise, and we wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a memorable wedding ceremony.
