Testimonial: Lauren & Benji

"My partner and I live in Chicago, but were married in our hometown. We were nervous about finding a Rabbi from abroad that we felt reflected our values and wishes for our ceremony. Rabbi Loving far exceeded our hopes. She excelled at what seemed like an impossibly daunting task: taking the time to become familiar with us and our ten years together as a couple, and interweaving this knowledge into a deeply personal and meaningful wedding ceremony. By the time our wedding rolled along, my partner and I both felt like we had known Rabbi Loving for much longer.
In planning our ceremony, she listened carefully to our values, expectations, hopes, expressions, and desires and wove in meaningful traditions. Our ceremony was easily the most memorable and beautiful part of our wedding. Our friends and family still talk about how personal, intimate, romantic, and meaningful it felt. She hit the perfect balance of sweetness, brevity, and reverence. It reflected our values perfectly. There were very few dry eyes.
One of our most memorable moments occurred during our ketubah signing; she introduced herself to a crowded room of kibitzing and nervous family members by asking everyone to take a collective deep breath. Her presence was commanding yet deeply warm; it was a surprising and lovely combination.
We would not hesitate to recommend Rabbi Loving to any kind of couple seeking a meaningful and personal wedding officiant. We are so glad that we know her, she is a fantastic Rabbi and person and you will be undoubtedly impressed and transformed."
