    Best Rabbi!!

    Rabbi Lebow was our officiant and we are so grateful. He took the time to get to know us personally and it meant a lot to us. He also proofread our ketubah for us which was very helpful because we had no idea what to do with it. We absolutely recommend Rabbi Lebow to any couples looking for a Jewish officiant!!

    Best ceremony

    Rabbi Lebow initiated the most loving, kind, and funny ceremony. It captured our personalities so perfectly. All our friends and family couldn't stop telling us how great the ceremony went.

    Perfection!

    Rabbi Lebow was absolutely wonderful! He met with us ahead of time and got to know us. He then listened to what we had in mind and transformed that into something perfect. We could not have asked for a more perfect ceremony and more kind and wonderful words. We will always remember what he said. It was very special to us, and he managed to reflect our personalities and what we wanted exactly! It was just perfect. We are extremely grateful to him and cannot say enough good things about him!

    Rabbi Steven Lebow's reply:

    It was great getting know you! You made the process so easy and we “clicked” right away.
    I’m so glad I spent the time to get to know you and to make the wedding special!

    Best Rabbi Ever!

    We consider ourselves lucky to have had such an amazing Rabbi. Rabbi Lebow couldn’t have officiated our wedding more perfectly. He was so accommodating to our needs. He captured our story and gave us the wedding we always wanted. He explained the Jewish rituals for those who were unfamiliar with the traditions. He made it meaningful, interesting, entertaining, and light-heated. Let me be real here, I made him promise to not let me cry and he delivered! Jews and non-Jews were both raving about how this was the best officiant they have witnessed. Thank you, Rabbi Lebow, for being part of our day and truly making it unforgettable!

    Rabbi Steven Lebow's reply:

    Camille- you and your bride were stupendous! You guys are beautiful inside and out! Thanks for letting me be a part of your big day.

    The BEST Officiant

    Rabbi Lebow is the BEST of the best! While I have known him for a while, he took the time to get to know my fiance and us as a couple before the ceremony and worked in personal touches throughout. He helped make our day so special!

    Rabbi Steven Lebow's reply:

    Stephanie - we had to delay your wedding, but it was worth it! People loved your wedding: the food, the music, etc. There was a little rain, but, as always, you rolled with the punches! All the best- Rabbi Steven Lebow.

    He was the best!

    From the moment we met him, Steven made everything feel like we'd known him forever. It was so easy to talk to him about us and our story - and he's pretty funny too which was a huge bonus. My husband and I enjoy a sense of humor and it was the perfect fit. Thank you Steven!

    Rabbi Lebow was amazing! My husband is agnostic, his family is Christian, and my family is Jewish. We're both nerds. He crafted a short and sweet ceremony that incorporated Jewish elements in a neutral way, and he incorporated nerdiness throughout the ceremony. We loved it. He started off including references to Zelda, Halo, Civilization V, and so many others, which was perfect because my husband and I met because of video games. It was absolutely wonderful and perfect. We loved it. He got the crowd laughing and crying and set the tone for the rest of the day. Thanks so much, Rabbi Lebow. It was amazing.

    Rabbi Lebow is amazing. He truly cares about engaging your guests and making them feel a part of the celebration. He will make it light-hearted and sentimental at the exact same time. We got many comments from our guests about how much they enjoyed the ceremony and our Rabbi in particular. Rabbi Lebow has been my Rabbi since 4 years old. My husband and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an officiant.

    Rabbi Lebow was incredible. He did everything we needed for the ceremony but made it so much more fun and lively, He brought great humor to the ceremony. He also did the ceremony exactly the way we wanted it and he changed the things we specifically wanted in it.

    Rabbi Steven Lebow's reply:

    Thank you, so much, Hailey! You were a wonderful bride to work with and beautiful to boot! I saw the pictures of your honeymoon and it looks like you guys had a great time! Please remember, you and your family are now "honorary members" of Temple Kol Emeth. I would love to have you as my guests for the Jewish holidays! See you soon! Rabbi Steve

    Rabbi Lebow was fantastic! My husband and I told him the type of wedding ceremony we were looking for, and he delivered it to a T. All of our guests have commented on how fantastic the ceremony was - we have heard many times that it was the best wedding ceremony that they have ever attended. I highly recommend Rabbi Lebow for any of your needs, he was easy to work with and made our wedding even more special.

    Rabbi Lebow is the man! As we are an interfaith couple, we wanted a spiritual but non-religious ceremony and that is exactly what Rabbi Lebow delivered. The man is such a character that our guests continue to rave about his personality and humor. He made us feel comfortable from the moment we met him. He is a charismatic, funny, and witty crowd pleaser!

    Rabbi Steven Lebow's reply:

    Ashley and Adam, LOVED working with you guys! Your venue was very special and you guys make such a fret couple! All the best, Rabbi Steve

    Rabbi Steve was amazing! We met with him and he gathered some basic info about us; first date, personality and funny facts. Not only throughout the whole wedding planning process was he willing to answer any questions we had, but also on our wedding day. He was on time and spent time with both the bridesmaids and the groomsmen before the ceremony. We had so much fun!

    The ceremony was absolutely amazing! We opted for the standard vows. Too nervous to recite our own. Once we both had reached the altar after the fiasco which I will get to in a minute; the story he told about us from the facts he had gathered was so funny and included the guest too as well. Everyone had such a great time.

    Now back to the fiasco! Every bride has the fear of falling walking down the aisle. Well I did! I made it half way of the way down the aisle and the I hit the ground. Everyone reached out to help me, but I looked up at my future husband and he was on the way to save me. Well throughout the fiasco of me falling Rabbi Steve totally kept the ceremony going with his witty, funny story telling. He took attention off me and made about both of us. He said "he's continuing to sweep her off of her feet." It was so romantic. And even though I was very upset it had all happened it made my husband feel so proud! We had such a great time it was absolutely perfect day and we will never forget it! Plus Rabbi Steve is our family Rabbi, he has married three generations of our family as well!

    Rabbi Steven Lebow's reply:

    Bonnie K., you were/are an awesome bride! You were beautiful inside and out and I loved how you set up your rustic wedding! I am SO glad I got to be there for your wedding! Love, Rabbi Steve

    When we initially met Dr. Lebow at the local Starbucks, we asked for a ceremony that was short and funny.....his response...."Look no further, i'm short and i'm funny!". Right then and there we knew he was the person that would officiate our wedding. Everyone raved about his ceremony and we couldn't be happier with our choice! We highly recommend him!

    My family has known Rabbi Lebow for many years and he did my Bat Mitzvah and Confirmed me as well. So, of course I would have him officiate my wedding ceremony. I actually planned my wedding around the time he was available. Rabbi was a pleasure to work with, from the meetings we had to talk about the ceremony and for him and my husband to get to know each other. The day of the wedding, he arrived early and led our Ketubah ceremony and later the wedding ceremony. Rabbi is very professional but also witty and kept our guests laughing at times. But he also knows when to be serious. Everyone we talked to said he loved Rabbi Lebow and that he did very well officiating or ceremony. He helped my husband and I be less nervous by telling us what to do when and guiding us through the ceremony. I am Jewish and my husband is not, so he did a great job of working with us for our interfaith wedding ceremony. I would highly recommend Rabbi Lebow to any bride.

    Rabbi Steven Lebow was an absolute hit at our wedding! He was hysterical. I reckon he should be a comedian. So so funny!! We will never forget what an amazing ceremony he made possible for us. He reminds me of my father in-law, lol! Thanks again Rabbi Lebow! We love you!

    I cannot begin to describe how amazing this man is. Hands down--he was the glue that held the entire day together. Never once did I worry knowing this man would guide our ceremony. He listened to our story, thoughts, interests, and seamlessly incorporated it all into the service. I work for WeddingWire and THIS is the man I chose out of hundreds of options. He is everything. Rabbi Lebow made all of my guests--from all different backgrounds and religions--comfortable. He made us laugh, he made us cry tears of joy, he made us dance. Writing this review is not enough to thank this man... Rabbi Lebow look for a small token of our gratitude in your mailbox soon!!!!!!!!

    Rabbi Lebow was fantastic! Having known Rabbi Lebow for many, many years, I was looking forward to having him be the officiant for my wedding. I couldn't have asked for anything more. As an added bonus, every guest at the wedding LOVED him. Thank you Rabbi Lebow!
