Elizabeth Frumin, Weddings With Heart

ive the process of writing our ceremony was. We had to postpone our wedding twice due to COVID-19 and Elizabeth was very flexible and accommodating. She helped us develop an abbreviated ceremony for our small mini wedding last week. We are excited to work with her and our original ceremony next year at our larger wedding celebration! Elizabeth is very responsive, supportive, kind, and really works to ensure the ceremony reflects you as a couple. We really appreciate her availability to meet, talk on the phone, email, or Zoom. At our mini ceremony, she was professional and personable. Our guests made a point of letting us know how thoughtful and well delivered the ceremony was. We highly recommend Elizabeth and Weddings with Heart!

ID-19, my husband and I decided we weren't ready to let the pandemic put our marriage union on hold. Dr. Frumin kept in touch with us every step of the way, and even made last minute changes to our ceremony a few weeks before the wedding date to accommodate our much more intimate wedding. She was helpful in every way, from our first time meeting and talking about our relationship, to providing information about the marriage licensing and name-change process. It also meant a lot that Elizabeth made the decision to still join us on our originally planned day. My husband and I are looking forward to having Elizabeth officiate our vow renewal for our larger wedding party in November.

great guide through an emotional process— always willing to truly listen. She also had great suggestions and was very responsive. Many of our guests commented on how personal the ceremony was. I recommend Élizabeth wholeheartedly.

. rushed us for vows bc she had to send a computer away. she then proceeded to yell at my bridal party and husband about placement. so disappointed.

beth truly encourages you to help dictate and have an active role in along the way!)--everything was absolutely perfect. Elizabeth genuinely cared for our well being throughout the process and made sure that our wedding message was a special one that was catered to exactly what we wanted. If you are looking to have your wedding ceremony be made seamless and personalized, look no further!

her focus was not just our wedding day, but my husband and I having a successful and loving marriage. She was receptive to changes even to the week before and was able to tailor everything to be a unique expression of our relationship. We really loved working with her!

ft our ceremony to be exactly what we wanted, including personally meaningful readings and vows, and a tailored flow for the ceremony that met our unique needs. We found Dr. Frumin to be a pleasure to work with and she suggested many alterations to a traditional format that made our ceremony truly ours. I could not be happier with her services and offer a whole-hearted recommendation!

xible and really strived to make the ceremony what we wanted. She was very responsive whenever we had questions or concerns and sent us several drafts of the ceremony. Elizabeth really went above & beyond to not only write our ceremony, but also provided us with information about the marriage license process. We could tell in meeting with Elizabeth how much heart she puts into each individual ceremony. Unfortunately, she was not available to officiate our wedding and her business partner Sheryl Manzella was able to step in and perform the ceremony. Sheryl was also very responsive and thorough. She handled little hiccups during the ceremony well that were out of her control. They were both a pleasure to work with.

e delivering a beautiful, modern, loving ceremony full of laughter. We got many compliments on her laid-back style and "vibe" from our friends and family. I would highly recommend her for your big day!

to. I felt a sense of love and calmness From her though this whole experience. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth for any of your needs!

with the other vendors. I would highly recommend!!!!

eflected our beliefs and love. Elizabeth got to know us on a personal level and we really connected with her which showed in our vows and ceremony. She was a wonderful collaborator and a great support for me for wedding-related stress. Elizabeth exudes a sense of calmness which helped ground us and made our ceremony just so wonderfully authentic, serene and loving.

king the time to custom make the ceremony to her clients is second to none. We felt we were more than a simple questionnaire to Elizabeth. She took time with us, understood our vision and really spent some quality time creating our ceremony to fit our relationship highlights and what our wedding meant to us. Elizabeth gave us truthful criticism if certain wording didn’t seem to fit correctly or offered an alternative to what we wanted to say and show, but couldn’t quite express it correctly in our ceremony package. We felt comfortable and secure in her hands. Her guidance and insight was perfect. If you want a stress free experience with someone detailed oriented, then look no further than Weddings with Heart!!!

ver our ceremony script with us and even read it aloud to make sure it was perfect and what we wanted. She also is great at helping with all the legal steps in attaining your marriage license. We are so happy we chose Elizabeth! Our guests gave us so many compliments on our ceremony and we made the whole room tear up!

ctly as we had hoped. She also was great about helping with other details, like the license. I would definitely recommend her!

officiant. The ceremony was personal and real, and showed their relationship as it is. I have attended many weddings in the past, and I actually liked this one best! Mary and Brian thought she was perfect for what they wanted, and Elizabeth helped them through some family issues that also came up through the wedding preparation time. If couples are looking for someone who delivers a ceremony that is meaningful, honest and enjoyable, work with Elizabeth Frumin, Weddings With Heart.

ring made these ceremonies memorable.

to us with detailed questions and recommendations and wrote a ceremony that respected our wishes. Our vendors loved working with her. She connected with them all prior to the event and got them the information they needed so the the wedding day went smoothly. We would recommend her 100%. She did what she does with professionalism, a depth of experience, kindness and consideration for our needs. Thanks, Elizabeth.

fessional , personable, warm and caring, and a wonderful officiant for couples about to go through this beautiful day in their life together. I can not say enough good things about her. You will be glad you chose her if you have the opportunity to have her as your officiant

ll her peaceful presence on the day calmed my nerves and helped me come present to experience the wonder of the day. Our guests were enchanted by the ceremony and the experience of being together. I would recommend Elizabeth to everyone looking for an experienced, loving officiant.

s. However, her lack of organization and ability to communicate was difficult to handle. Each of her emails were sent with an unreasonable amount of typos and contradictions. For example, I (the bride) had to remind her of our meeting times more than once and keep an up to date version of our ceremony on hand at all times because her work was seldom up to date. I did not want to send any of her drafts to my other vendors because of the confusing / contradictory language. Also, she forgot our vows the day of our wedding. She is attentive and truly caring, but her absent mindedness does not make the experience worth it.

y. Would highly recommend!

e unsure of what we wanted. I would highly recommend.

nalized ceremony for us and made edits very quickly when we asked for them. She also did a great job with a quick rehearsal before the ceremony and with keeping things flowing smoothly. Andrea and I both highly recommend her. Thanks Elizabeth!

ette. After our first official meeting with her, she was the obvious choice for our wedding ceremony. Elizabeth is incredibly perceptive and quickly developed a comprehensive understand of our relationship. We walked away from our meeting feeling like we'd known her for years. Using our vision and sentiments, Elizabeth composed the most beautiful ceremony that was truly unique to us. She is knowledgeable and accepting of all cultures and religions and will tailor your ceremony to correspond with your specific beliefs. Elizabeth simply loves love and we loved having her part of our wedding day.

emony in under 2 weeks, including an in-person and facetime meeting. Elizabeth was responsive and professional. She also understood and captured our personalities perfectly in our ceremony. Elizabeth was kind, funny, and just an overall pleasure to work with.

ne, and guided us in creating the best representation of our commitment to one another. Elizabeth was open, honest, caring, friendly, , sentimental, and a true pleasure. I would absolutely recommend Elizabeth to anyone! We couldn't have been happier with how everything came out, and you can definitely feel the passion and love that Elizabeth emanates in officiating weddings.

from Elizabeth it was very happy and reassuring that we were headed in the right direction. I kind of had an idea of what kind of ceremony I wanted for my wedding, but working with Elizabeth made it that much easier. She pointed me in the right direction throughout the process. We initially met on skype which I loved the way she spoke and made me feel at ease. Then from there on it was e-mails back and forth, calls in between if needed. The final call a week prior to the wedding when she read through the entire ceremony to my husband and I and it was PERFECT. It was even more perfect on the wedding day, the guests raved about how different, funny, and heartfelt it was. I can't wait to get our video back to hear it again! Elizabeth reached out to us while we were on our honeymoon which was so sweet, we were so happy to hear from her. Thank you so much Elizabeth, we can't thank you enough for everything! A great officiant that turned into a friend. - Brittany & Chris Levin

g experience of writing personal vows in a way that honored both of our personalities and comfort levels. She skillfully helped us craft a ceremony inclusive of our audience (comprised of Catholics, Quakers, agnostics, atheists, and non-denominational believers). Personally, it was important to me to find a female officiant who was a feminist and accepting of all forms of commitment ceremonies and marriage equality.....she fit the bill across the board. Her spiritual grounding combined with her irreverence and humor made her a perfect fit.

e loved. We received so many compliments about our ceremony and we recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for an officiant. Definitely recommend her for a beautiful, personalized ceremony.

had us answer personal questions about each other. She composed our ceremony from scratch and included our answers to make it deeply personal. Elizabeth was dedicated to crafting our wedding based on religious & spiritual traditions important to us. I am Jewish and my husband has a Greek Orthodox background (while neither of us are particularly religious). With her help, we created a combination of jewish and christian traditions to acknowledge both sides. She was constantly available throughout the year prior to our marriage, keeping in contact with us via email and continuously sending us updated drafts of the ceremony. We met with her for one last "run through" 2 weeks before and she insisted on speaking with us on the day of our wedding to impart well wishes and a much needed pep talk. She was so genuine and accommodating throughout the entire process. The ceremony was so beautiful and heartfelt that we spent the entire cocktail hour fielding compliments on our exceptional officiant. I even provided her name and information to a guest afterward! From a practical standpoint, she helped guide us through the process of obtaining a marriage license and sending the proper paperwork into the state. Her price point was completely and totally reasonable. Other officiants we researched were charging well over $1000. Every dollar spent was absolutely worth it. I really cannot say enough about Elizabeth. If you're pulling your hair out trying to plan your wedding as I was, please make this easy decision! It was the most worry-free and rewarding experience for us. Thanks Elizabeth! Love, Ariel & Andrew Haas

nd incredibly happy we chose her to be a part of our wedding. The consultation was great; we didn't want a long and dry ceremony, we wanted something full of love, and that's exactly what she delivered! What's so great about Elizabeth, is that we picked ideas from previous wedding ceremonies, but she wrote our entire ceremony script personalized to us! Our guests said it was the best ceremony they had ever been to! Elizabeth still keeps in touch with us, she is the kind of person that you feel like you have known forever, such a kind person! You will NOT be disappointed!

tions of Jewish and Christian weddings. She always made us feel comfortable and was receptive to everything we wanted in our ceremony. She answered all questions very quickly and helped to coordinate with all of our other vendors for the day of the wedding. She came highly recommended from one of my friends and I am very happy we chose her. Everyone at our wedding commented how lovely the ceremony was and that they felt that it was very unique to us. We were very happy with our ceremony and how it was personalized to our wishes.

and something we could reflect on for years to come. That's what we got! Our DJ even remarked it was one of the most special ceremonies he'd ever seen. She worked with us by going through scripts she's worked on in the past and molding a unique ceremony based on our feedback. Over a period of a few months we worked through revisions together and rehearsed the script on the phone. She was fantastic every step of the way and really helped guide us toward a great service. A few weeks out from the wedding a complication arose that meant Elizabeth wouldn't be able to be present on our wedding day. It was unavoidable and something we completely understood. This was the worst case scenario you could have and Elizabeth handled it flawlessly! She orchestrated a meeting between us and her colleague who would serve as a stand-in. Her colleague was great to work with and made our special day so wonderful. Everything was perfect and stress free in a situation that could have gone the other way. This is a testament to Elizabeth's professionalism and how she is overall simply an awesome person.

re meeting with Elizabeth which was great. A lot of the information we put into the form was used for the ceremony - it really put a personal and loving spin on the ceremony. We originally met with Elizabeth about 10 months before the wedding - she was easy to talk to, realistic and funny and I really got the feeling like she understood where we were coming from. I was brought up Catholic but Doug and I were both looking for a non-denominational ceremony that was more spiritual and about love and our relationship than about religion. She delivered. Our ceremony was beautiful, heartfelt and full of love - exactly what we wanted. Through out the entire process, Elizabeth was easy to talk to, fast to respond to emails or calls, and addressed all of our concerns. My favorite part of our experience was that I really felt like we had a hand in writing a unique and personal ceremony (and it wasn't just 'another generic wedding). After the ceremony we received MANY compliments on Elizabeth. They loved her pace, the duration of the readings and the energy of the day. Overall I could not be more happy. She has continued to stay in touch to make sure I have all of my paperwork filed. I would recommend Elizabeth to anyone - our day would not have been as special without her.

he big day. She asked us done questions and created an spectacular personalized ceremony that was perfect for us. There was genuine caring and unbelievable professionalism throughout the whole process. We would highly recommend her and can't thank her enough!!!!

the importance of us being comfortable with her, so it was a no-pressure meeting. We both felt a connection with her - we were completely comfortable talking with her about everything from our proposal story to recently fostering/adopting a dog. After that meeting, we told Elizabeth we'd want her as a part of our day and we started working on the ceremony. With Elizabeth's help, we were able to completely customize our ceremony (for instance, we didn't want any mention of God in the ceremony and that wasn't a problem). After going back and forth to get the ceremony perfect, we met once more to do a dry run of the ceremony and just to talk (seriously, talking with Elizabeth is like reconnecting with an old friend). On the day of our wedding, Elizabeth arrived early and made sure to see both of us separately before the ceremony. The ceremony went off without a hitch and it was truly in thanks to Elizabeth - I cannot say thank you enough!

th sample readings and poems that we could incorporate into the ceremony and made sure that we were truly happy. We met with her twice before our wedding day, the first time so she could get to know us as individuals and as a couple and find out what was important to have in the ceremony and the time length that we wanted. We also met with her one more time, closer to the date, to rehearse. In between those meetings she was always available through email and leading up to the wedding helped us to coordinate the ceremony with the musicians and photographer. We are really glad that we chose to work with Elizabeth and if you are looking for an officiant that is flexible with the structure of the ceremony and really wants to get to know you and make the ceremony personal about the couple, I would definitely recommend her.

e in helping us craft a ceremony that reflected our personalities and individuality. She was so quick in her responses to us via email, phone, etc- it really put my mind at ease that she was always “on top of things.” She brought a level of compassion and sensitivity in her work with us that really made her stand out from the crowd. She would reach out to us just to see how we were holding up as we got closer to our wedding date and offer support. She was even prepared with a tissue when I was tearing up while saying my vows! Our wedding date fell on the same weekend as the 1-year anniversary of her father’s death, which was an important day for her family and carried with it some customs and religious traditions that prevented her from attending our reception and rehearsal, however we felt prepared with the script that she provided. Despite what a tough day it must have been for her personally, she was able to share in our joy during our ceremony and we never got the sense that she was distracted. She always acted with the utmost sensitivity to our needs as clients. Her resources (example vows, readings) were really diverse, and I could imagine that nearly anyone would be able to find something that would inspire them in that mix. We also did a tree planting as part of our ceremony, and Elizabeth was flexible and worked with us to make sure it came off gracefully. I have ZERO regrets about having Elizabeth as our officiant and HIGHLY recommend her.

ceremonies she's done to help us get ideas, spoke with us to get a sense of our personalities and our relationship. She then e-mailed us a draft of the ceremony, which we edited and e-mailed back and forth until we were both happy with it. She was very kind and sweet, very helpful and quick to return calls and emails! The ceremony itself went off perfectly! I am Jewish whereas my husband is not, we had decided that we wanted the traditions of a Jewish ceremony but not the religious aspect of it, which Elizabeth was able to pull off flawlessly. I've been to other wedding where it feels like the person performing the ceremony has never met the couple before, which is not what I wanted! Working with Elizabeth, the ceremony felt personal, and reflected the relationship myself and my husband have.

eremony so it was exactly how we wanted it. We received SO many compliments on Elizabeth after our wedding day. Guests said it sounded like she knew us and that the ceremony was so tailored to our personalities. I would recommend Elizabeth to anyone!
