Rabbi Brian delivered a ceremony of services that were beyond comprehension. With care, compassion, energy, and humor, he wrapped us with such love for our day. We and everyone were amazed at how he truly seemed to know us. He recounted so many moments from our love story, even moments I forgot we mentioned to him, and made us feel like we were the only ones in the room- from the signing of the Ketubah, the Bedenken, to under the Chuppah. Multiple people asked where we found him and how they can use him! When you book a Rabbi or any officiant for that matter, there is a concern that it will feel like they just walked into the room without any care to get to know couple. The ceremony will feel as if they just grabbed a tired script and just incorporated your names to make it work. Not Rabbi Brian. I was not expecting the services leading up to the ceremony and the ceremony itself to be as memorable and thoughtful as it was. We want to thank him for making us feel seen and capturing the authenticity of who we are as a couple and individually as people. He brought so many people (even the most unexpected) to sniffles and happy sobbing (including us). If you are considering Rabbi Brian for any services, do not hesitate. You will be made to feel like you two are the only people in the room, no matter the size of your event!

Our experience with rabbi Brian was amazing. He was so warm, accepting and inviting with everything he said. He made our service very personalized and special to us and I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to officiate our ketubah signing.

Highlighted review.

It is hard to put into words just how much care Rabbi Brian put into our wedding ceremony. From our very first meeting, before we even committed to moving forward with him, he guid...

ed us through thoughtful questions that helped us articulate our connection to one another and to our Jewish heritage. My husband and I are not particularly religious in the observant sense, but we care deeply about our culture and honoring tradition. Rabbi Brian helped us reconnect to that by reminding us that being Jewish, at its core, is about always doing the right thing, something that has been a guiding light throughout our relationship. Rabbi Brian also beautifully wove stories from our life together and our relationship journey into the ceremony in a way that felt completely effortless and natural. He made it feel as though he had been along for the ride of our six year relationship, even though we had only met him a short while ago. His attention to detail is truly unmatched, and it meant the world to us. Beyond how meaningful working with Rabbi Brian was for us, our guests have raved about how enjoyable and engaging our ceremony was. My husband and I do not take ourselves too seriously, and Rabbi Brian allowed our personalities to shine throughout the entire experience. He joked, poked fun, and had the room laughing one moment, then moved everyone to tears of joy the next. He truly honored who we are as a couple while staying true to tradition. We are incredibly grateful to have found Rabbi Brian. We look forward to recommending him to everyone we can and to including him in our family milestones for years to come.

wedding. Blending traditions in a way that feels authentic to both families can sometimes be a challenge, but Rabbi Brian navigated this with an incredible amount of professionalism, grace, and warmth. From our very first meeting, it was clear he was genuinely invested in us as a couple. He was exceptionally flexible, supportive, and highly communicative throughout the entire planning process. Instead of trying to force a pre-set structure or his own agenda on us, he took the time to truly listen to our vision for the ceremony and worked collaboratively with us to make it a reality. He made us feel heard, understood, and respected every step of the way. On the wedding day itself, his presence was incredibly calming. He delivered an absolutely beautiful, personalized speech that captured our relationship perfectly—it had us (and our guests!) smiling, laughing, and crying. To honor my Jewish heritage, he seamlessly led the Sheva Brachot (Seven Blessings) and the traditional breaking of the glass at the end of the ceremony. He managed to weave these important Jewish traditions into the Catholic service so naturally and respectfully that it felt like they always belonged together. If you are looking for an officiant who is profoundly accommodating, deeply talented, and dedicated to creating a ceremony that truly reflects who you are as a couple, look no further than Rabbi Brian Denker. He helped make our wedding day absolutely perfect! Thank you Rabbi Brian!!

He took the time to meet with us several times, learning about our backgrounds and helping us craft a ceremony that beautifully incorporated both Jewish and Catholic traditions. Rabbi Brian created a warm, inclusive, and magical atmosphere that truly reflected who we are as a couple. The ceremony was everything we had hoped for—deeply meaningful and full of love—and it simply would not have been the same without him. We highly recommend Rabbi Brian for interfaith weddings and formal Jewish events. He is compassionate, professional, and prioritizes creating a unique experience for each couple.

ation, my fiancé & I knew that Rabbi Brian would be the perfect person to help us celebrate our special day. He is such a calming presence, is kind, patient, inclusive, funny, informative, & responsive. While I myself am not Jewish, Rabbi Brian took the time to explain & help me understand all of the components of our ceremony that were part of my fiancé's Jewish faith. It truly felt as though every step of the process from planning to the actual ceremony was natural & perfect for us. Our guests are still talking about how incredible our ceremony was - a perfect balance of tradition, humor, & personalization. Rabbi Brian helped us customize our ceremony & was sure to translate everything he said in Hebrew into English & to explain the significance of certain parts of the ceremony so that everyone felt included. My favorite part of our wedding day was the Bedeken - the veiling ceremony. This happened immediately prior to the ceremony & was so special - almost meditative in a way. Rabbi Brian truly has a gift in what he does & it has been such an honor to get to know him!

We were incredibly fortunate to have Rabbi Brian as a co-officiant at our interfaith wedding. From the very beginning, he was warm, communicative, and deeply respectful of both of ...

our traditions. He took the time to walk us through all of our options, helping us understand what elements could be included and how to thoughtfully blend our faiths. Rabbi Brian went above and beyond to support us throughout the entire planning process — always just a phone call away if we had any questions, big or small. He worked hand in hand with our priest to craft a ceremony that was meaningful, balanced, and truly reflective of who we are as a couple. The result was more than we could have hoped for — a ceremony that felt deeply personal and inclusive. Our guests have not stopped raving about how beautiful and seamless the interweaving of traditions was. We’re so grateful for Rabbi Brian’s guidance, kindness, and collaboration in making our ceremony so special.

rough as he took time to learn about our story, who we are, and what we want to build. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, he listened thoughtfully to how we practice our faith and worked with us to create a ceremony that authentically reflected our traditions and values. His respectful approach made us feel seen and understood, never judged. He worked with us to create a ceremony that perfectly reflected our personal connection to Judaism. Our guests were amazed. His thoughtful guidance and sincere care for our relationship made the entire experience deeply meaningful. We couldn't have asked for a more understanding and compassionate rabbi to help us begin our marriage journey. We recommend him 100%. Thanks Rabbi. - David & Stephanie

We loved working with Rabbi Denker, and can’t wait to continue our relationship with him!

My husband and I were able to spend this special moment our parents and grandparents. When it was time for the ceremony, everything ran on time and smoothly. The ceremony was funny, emotional and heartfelt. Our guests were so impressed with Rabbi Brian. His sense of humor was comforting. My husband and I are so thrilled that Rabbi Brian was able to marry us, and we will continue to have Rabbi Brian a part of our special moments forever!

Rowan E

Rabbi Brian was the absolute perfect officiant for our Mexican-Jewish wedding! It was important to me to have a Jewish wedding, but my husband is not Jewish and did not convert. It...

was difficult to find a Rabbi to marry us, especially one who would not require us to commit to raising our children Jewish and have Judaism be the only religion around the house - a commitment that we were not ready to make. We really wanted to incorporate Mexican tradition into our ceremony and Rabbi Brian did a stellar job at this - not only seamlessly incorporating the specific traditions we mentioned but also making other suggestions that ended up being total hits, like having our mariachi band play Siman Tov u Mazel Tov after we broke the glass! He was lighthearted and funny, but not too funny (as one of our guests put it). So many of our guests raved about the ceremony and specifically about how great Rabbi Brian was - and this came from both our Jewish and non-Jewish friends and family. It was also wonderful to work with a Rabbi who felt closer in age & tradition to us than our grandparents (lol)! From the beginning, we felt like Rabbi Brian understood what we wanted and that he could relate to us. The entire process of getting to know each other and crafting our ceremony was easy and enjoyable. He broke things down into easy choices and decisions, was super flexible, and gave us many opportunities to make things more or less traditional where we wanted to. We also had a last-minute change to our ceremony that Rabbi Brian took in stride and executed perfectly and without asking us any questions, which was SO appreciated with all of the craziness of our wedding day. We are so happy we found Rabbi Brian. It was a blessing to have him officiate our wedding. Overall, we could not recommend Rabbi Brian enough, and we hope to work with him again for future Lifecycle events!
