If you are looking for an officiant who will make your ceremony unforgettable, book Rabbi Akselrad immediately! We wanted a ceremony that felt relaxed, fun and totally 'us,' and he absolutely delivered. His experience and charismatic presence shines through and had our guests laughing one minute and tearing up the next. Rabbi Akselrad completely set the tone for the rest of the night - joyful, celebratory, meaningful, and full of love. He was also a breeze to work with and really spent the time to get to know us leading up to the big day. He answered all our questions and made the whole process stress-free and wonderful all-around. Five stars aren't enough!
We are so grateful to our Rabbi Akselrad for making our wedding ceremony at the Wynn such a beautiful and meaningful part of our special day. From the very beginning, he was warm, thoughtful, professional, and incredibly easy to work with.
He took the time to make the ceremony feel personal to us while honoring the traditions that made the moment so special. His words were heartfelt, the ceremony was beautifully conducted, and so many of our guests commented afterward on how meaningful and memorable it was.
Five stars without hesitation!
