We found Rabbi Miller through 18doors.org, and we were so glad that we did. Rabbi Miller was unbelievable to work with. We looked forward to every meeting that we had with her in the lead-up to our wedding because she made every conversation feel so fun, relaxed, and deeply meaningful. She also guided us through the planning process for our ceremony in a way that made space for our Jewish and Christian backgrounds while fore-fronting the things that were meaningful to us.
The result was that our work with Rabbi Miller was our favorite part of the wedding planning process, and our ceremony felt beautiful for us and our families in the moment, and afterwards, almost every single one of our many guests came up to us to express how beautiful and moving the ceremony was for them. Almost none of the guests at our wedding had experienced a Jewish ceremony before, and every person felt included in the ceremony and able to understand each part of it thanks to Rabbi Miller. We are so grateful that we were able to be married by Rabbi Miller. She made the start of our marriage beautiful, inclusive, moving, and "haimish" -- the rare combination of cozy, fun, and meaningful that we had hoped that our wedding ceremony would be.

Rabbi Miller officiated our wedding in fall 2024. She did a wonderful job and we are very glad to have worked with her. Rabbi Miller was very responsive whenever we had a question, and has a wedding ceremony script with multiple options that she worked with us to tailor to our individual goals (we are not particularly religious and had a Reform ceremony). She also provided counseling and some great practical advice about the ceremony based on her experience (on our young flower girl, breaking of the glass, etc.). The ceremony was beautiful, and multiple guests came up to us afterwards to tell us so!

Rabbi Miller was a joy to work with throughout the entire process! She made our wedding ceremony so personal, meaningful, and full of heart. She also made the pre-wedding process so effortless and just enjoyable to meet with her and plan. We couldn’t have asked for a better Rabbi. We could not recommend her more!!

Rabbi Miller was a dream to work with throughout our wedding planning and wedding ceremony. She got to know me and my partner so well, and made us feel part of her world and community.
All the guests were raving about the ceremony she helped us create, and she made the day truly magical. I cannot say enough good things about working with her!

Rabbi Miller officiated at my daughter's wedding on 5/25/23 at the Stone House at Stirling Ridge. She made the ceremony very warm and memorable. The ceremony was fantastic! I couldn't have asked for a warmer, kinder, Rabbi with a wonderful voice. Thank you Rabbi Miller!

Rabbi Miller provided a beautiful ceremony for us. We appreciated how she involved us in customizing the ceremony to accommodate our degree of religiousness. She incorporated all of the Jewish wedding traditions, while making it feel more modern to fit our more reform upbringings.

Rabbi Miller performed an absolutely beautiful wedding ceremony for us! Many of our family and friends complimented us on how special it was. Rabbi Miller worked with us upfront and presented many different ceremony options and styles, she truly customizes it to fit exactly what you are looking for. Whether you want it to lean more religious or less religious she has suggestions for all of the different ways you can approach it and she explains the meaning behind or context to every option. Rabbi Miller also has special ways that she personalizes the ceremony and makes it unique to you and your vision. She also guided us through all the paperwork that had to be done, where/how to look for the right Ketuba to meet our needs and truly made the whole process easy and clear. We loved working with Rabbi Miller and highly recommend her!

Working with Rabbi Miller was a great experience. We unfortunately are a coronavirus wedding couple and our original wedding date was 7/4/20. We had a large celebration planned with all of our friends and family. We ended up keeping our date this year and had an intimate ceremony with our close family. Rabbi Miller helped us design our ceremony this year, walking us through all of the traditions we could incorporate now and which we wanted to save for our second wedding. It was a beautiful ceremony! We can't wait to have her officiant our wedding again with all of our loved ones present!

Really loved working with Rabbi Miller! She was very easygoing and willing to take all our feedback into consideration. We had numerous guests compliment our ceremony and the way that Rabbi Miller conducted it. We are not religious and in fact, we sometimes say we are "Jew...ish" :)...and Rabbi Miller was able to make our ceremony less religious, but still culturally meaningful. Definitely, recommend working with her. She is delightful.

Ellie was so great! Most of our guests had never attended a Jewish wedding before and she made sure that everyone knew what was going on. So many people came up to us after and commented on what a beautiful ceremony it was. 10/10!!

Rabbi Miller was so warm and made our wedding ceremony so special and unique to us as a couple. My husband and I have differing religious backgrounds and Rabbi Miller was incredibly accommodating with both teaching him the meaning behind pieces of a traditional Jewish wedding ceremony, and open to adapting to make everyone comfortable and happy. On our actual wedding day, Rabbi Miller made everyone in the family feel special and included, and was flexible with timing when rain posed a threat to our lakeside wedding. We may have set a speed record on the seven blessings to avoid downpour at the end, but we got the ceremony of our dreams thanks to Rabbi Miller!

Rabbi Miller provided us with the beautiful, intimate, and personal ceremony that we envisioned. We had an idea of what we wanted out of the ceremony, but Rabbi Miller really helped this come to life, as we met for the first time and talked about ourselves as a couple, individuals, and what we wanted out of marriage and our ceremony. I've known Rabbi Miller since a young age, but she immediately made my husband feel comfortable. He felt at ease sharing personal things and feeling connected during this special process. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful ceremony and loved having her a part of it.

Rabbi Miller was excellent at accommodating our needs for a small, intimate wedding. She was always available for questions and even took on extra duties as she sang the processional herself.
