Rabbi Mark Getman was everything we could have ever imagined in a wedding officiant — and more. My wife is Jewish and I’m not, and from the very beginning Mark made our interfaith ...
marriage feel warm, meaningful, inclusive, and deeply personal. He struck the perfect balance between honoring Jewish tradition and making the ceremony accessible and comfortable for everyone in the room.
Mark is incredibly warm, personable, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in the people he works with. Our wedding ceremony felt authentic, joyful, and memorable because of him. If we could give him 10 stars, we absolutely would.
Since our wedding, we’ve continued to involve Mark in our family’s life, including Hebrew naming ceremonies, and we look forward to having him involved in every meaningful milestone where it makes sense. He’s not just an officiant — he’s someone you genuinely want as part of your family’s story.
We cannot recommend Rabbi Getman highly enough.
Response from Rabbi officiant on 02/09/2026
Thank you both so much for these incredibly kind words. It was an absolute honor to stand ...
with you under the Chuppah and help blend your traditions into a ceremony that felt uniquely 'you.' What brings me the most joy, however, is that our journey didn't end at the wedding. Being invited back for your family's Hebrew naming ceremonies has been a true highlight for me. I am so grateful to be a small part of your family’s story and look forward to celebrating many more milestones with you all.
