Congratulations! Based in Long Beach, Long Island, I have easy access to all of New York City, New Jersey, and Connecticut. In addition, destination weddings are definitely within my portfolio. I have been officiating weddings since 2005. I have much experience in performing civil weddings, Interfaith weddings, same-sex weddings, religious weddings, and indeed ceremonies of all types. My highest priority is to make the ceremony just right for you. Whether it’s including personal vows or folding in elements from different faiths, my desire is to match your vision for your special day.
Together, we will spend sufficient time and preparation to ensure the perfect ceremony. From traditional to nontraditional and everything in between, we can construct an experience you, your families, and your guests will always cherish.
Remember, I’m available for pre and post-marital counseling as well.
Your love and happiness inspire me to be the best wedding officiant possible. I invite your questions, and best of luck as you begin this journey.
Rabbi Jack Zanerhaft is a Rabbi/ Officiant based in New York City.

I have been officiating weddings since 2005. My goal is to make this moment memorable and meaningful. I am passionate about helping new couples begin their journey in joy.
Both my parents were the sole survivors of their families from the Holocaust, their luck of finding each other and their enduring love is an ongoing inspiration.
Flexibility, inclusion, good listening and preparation has led to many beautiful ceremonies and celebrations that I have had the honor of officiating. Hoping yours is the next one.

We are so incredibly grateful to Rabbi Jack for the beautiful, meaningful, and heartfelt ceremony he led on our wedding day. From the very beginning, Rabbi Jack brought such warmth...
, wisdom, and intention to the entire process, and it truly meant the world to us.
His guidance helped us create a ceremony that felt deeply personal and reflective of who we are as a couple. The way Rabbi told our story, wove in tradition, and spoke with such sincerity made the moment unforgettable—not only for us, but for everyone who was there to celebrate with us.
We feel so lucky to have had him standing with us as we began this new chapter. His presence brought a sense of calm, joy, and spirituality that we will carry with us always.
Thank you Rabbi Jack for everything you did to make our ceremony so special. It was truly perfect.
With heartfelt appreciation! We recommend Rabbi Jack with this highest ratings.
