I’ll have a double helping of upbeat spirituality – hold the dogma!
Reading back over some of my past blogs, I was reminded of one of my all time favorites. Given that the topic is so prevalent again, today, and I have so many new readers, I wanted to bring it out of hiding, and into the forefront again. Enjoy!

Delia and Mitch’s weeklong wedding celebration

Filed under Featured Content, Jewish, Weddings
No rests for the weary! Brett and Andrea’s wedding was certainly a highlight last weekend, but the rush back across the alley to be back for Sunday morning’s event was well worth the drive!
Delia called me just a few weeks ago. Her “real” wedding was planned for March 7th, this coming Sunday, but her in-laws, [...]
My Hanukkah-Shabbat Rockin eve at TBE Boca
Last night was so much fun! Once again, I enjoyed myself thoroughly at TBE Boca!
A couple of weeks ago, I was there to see one of my favorite Jewish music artists, Julie Silver, and the night was magic.
Last night, Dan Nichols performed and co-led services with Steve Dropkin, and the TBE staff. I adore Dan. [...]

My biggest challenge this year has been to maintain any consistency in my writing. I seem to get really inspired to write, and post a ton of blogs at one time, and then I get so busy, that every time I go to write, I am wiped out clean of any inspiration to be creative, [...]
A Magnificent Chuppa gallery, from Flickr
Woke up this morning and was checking out the Jewish Wedding Network’s recent activity, as I’m really hoping their site does well!
I came across a Chuppah photo gallery, and wow – some of these are amazing.
In my opinion, Seth & Dana’s chuppah still takes the first place award of weddings I have officiated, but some [...]
Reflections on Passover
Well, with Passover behind me, I can finally breathe a bit, and settle back into writing. I have been so fortunate to do some great events lately, but Passover was stellar, and I’m so excited to have had the honor to return to Broken Sound for the 2nd year in a row.
Once again, F&B Director [...]
1000 Mitzvahs
My friend, Linda, is wrapping up a very important project. I know I have mentioned her here, and she is certainly on my blogroll, but in honor of her 1000th Mitzvah, I needed to send out a reminder.
Linda, who lives in Portland, Oregon, decided to perform 1000 mitzvahs in honor of her father’s memory. For [...]
Taking a moment..

I just looked at the date, and realized we are halfway through March, and I haven’t even finished blogging about February, yet. March has already been a very fun month for me, as I just got back from spending a few personal days in Atlanta, and had such a great time.
When I came back from [...]
You Don’t Look Jewish-The Hebrew Mamita!
My friend Mindy just sent me this video, and I just had to share, just to share.
How many of us have been told “You don’t look JEWISH!” I suppose I’ve always wondered what that meant, and felt strangely responseless upon hearing it, perhaps because I just couldn’t quite understand the purpose of the statement.
Here, Vanessa [...]
The greatest Ketubah site and more..
Several months ago, I received a marketing package from Esta Asteroff, of MP Artworks, telling me about her clergy referral program. I have to admit, I may not have taken notice of the site without it, but, after closely looking at her products and prices, I decided to begin recommending her site to my clients.
Several [...]
