Best Rabbi for all occasions

Hi Rabbi Wendy,

We just wanted to reach out to you and thank you for putting on such a special service. Under the sad circumstance you brought enlightenment to everyone about our Mom. Everyone we have spoken to has commented on how nice the service was. We thought so too. From your warm telling of Joan’s life to the Wings Beneath my Wings it was perfect. As we reflect on the service I guess my only regret is that we didnt record it, if that was even possible, so we could relive it again.

Thank you so much for being a part of our family for so many years. In good and sad times. You officiated and helped celebrate at my parents wedding vow renewal on 09/09/99 and also at my Dad’s funeral in 2009.

Thank you!

Rabbi Wendy

Rabbi Wendy came to conduct our wedding service almost last minute , when our current Rabbi ,Lisa Bock , was not able to do our wedding after several months of planning!
I was not given any referrals, but happened to call a rabbi from Ventura who gave me Wendy’s name.
Rabbi Wendy agreed to help us out last minute- very professional, beautiful voice and a warm person.
Extremely committed when she agreed to do this for us!
Very prompt, knowledgeable and competent !

Wonderful Rabbi for Wedding

Rabbi Wendy Spears did a wonderful job officiating our interfaith wedding. She was very helpful meeting us ahead of time in person and over phone to plan our special wedding ceremony.
We loved Rabbi Spear's attention to detail and help planning our vows through texts and readings. Our family loved the wedding ceremony and shared they enjoyed spending time with the Rabbi during the reception. We would highly recommend Rabbi Spears to be part of a special event and wedding day!

I LOVED working with Rabbi Wendy!! Her weddings are beautiful, personal to each couple, and a pleasure to witness. I also greatly appreciated how she asked the guests to be in the moment, and not consumed with taking their own photos during the ceremony... Wish every officiant did this, makes the photographers job so much easier!!
