Has anyone used Rabbi Lefkowitz?   http://www.weddingrabbi.com/

My aunt recommended him to me, but I wanted to see if any of you knotties have heard of him or used him.

Would appreciate the feedback.

I'm looking for a reform rabbi that will perform a ceremony before sunset and will not require any strict jewish practices (my fiance said no way to the yamulkah!).

I've called around and some require you to join their temple, etc. I'm just looking for someone to perform a quick, simple ceremony and not charge an arm and a leg.

Thanks!

    I am using Rabbi Lefkowitz in November for my wedding. We got his name from the Knot, my coordinator, some of my vendors, and even some couples we knwe that just got married.
    My FI and I have met with him multiple times now, and I have talked with him on the phone numerous times.We also went to his Yom Kippur services this past month and saw him in action. He is sooooooo easy going. Almost to a fault for this over-concerning, detail-oriented, overly-emotional bride.
    He is soo great. He has given us the breakdown of what is tradtition and customary, but at the end of the day, has told us that this is our day and we need to do what makes us happy as a couple. The only thing he requires to get married are the vows and the rings. Everything else is our choice.
    He is very affordable and very accountable. Every time I have called or emailed him regarding my ketubah or my program, he has called me right back with the answer I needed. He is flexible and soo friendly and funny.
    We can't wait for our wedding day and to have him officiate! Good luck!!

    I am not very religious and using Rabbi Kay from Ohev. I got a lot of recommendations to use him.
