Are you a Wedding Planner in the Dominican Republic?

The most important thing for you to know is that I, Rabbi Ancel Salamon, reside in the Dominican Republic! No need to fly me in! I live on the North Shore, with my wife. I do weddings everywhere on the island, traveling to Punta Cana and Las Terrenas and anywhere else you need me to go for a wedding.

Please call me at any of the phone numbers in the sidebar to the left or email me for rates. I do require a deposit to confirm a date. Each wedding is different, each wedding planner works differently, I'm aware of that and I do my best to accomodate you.

Though I am an ordained rabbi - Yoreh-Yoreh and Yadin-Yadin (highest levels of ordination possible), and recognized as a rabbi in Israel, I officiate at all sorts of weddings.

Because I live here in the Dominican Republic, I can often quickly get to a wedding, and also your clients save money by not having to buy airfare for my travel to the island as is usually the case for couples who want a rabbi to officiate at their wedding. Only my inter-island travel costs need to be covered.

I'm available for weddings pretty much anywhere on the island, such as Santo Domingo, Santiago, Punta Cana, Las Terrenas (my wife and assistant is fluent in French and Spanish so we can easily non-denominational your French-only speaking clients or help with communication here on the island).

I am available for the following types of wedding ceremonies - they are not listed in any particular order

Traditional Jewish wedding
Kosher Weddings
Renewal of Vows
Reaffirmation Ceremony

Here are samples of wedding ceremonies that I offer, but know that I will perform your clients' own wedding ceremony according to their deepest wishes and dreams for their special day. I work with the client, conversing on the phone and by email until, together, we come up with the perfect words, the ones that truly represent what the clients wish to convey in their wedding vows. It is their wedding and I truly and fully respect that. You'll find me very patient with this process.

I have written and conducted all kinds of Punta Cana wedding ceremonies in the traditional, spiritual, and non-denominational way.

I pride myself on my flexibility in creating a wedding specifically for each couple and for any setting.

What the Rabbi Offers you, as a wedding planner

Already in the DR - no need to pay for my travel here!
Because I'm already in the DR, you can most likely book me closer to a wedding rather than months ahead if you find yourself in a pinch. Provided I'm not already booked, I will make every effort to accomodate your date even if it's sort of last minute (additional fees may apply).
You'll find samples of wedding ceremonies here, but I can also work with your clients and create a special ceremony for them.
