Rabbi Bill Kaplan

There are moments in life that ask to be marked—moments of love, growth, transition, and memory

I’m Rabbi Bill Kaplan, and I help shape those moments into sacred experiences. Through weddings, bar and bat mitzvahs, and other life cycle ceremonies, I work with you to craft something deeply personal—rooted in Jewish tradition and alive in today’s world.

I also share Jewish wisdom through Edible Judaism (the flora of the Torah) and support organizations through consulting—but my primary focus is you, and the moments that matter most.
