Seeking wedding officiant in NYC

My partner and I are planning a wedding very soon, and we are looking for someone to officiate. We are both Jewish women, not affiliated with any particular community now, but we both grew up very religious in the Chabad-Lubavitch community and then became OTD but are still very Jewish. We would love to incorporate some traditions from our former community's weddings, but we're not very particular about whether the officiant is conservative, reform, or something else. The wedding will be in Queens.

Do you know of anyone who would be interested in officiating? We don't have a lot of money, but we're happy to pay or make a donation to a congregation. We would like a rabbi, but it doesn't have to be. Thanks in advance for your help!

Looking for Dr in NYC that takes Fidelis Medicaid

I am searching for a doctor in NYC, either gynecologist or endocrinologist, with a specialty in PCOS/PMOS who takes Fidelis Medicaid. I'd really appreciate any leads if you know of someone. Thank you so much!

Where to find Russian rose gold?

I am in love with the tone of Russian rose gold. I have one ring that's been in my family for a long time, from former USSR/Russia, that's the same rose-yellow tone. We don't really have other old gold in our family.

I would love to find some more gold of this tone, whether it is vintage/antique jewelry, or modern pieces made in a Soviet style with that Russian rose gold color. Where can I find this?

We said yes!!!

My fiancee proposed to me in the park overlooking the water in the afternoon, and then I proposed to her in the evening in front of our favorite museum. We got matching moissanite rings! Same just different sizes. We're in love with them.

We ordered them from Provence and worked with Jason to create them. We're so happy with our experience working with him. Not sponsored, we are just so happy.

A guy was passing by and took a pic of us mid-proposal! Then walked over and emailed us the pics 😂 he really made our day!!

What are the stones in this necklace?

I found this necklace while thrifting, with an identical necklace that had amethyst stones. Any idea what these stones are?

Jewelry I thrifted

Was very excited about this haul! Found all of these at a thrift store. First pic is all of my jewelry goodies together. Second picture is an amethyst necklace I found. Third pic is very similar to the amethyst necklace, but I'm not sure what crystal it is. Don't know anything about the ring in pic 4, but I'm pretty sure the ring in pic 5 is stainless steel. I'm pretty sure the pendant in pics 6 and 7 is sugilite! It is marked 18k gold plated.

Curious about this thrifted necklace

I thrifted this necklace and I'm curious about what stone this is on the pendant. I think that the chain part of the necklace was made separately, although I bought the two of them together, since the metal parts of the chain are significantly different than the pendant.

There is a stamp that says 18k gold plated on the pendant. Could this be sugilite? Another stone? It's definitely not plastic. Thinking of gifting this to my mom for her birthday, with a nicer chain, and I think she'd appreciate knowing what stone it is. I'd appreciate any help, thank you!
