we are having the rabbi/chazzan do the 7 blessings, etc, and during the reception we'll have a diff't rabbi do the 7 blessings, and benching, and an uncle do the motzi. (i should have listed that before the benching hehe). we will have the rabbi/chazzan sign the ketubah as we are having orthodox ceremony and there are restrictions on who can sign (need to be fully observant, etc), and we will honour two other people with signing the civil license, and a few will have honours during the auf ruf aliyot.
