So my fiance and I will be having an inter-faith ceremony. I'm catholic and he is Jewish. I don't know a lot about the Jewish faith so I'm hoping to get some basic information. He is not religious what so ever and neither is his family. However, my mother is dead set about having a priest and a rabbi. Not having a priest and rabbi is not an option. So we are doing this to please her.
So my question is, when are you allowed to get married. Our ceremony is set for Sat Oct 22, 2011 at 4:15pm. I know you can't have it on a Friday - but this time/date should be ok right?
Also he doesn't belong to a synagogue so typically what is the fee? We are going to have to pay both officiates and don't have tons of money to be spending on this. We already have to pay $600 to have the ceremony at the venue.
Finally, do the Jewish require any pre-martial classes? We don't want to do this either.
Any help would be great. I'm tried reading websites but they don't really answer the questions I'm looking answers for. If this fails, we will get a justice of the peace. Thanks!
