Interfaith Ceremony Rabbi and Pastor

Hi all,

My fiance and I are having an interfaith ceremony next year in Rockland County. Any recos on rabbis or pastors? We can book people separately or together.

Thanks!

    We are using Rabbi Hirshal Jaffee. It seems that everyone knows him and has great things to say. We are using my churchs priest. He was willing to do it and doesnt mind the inter-faith. We already went thru the pre-cana and all our meetings with him.

    My husband and I were going to have an interfaith wedding, but my rabbi wouldn't go for it and neither would my husband's priest (and he's a family friend). The only rabbi that I have heard will do this is the one that the PP recommended. My fiance and I ended up scratching the interfaith idea and went with a nondenominational ceremony. I hope it works out for you!

    If you end up going with one officiant, I'm using Mitch the Minister - he's Jewish, his wife is Catholic and he loves weddings.  He's incoporating both Jewish and Catholic traditions into our ceremony.  My FI really wanted a rabbi, but we are getting married on a Saturday night and I had a feeling it would be difficult to find someone to perform the service then.  Plus, many priests won't travel outside the church.  HTH and GL!

    Hello,

    I'm a rabbi who officiates at interfaith wedding ceremonies.  If you haven't, already, found someone, please check out my web page at www.spirituallymeaningfulweddings.com/">http://www.spirituallymeaningfulweddings.com ot just spirituallymeaningfulweddings.com
     I can, probably, also find a priest or minister to co-officiate.

    Congratulations.
    Rabbi Dr. Dan S. Wiko
