My fiance and I have already booked our church and venue space for 2015, but just realized that it lies on the 2nd day of Rosh Hashanah. About 10 people out of the 300 people we are inviting to the wedding are Jewish. I feel like it is rude to those guests for us to get married on Rosh Hashanah, but it is honestly the most convenient weekend for my fiance and I in 2015. I don't want to change the wedding date, but I will try to if it is horribly offensive.
So, my questions are as follows: How offensive is it to someone who practices Judaism to get a wedding invitation for a Catholic wedding absent-mindedly scheduled for the same date as Rosh Hashanah? Is there something we can do to mitigate the rudeness of having our wedding on Rosh Hashanah (other than having the ceremony after sun-down because the church won't do that)?
Thanks in advance for any input.
