am getting married it is an
interfaith marriage. My fiance is Jewish and I am catholic. I read Rabbi Devon A.
Lerner's sample interfaith wedding and would love to have our ceremony with a
priest and a rabbi, but I can't find two people willing to perform the
ceremony. Would you know anyone that could help me locate a rabbi and a
priest that have done this before.
Unfortunately, it can be quite
difficult to locate officiants of two such diverse religions who
are willing to perform a wedding together. You don't mention
where you are located. If there are wedding coordinators in
your area, you might try calling one and asking if they can
recommend someone to help you.
Since only one of the officiants
will actually sign the marriage license, the other person
doesn't have to be a licensed minister. Therefore, you might
find a Catholic deacon or someone in the Jewish community who is
willing to "represent" their religious community at the
wedding. This would give you more flexibility in the wording of
your interfaith service.
Best wishes to you.
