HOW IS INTERFAITH MINISTRY
EXPRESSED IN A CEREMONY?
 It
used to be that couples married primarily within their own religions.
Today, interfaith marriages are both common and accepted.
When performing a wedding or commitment ceremony, it is my first
priority to represent the spiritual beliefs of the individuals who are
joining together in marriage, and to create a ceremony which is also
reflective of those beliefs. Spirituality is profoundly personal. It
is with great care and dedication that I glean as much information as
I can from each couple so that I can later weave that information into
a ceremony that is both meaningful and sacred. I accomplish this
through face to face interviews, telephone dialogues and written
correspondence. Couples have as much or as little input into their
ceremonies as they prefer. All ceremonies are submitted to couples
prior to the wedding for final editing. Every ceremony is tailored for
the individual couple and is unique and different.
The trend today is to create a ceremony that
uniquely reflects the character, personality and spirituality of the
couple. This is a skill, which requires experience, intuitiveness, and
the ability to make couples feel
safe. This, in turn, allows the couple to relax,
open up and share who they are at a human level. It is this level of
sharing that gives birth to miracles.
