Facts About Jewish Interfaith Wedding LA

By Frank Price


Finding a soulmate in its own right is not easily done although at times this happens easier than realised in Los Angeles, California. With the advent of the Internet and with it the world becoming a little smaller, Jewish Interfaith Wedding LA happens more often than thought. A need has evolved in this modern era of computers and this need is more so the norm than it was decades ago.

Not all Rabbis will officiate and interfaith wedding but some will. A Rabbi is the spiritual leader of a community and it is the normal course of events, that he will officiate at Jewish weddings only which is permissible by the Torah or as it is commonly called, the Bible. In the Torah it is written by law that a man may only marry someone who is Jewish.

This is because of numerous reasons as it is written in the Written and Oral laws of the bible known in Hebrew as the Torah. So it is good to do some homework if not familiar with the ins and outs of this ceremony in accordance with Jewish Law. One way to circumvent these restrictions is to appoint a judge to do the wedding and ask if some of the traditions can be thrown into it.

It stands to reason especially when delving a little deeper as to why Rabbis will not officiate at an interfaith celebration. A groom, during the ceremony, has to recite words that have been handed down through the centuries. He must say that he is betrothed to the woman in accordance with the law of Moses and of Israel. Obviously this can still be included if the couple so wishes even at a non religious wedding.

This obviously cannot be said at an interfaith wedding where a Rabbi is officiating a kosher or permissible ceremony according to Law. So it is with this in mind that some other vehicle is found to perform this duty on their special day. With this in mind, a lot of research can be done quite easily on the Internet as to what a couple would like included or excluded.

Some other traditions that may be included are ones that have been with the faith since time immemorial. One of these is the Sheva Brachot or Seven Blessings as it is translated. These are said during the wedding service whilst the community or attendees respond with Amen. They can be left out but it is always nice especially if wanting to have a ceremony with a Jewish flavour.

One of the reasons that interfaith ceremonies are in need today is because of the Internet. There are many dating sites for any religious denomination to get involved in and this is the number one reason that couples find themselves stuck with the problem of interfaith marriages. Years ago, this would not have been a problem in communities that follow the Jewish Religion.

Whatever the situation is there are ways to solve problems incurred. There are sites on the Internet or World Wide Web that offer solutions to problems. An Interfaith union is not something new and has been occurring for some time and many people have gone this route. All is not lost and there is no reason why, this day turns out to be the special day that it is.
