			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Multifaith, or interfaith as they are often described, weddings have a bad reputation of being very tricky and challenging to plan.  Certainly, there are challenging aspects, but with a good attitude and open paths of communication your multifaith wedding can be one of the most memorable and touching that guests have ever attended.</p>
<div style="text-align: justify;">One of the most difficult planning aspects of a multifaith ceremony is securing clergy people who are willing to marry you.   For most Jewish brides and grooms, Reform Rabbis will be your only option, and many of them will not marry you with a clergy person of another denomination.  Similarly, Catholic priests have a number of rules that could prevent them from marrying a multifaith couple.  However, there are priests, rabbis, and ministers out there that will be open and very supportive to the idea.  In fact, since these clergy people are far and few between, they tend to go the extra mile and really get to know you, which contributes to an even more intimate ceremony.  You just need the perseverance or the help of a knowledgeable wedding planner to find them.<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y8Wv3MfU3Gk/ScW2kAlNTRI/AAAAAAAAAIw/Oa6IZIsMp3o/s1600-h/0697+Linder.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5315855664928345362" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y8Wv3MfU3Gk/ScW2kAlNTRI/AAAAAAAAAIw/Oa6IZIsMp3o/s640/0697+Linder.JPG" style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt;" /></a></div>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The struggle to find clergy and the detailed conversations that follow after you find them can actually be extremely beneficial to the bride and groom.  For one, they force the couple to discuss and answer some tough questions, which have probably already come up to some extent.  When you have more than one person marrying you, this means twice the premarital counseling and twice the excuse to delve into those sensitive subjects.<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y8Wv3MfU3Gk/ScW0s76AL_I/AAAAAAAAAIo/MoImkflGElk/s1600-h/0599+Linder.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5315853619268956146" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y8Wv3MfU3Gk/ScW0s76AL_I/AAAAAAAAAIo/MoImkflGElk/s200/0599+Linder.JPG" style="display: block; height: 200px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 134px;" /></a>These are really the only two challenging aspects of the process.  The actual planning of the ceremony and the combining of two traditions can be very fun and personal.  In short, multifaith weddings bring out the best of both worlds.   You are weaving together the thread of two traditions that is representative of who you are as a couple.</p>
