Still there are a small number ofrabbis out there who will officiate foryou Some are bona fide rabbis Butthere are also individuals in themarket place who call themselvesrabbis and who officiate at interfaithweddings even though they have notundergone any type of serioustraining and indeed have very littleknowledge They have obtainedcredent ia ls f rom unaccredi tedinstitutions and usually spend verylittle time studying much of anythingJust as you would not want youra t to rney doc to r p lumber o rmechanic to be someone who hasearned his or her credentials on thefly it is probably not a good idea tohave an officiating rabbi who did Itis not hard to distinguish between thebona fide rabbis and those who arenot If a personrsquos rabbinic ordinationwas obtained after a rigorous courseof study lasting at least five years hisor her ordination is most likelyacceptable If a personrsquos ldquoordinationrdquofollowed something less rigorous ndashthere are actual cases of peoplebecoming ldquoordainedrdquo after studyingfor just a few weeks or taking sometype of take home test ndash buyerbeware Finding the Rabbindash Once you find arabbi you want to make sure that thatrabbi is the rabbi for you You donrsquotjust want a rabbi who is willing toofficiate you want the right rabbi theone who will officiate a ceremonythat will leave you and your familieswith pleasant and wonderful lastingmemories Compromising on qualityis just not an option So what shouldyou look for to make sure you havefound the right person The most important thing is to makesure that you find a rabbi who is trulyinterested in you as a couple andmakes it clear in word and action thatthe wedding is about you and thecelebration of your love for eachother He or she should take time toget to know you as individuals and asa couple After all how can awedding ceremony be personalized towho you are if your rabbi does nottake the time to get to know you aspersons He or she should besomeone who is warm friendly trulypassionate about people someonewith a good sense of humor who doesnot take him or herself too seriouslyThis will help him or her create withyou a ceremony that has that sought-after blend of seriousness andlightheartedness something thatsometimes eludes officiants The ideal rabbi is the one who willbuild the ceremony around you nottry to fit or ldquoshoehornrdquo you into apreconceived notion of a ceremonythat he or she already has The rightrabbi is someone whom you wonrsquothesitate to tell what you want andwith whom you feel comfortablesharing what you donrsquot want He or
