• Find officiant(s) who want to be a part of an interfaith ceremony.
• It is your day. Be creative and work with your officiant to get great ideas.
• Have important conversations before the wedding (i.e. how would you want to raise children, what holidays would you celebrate, how will you make decisions, who will provide you with support, and do you have interfaith couples you know who can offer advice?)

It is important to strike the right balance for many couples, and the best Miami Beach wedding rabbis will have many ideas about how to best accomplish this to satisfy everyone. He can even involve the families if that is what the couple wishes, enabling them to be a part of this special day.
