Kosher Gospel Rockin' in the Temple

Its been cold and rainy here in Oakland CA for the past week and there seems to be more rain

on it's way for the next four or five days. Here's a little dancing your prayers music by Josh Nelson to wake

you up and keep you warm. I experienced him live last year at the opening night of the Jewish Music Festival,

here in Oakland. He got us all rockin' in the aisle. If you love this sort of thing, do not miss him when he

comes to your town. You'll perk up and be inspired.

May your light continue to shine bright and strong this holiday season.

Happy Hanukah everyone!

Catholic Priests and Outdoor Weddings

Recently a bride asked the question: Can we have a priest perform our outdoor wedding ceremony?

It is possible to have a Catholic Priest perform your outdoor wedding. We plan these all the time. We're planning a co-officiating ceremony day after Thanksgiving with a Roman Catholic Priest and a Rabbi on the patio of Kohl Mansion in Silicon Valley CA.

* Some of our couples choose a non-Roman Catholic priest. They are very flexible with the content of your ceremony and you can personalize the ceremony to fit your style. There is usually no requirement to meet for couple's counseling.

* For those couples that want to have a Roman Catholic Priest to perform their outdoor ceremony, it is a little more difficult to find the priest, but we have done this a number of times in the last few years. Also, there is paperwork involved that takes a couple months to process and you must meet with the priest several times prior to your ceremony.

We're based in the San Francisco Bay Area or Sonoma Napa Wine Country and have a number of Catholic Priests on our referral list.

For more information on finding a Catholic priest to perform your outdoor ceremony contact Yehudit@asacredevent.com

Jewish Wedding Ceremony Playlist on Itunes

Many of our couples ask us about the music for their ceremonies. Yehudit has selected a variety of different instrumental pieces that would work nicely in the prelude [prior to the ceremony while guests are being seated], processional [walk down the aisle, and recessional [leaving the ceremony]. The most popular songs during the wedding have a couple instrument versions harp, piano, flute, guitar and strings. All of these songs can be worked in with other Classical pieces which is ideal for an interfaith ceremony.
