Lesbian & Gay Jewish Wedding Ceremonies

Jewish Weddings & Ritual in New York & California

Just as Jewish couples have changed, Jewish weddings have changed, too. A wedding ceremony custom designed to meet your comfort with Judaism should be the most important element of your wedding day. If you have an interest in making your wedding distinctly yours and distinctly Jewish, Rabbi Postrel will work with you to make your chuppah—the word for both the canopy and ceremony—memorable and unique.

Whether you would like to have a traditional or inventive ceremony or a bit of both, a ketubah designed specifically for you, and to find graceful ways to honor your guests, Rabbi Postrel will get to know you and will find a place for these important ritual and personal elements in your service.

In the Reform Jewish tradition, rabbis have been welcoming interfaith couples for decades. Rabbi Postrel is happy to perform Jewish ceremonies for interfaith couples.

Rabbi Oren J Postrel was ordained at the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in 1993 and holds a Master’s Degree in Hebrew Letters and an BA from U.C. Berkeley. Rabbi Postrel served as the rabbi at Congregation Beth Shalom in Napa from 2007-2010.

Rabbi Oren Postrel offers alternative Jewish experiences, using music, meditation, poetry, dancing and other forms of expression to establish deeper spiritual connection.
