Monica Justine Felkel and Brian Taylor Goldstein were married Friday in a civil ceremony at the New York City Municipal Building. Soraida Burgos, a staff member of the city clerk’s office, officiated. On Sunday, D. Michael Blachly, a Universal Life minister and a friend of the couple, is to lead another ceremony, drawing on Jewish and Christian traditions, at the Beach Point Club in Mamaroneck, N.Y.
I know you draw water and you draw pictures.
But traditions?
It is usually traditional to marry within one's faith.
================================
Tania Wahlstedt, a former ballet dancer, and Ian Schrager, the hotelier, were married Saturday evening in the couple’s penthouse in a building that Mr. Schrager’s company is constructing in New York. Rabbi David M. Posner officiated.
Now, that is an original location.
A bit narcissistic but original.
And the Rabbi? Rabbi David M. Posner is senior rabbi of Congregation Emanu-El of the City of New York and Women of Reform Judaism, the women’s affiliate of the North American Reform movement. That's impressive

Someone besides me likes to think of the sociological implications of the wedding announcements.
Last week the NYT had a feature story on a Hollywood couple who got married in an elaborate Jewish ceremony. Both families were estastic.
Of course, the catch was they were both gay men. One was the producer of Will and Grace. They already had a surrogate mother give birth to their twin daughters.
