Rabbi Andrea Frank is an Ordained Reform Rabbi. She is approachable and reachable. It will be her honor to officiate your joyous Simcha, your wedding ceremony.  Rabbi Andrea Frank is registered with the New York City County Clerk’s office and have the authority to sign your New York State Marriage License.

The Jewish wedding ceremony is beautiful with its customs with its order of the ceremony. Your wedding ceremony is a memorable moment for when you both sign the Ketubah and recite Hebrew vows to each other under the Chuppah. When you stand under the Chuppah receiving God’s blessings and drinking from the Kiddush cup, both of you will feel the connection of the wedding traditions that are over 2,000 years old.

For Jewish couples and interfaith couples - if one or both of you are Jewish, then I will be happy to officiate your wedding.  Respecting a couple's commitnment to Judaism, no matter how little or how much, as their one faith and agree to raise children Jewish is what makes this Rabbi more than happy to officiate a couple's Jewish Wedding Ceremony.  Sorry, I do not co-officiate.  

If neither of you are Jewish and are seeking a non-religious civil ceremony, this Rabbi can assist.  Non-religious is simple - NOT acknowledging either faith.  No religious customs will be acknowledged in the ceremony. However, there is always room to add a few if they are important to you as a couple.

Available to officiate your wedding ceremony in all locations i.e. reception halls, indoors or outdoors, restaurants, private homes, parks, beaches, museums and destinations.  Serving the tri-state area; New York, Westchester County, Long Island, Queens, Brooklyn, Staten Island, New Jersey, Connecticut. Destination weddings can be arranged as well.

Rabbi Andrea Frank creates personalized ceremonies that reflect the beliefs, traditions, and wishes of each bride and groom.

The ceremony is the beginning of the rest of your life. A thoughtful officiant can help make your ceremony meaningful and give you a memory to treasure.

Do I officiate interfaith ceremonies?
Yes, with couples having the best of intentions choosing Judaism as their one faith and raising their children Jewish.

Can I officiate a non-religious ceremony?
Yes, being registered with the County Clerk’s Office in New York gives me that authority.  Non-religious, Civil Ceremony, is simple - NOT acknowledging either faith.  No religious customs will be acknowledged in the ceremony.  Civil Ceremonies can take place any day of week, weekends except Shabbat for this Rabbi.

Am I registered with the City of New York?
Yes

Can I marry a couple outside of the State of New York?
Yes.  I am an Ordained Reform Rabbi and to always check on the marriage laws of your state.  If an application is requried for Clergy, and there is enough time, credentials and the application can be filed.

 

If you are unafilliated, meaning not belonging to a temple and would like to be married in one, you still can.  There are independent caterers doing business on the premises inside a temple.  Most have contracts with the congregation that they will in fact offer their services to non-congregants.  When a couple uses the caterer and there are no congregational events, the sanctuary is usually available for Jewish wedding ceremonies with an outside Rabbi.

DID YOU KNOW?
Did you know that you can be married any day of the week?  Are you looking for a wedding officiant to go above and beyond the New York City Clerk's office less than 5-minute wedding ceremony?  Contact Rabbi Andrea Frank for your Civil, non-religious, legal wedding. She'll meet you in New York City since she is registered with the Clerk's office to officiate civil weddings as well.  Does this contradict being a Rabbi, not if you look it that way.  Being registered in New York City allows her to uphold the legalalties that is required to be married in New York City and New York State.  It is the law to apply for a marriage license and it is the law that a registered wedding officiant sign that legal document.  Why should a couple who wishes for a non-religious wedding ceremony not enjoy a beautiful, romantic wedding ceremony as well?
