My fiance and I are having a hard time agreeing on whether we should have two officiants or not. Here is the scenario..

My fiance and I are having a hard time agreeing on whether we should have two officiants or not. Here is the scenario.. I've always wanted my brother to perform my ceremony (he's a youth pastor), however my fiance wants his Dad to officiate because he's a pastor as well. I'm very open to having two officiants, however my fiance doesn't want two because he feel it would be awkward and doesn't want to hurt his Dad's feelings. Is there a way to meet in the middle? If you have either been to a wedding with two officiants or had two officiants perform your ceremony, how did they split it up? Any advice on how to talk about this with my fiance so that he might feel more comfortable with two? Help please Smiley smile
