I am glad to meet with you at a mutually convenient time and location for a no obligation, bicultural wedding consultation.

Bicultural wedding expert Rabbi Genn, our Executive Director, encapsulated our approach when he said, "Interfaith marriage, and blended families are Good for society. They help bridge the differences which separate us, and emphasize the very powerful idea that we are all God's children!" As a bicultural wedding organization we believe in empowering bicultural couples, so that they can celebrate their wedding, and not repress their heritages, be they Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Jainist, Hindu, Buddhist, Taoist, etc.... We encourage them to involve bicultural family and Ethnic wedding traditions in the celebration as well, so that the bicultural wedding moment has authenticity as its hallmark. Rabbi Genn has consistently emphasized that the "people" should be the celebrants, with clergy helping to facilitate, as needed.

Offering wedding, the Rabbi can perform Jewish, Interfaith, Non-Denominational and civil marriage ceremonies, bicultural counseling, destination weddings, private Bar/Bat Mitzvah services, bicultural baby naming ceremonies, commitment ceremonies, nuptials, and bicultural funeral services.

Specializing in the Jewish and bicultural community, he was ordained as an Orthodox Rabbi at Yeshiva University, he served in the Conservative movement, i.e. The United Synagogue, as a Congregational Rabbi and as a Day School Principal. Over time he moved to a Reconstructionist approach, and to leading M'vakshe Derekh, a Reconstructionist Congregation in Scarsdale, N.Y. Currently he views himself as bicultural post-denominational, and enjoys sharing with people coming from diverse backgrounds.
