Destination

Where, when and how? Whether it’s Carmel Beach or Big Sur, morning or evening, big or small, how do you envision your wedding day? Cantor Bruner knows how important a special place or time can be, and is flexible with your choices.

Interfaith

The Cantor’s role in facilitating an inter-faith marriage is to offer compassionate and nonjudgmental support. After all, we are more alike than we are different. 

Jewish tradition has much wisdom to offer about finding a partner, advice that is just as relevant to those who intermarry. Rabbi Knopf says, "People of different backgrounds can be oriented to faith in harmonious ways,” and “can sharpen each other in myriad ways.”

LGBTQ

Joining those in love is a privilege given to few, and Cantor Bruner supports and encourages those who want to marry to do so, without bias.

Renewal of Vows 

Cantor Bruner can offer ideas for a unique and intimate service to help you look back on the day of your union, and look forward together in joy and gratitude.

Your wedding ceremony is as individual as you are. Finding the right person to conduct your ceremony and honor your priorities is key.
