Episode 354: Remaking Jewish Weddings - Jen Gubitz
Judaism Unbound - A podcast by Institute for the Next Jewish Future
Categories:
Jen Gubitz is the founder and executive director of Modern JewISH Couples -- an organization that supports committed couples on the pathway to partnership, marriage, and beyond. She joins Dan Libenson and Lex Rofeberg for a conversation about Jewish weddings that asks a number of questions. What typically happens, and what should happen, before the wedding day? Why is it not only okay, but wonderful, when non-clergy officiate Jewish weddings? What does the ritual of a wedding ceremony actually serve to do -- what transformation does it effect -- in 2022, when many traditional understandings of what a wedding does no longer resonate?
