About
On WeddingWire since 2013
I am a wedding officiant located in Petaluma, California who specializes in Jewish wedding ceremonies. I weave Jewish traditions with personal elements of each couple into a unique and meaningful ceremony. I approach each couple and ceremony with respect and honor for culture, beliefs and other intimate values. I pay special attention to include wedding guests who may or may not be Jewish.
In my over 100 weddings, most are interfaith, several have been co-officiated with clergy of other traditions or religions, including Hindu priests, Protestant ministers and Catholic priests. In those--as in all-weddings, it is important to me that no one lies under the chuppah--so everyone is represented as authentically as possible.
I explain all the rituals so that both you and your guests can access the spiritual depths they represent and present the love you share.
Services Offered
I personalize each ceremony experience by meeting multiple times with each couple to know and understand your story and desires for the ceremony. I am available to perform officiating services for vow renewals, civil unions, non-religious, single religion and interfaith ceremonies. As a rabbi, I am a licensed wedding officiant.

Message vendorReviews of Rabbi Meredith Cahn
Highly Recommend!
She was very up front about what parts of the ceremony were non-negotiable and which parts were flexible. Any time that I raised concerns about any part of the ceremony design, Rabbi Meredith tried to understand the reasoning behind those concerns, and then either agreed with me to change the ceremony or explained why we should keep things as-is and convinced me! I had initially been skeptical about the officiant’s address, but on the day of, I loved it: I was cracking up at how she wove our words together, and I thought the message that she added to tie it all together was beautiful.
Rabbi Meredith was also a huge hit among our guests, especially the non-Jews! I think they really appreciated her explanations for each of the customs. So many people came up to us during the reception and were raving about her. Thanks again to Rabbi Meredith for making our ceremony so special.
Thoughtful and heartfelt!
Great experience!

Meredith was warm and enthusiastic about the Wedding that we worked together at in Lake Tahoe! It was a joy to be in her presence and we felt very comfortable around her. Thanks Meredith for the sweet words you shared for us on here! We are about to share the Highlight Film from their wedding, it's so good!! See you around! All our Best, Zachariah and Team at Stillwater Cinematography
Rabbi Meredith conducted the most beautiful, articulate, funny, meaningful, entertaining, and educational ceremony I have ever been witness to, and I have been shooting weddings for 14 years. She was so funny, so present and so articulate. Her ability to talk about the couple's history and what they meant to each other was amazingly beautiful. I highly recommend her to anyone wanting a meaningful and unforgettable ceremony that will be a pleasure to both them and their guests. She will enrich and deepen your wedding experience. As a wedding photographer I can also tell you that she is so engaged in the moment that her expressions add to the wedding photos in a great way! I love her and you will too!
