Before the bris I will need to know:

The Registration Form should be filled out after you have spoken with me and confirmed the time and date of the Brit Milah (and after the baby has been born). If you have not spoken with me or the baby has not yet been born, please do NOT fill out the Registration form.

Important! Please fill out the form carefully. Many parents are sleep deprived. All of the information on this form is for the parents of the baby (or babies), not the grandparents! Please review it at least once before you hit the "send" button.

Please punctuate and capitalize appropriately. Please do not use all capital letters or all lowercase letters. It will be greatly appreciated and save me a lot of time.

Please abbreviate wherever possible! For example, you may write St. instead of Street; 8.6 instead of 8 pounds 6 ounces; 4/26/10 instead of April 26, 2010; NY instead of New York, etc. Thank you.

If you are having a separate Baby Naming ceremony (not boy/girl twins), please click here and fill in the Naming Registration form.

If you need help with the Jewish names, please visit the Naming Guide section of my web site or call me. Also, I would suggest keeping the name a secret until the Bris.

Honors

The custom is for the parents of the baby to give out the honors at a Bris. The parents of the baby are not usually
included in the ceremony. The same person should not be given multiple honors at a Bris and the same person
should not be the Sandak at every Bris. Non-Jewish individuals may be included in the ceremony.
The Sandak and Chair of Elijah honors should be give to those who are Jewish.

Please type the first name of the honoree ONLY. I do not need to know the relationship.
(If there is more than one person at the Bris with the same first name, please include their last name.)
I recommend keeping the Honors (and the baby's Jewish name) a secret until the Bris.
