Is it okay to have a Co-Officiant, such as a priest or rabbi?
Yes. However, you may not need the co-Officiant in order to include elements that reflect your religious background. Although I do not weave Christian or Jewish “liturgical” elements into my weddings, I have often included Hebrew prayers and readings from sacred texts (including the New Testament) at the request of the couple. If a co-Officiant is retained, I expect to serve as the lead Officiant and to receive payment equal to the co-Officiant, if he/she requests a fee higher than my standard fees.
