Rabbi willing to do interfaith weddings in Binghamton, NY?

(Asking for a friend) Can anyone recommend a Rabbi or Cantor who is willing to officiate at an interfaith wedding, and is located in the general area of Binghamton, NY?

I can't provide any specific advice, but I'd recommend contacting the Humanistic Judaism congregation in Ithaca (http://kolhaverim.net/). They may have a Rabbi and, if they do, he/she will most likely officiate an interfaith service. If they don't have a Rabbi, I bet they can get you in touch with a local who would be happy to officiate.

There's also a congregation in Rochester, supposedly, but their website is being redirected so I'm not sure they're around anymore.

I have a recommendation of a rabbi in New York City--and I know she has traveled to officiate before. Send me Me-mail and I'll give you details if you want them.

Interfaithfamily.com (besides being a great resource generally) has a "Rabbi and Jewish Clergy Officiation Request Form."
