To be a witness at a Jewish wedding you need to be a Jewish adult who is not related to either member of the wedding couple. Within some parts of Judaism (such as Orthodoxy) you have to be a male, while other parts of Judaism (Reform, Reconstructionist, Renewal, and most of Conservative Judaism) accept males or females as witnesses. Some rabbis (again, usually Orthodox) require that witnesses be observant Jews, and some require that witnesses be able to sign their names in Hebrew.
