Monsignors and Reverends and Priests ... oh my!

We are having an interfaith wedding.

I know who I want for our Rabbi, I actually found the Rabbi from my temple growing up who retired but still does weddings.

But now we need to find someone to do the catholic side of things. FH is Roman Catholic. Monsignor Lisante seems to be highly recommended on here, so we're going to call him this week.

But can anyone tell me what the difference between a Monsignor, Priest, Minister and Reverend is?!!?

the monsignor is the head priest in an indiviual church.
a priest is catholic. a minister is not catholic, but usually of a christian faith (think 7th Heaven) - i think a reverend is the same, but im not sure.

I do know that any acting catholic priest will not marry you outside a church.
