1. This marriage is about you first: your feelings,
levels of religion/spirituality, comfort. Your ceremony
should reflect what you wish to say. Do ask both
families for input, but the decision is
ultimately yours.

2. REMEMBER - never instead of,
always in addition to!

3. Do you wish one officiant for your
ceremony or would you like to have one
representing each of your faiths?
(i.e. a Rabbi and a Priest, or an Interfaith Minister)

4. What do you want your ceremony to say?
Do your homework.

5. Do you wish to add cultural parts to your
ceremony as part of your heritage?

6. Are you planning to have children? How would you bring them up? In which religion? Both religions?

7. Speak up - ask questions of each other, of us, and of all those involved with your special day.

8. Understand that there are few prohibitions against Interfaith marriages in the major religions of the world.

9. Interfaith couples bring greater attention to their marriages than most couples who share their same beliefs.

10. Remember that your wedding day should be the most fun you have together as a couple! (Until that moment!)
