Planning A Jewish Christian Interfaith Wedding

By Kenneth Howard


You cannot avoid marrying your lover just because of his or her affiliation with a particular religion. You need to check for possible means to ascertain that your spouse is accepted in your society. Planning an interfaith wedding can help in this consideration. While deciding on this, one is recommended to take cautious decisions to avoid doing regrettable mistakes. The following are factors to consider in a Jewish Christian interfaith wedding.

Take into consideration all the rituals from both sides to find the most suitable ones. Certainly, you cannot miss one or two rituals practiced from one of the belief to be unaccepted in the other. In such cases, you need to carefully examine both sides rituals before you agree on those to include in your ceremony. Such include kissing the bride in public, wedding buns and blessing of the wedding ring.

Acknowledge potential sensitive problems that can offend either of the parties. Whether you prefer a priest or a rabbi, you should raise their concern over sensitive words that might render some of the attendants uncomfortable. Words like Jesus can be substituted with Lord since Jewish do not believe in Him. Quoting the Old Testament is reasonable enough to avoid creating discomfort with Jewish attendants.

Secure enough amount to cater for the occasion. This kind of nuptials is expected to be affordable enough since there is avoidance of most activities. Even so, this does not guarantee that it should be dull hence. It will require a reasonable amount as well. Your relatives and friends can assist in your funding as you add on your amount. Have a wedding committee to plan the bridal as you engage in other activities.

Hire a professional planner to handle some tasks. Some of the required activities are quite hard to undertake especially in a limited duration. In that case, a professional bridal planner can help out, but you have to be very keen in your considerations to avoid ending up with the wrong personnel. Give them a couple of activities to handle preferably those which you cannot manage to handle effectively.

Choose a suitable location to handle your ceremony. There are tons of other places where one can hold an interfaith bridal apart from the respective worship places. This makes your wedding acceptable by both parties and avoiding favoring one of the sides. Check on crucial aspects like its affordability and its location to ensure that it goes within their budget and every guest makes a point to attend.

Check on the decors you make a preference to. A nuptial without decoration is considered to be dull and unattractive to attend. For this case, one needs to decide on decorations that are within the dictates of both faiths to make everyone comfortable with your selection. Confirm about this from relevant experts who are involved in interfaith bridals.

Look for reliable means to adapt to your new society. Having a successful bridal does not guarantee that you do not have to relate to your spouse families just because they are from a different belief. You need to try at least to acquaint with their traditions as much as your spouse is doing the same. At the same time, make sure that your attempts are kept within the expectation of your reliance.
