We just got engaged but I am already feeling stressed about the planning lol, I am a planner and like to have ideas in my head before I jump into them...but thats not the reason I am posting, my FI is from the Ukraine and is Russian so I was wondering if anyone knows what wedding traditions they might have so that we can incorprate them into our wedding. I know the FI wants some Russian food at the wedding but, my family will not eat it. And then our religions are different IK was raised Catholic, but I want to convert to Judaism, but my family is against it saying it is hyprocritical to get married in a synagogue, since my FI is Jewish, I would like to have a wedding were i can make my family happy and his, so we were thinking justice of the peace officate the wedding. But I would really prefer to have a Jewish wedding, is there a way if we have a justice of the peace officate that we could incorprate jewish traditions?
Re: Just wondering

Well then, if you guys are paying it is 100% your own choice! If what you and FI want is a Jewish wedding then go for it!!
As for the religion aspect, it will be difficult to please everyone again. If you and your fiance are paying, technically no one can rightfully tell you what you can and can't do. More than anything, I would say do what makes you happy so you can look back one day and be 100% satisfied with your choices instead of having regrets.
