How to Have a Bilingual, Multi-Cultural Wedding

from The Unconventional Wedding Planning Podcast

Weddings are about bringing together two people. And those people often bring with them their own families, cultures, languages, customs, religions, traditions and more! So how do you fuse those things together into one cohesive wedding? How do you honour your Japanese culture and your partner's Spanish culture? Do you do your ceremony in Italian or Swahili? Do you serve paella or fried rice? Do you wear a sari or a kilt? In today's episode, I'm giving my thoughts on how you can plan a bilingual, multi-cultural wedding that feels cohesive and inclusive. It's not about making sure all of your cultures/traditions are represented 100% of the time, rather it's about choosing meaningful moments to honour your new family and your family of origin. Listen in as I share ideas for how to incorporate multiple cultures at your ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, before and after your wedding! Have a wedding planning question or episode idea?
