A multicultural wedding — how to bring traditions together

If you are planning a multicultural wedding, it matters to talk about the traditions — with your partner, with your families, with the people close to you. That will help you understand what matters, what has meaning, what is worth including.

You can choose the traditions that matter to you — the ones that have meaning, the ones that resonate.

You can also create new traditions — combining elements from both cultures, making something that is yours. That can be beautiful — a way of showing that both cultures matter.
