interfaith wedding
Cross-tradition nuptial ceremony
An interfaith wedding is a marriage ceremony between partners of different religious backgrounds.
The couple may incorporate elements from both traditions, choose a secular ceremony, or have one partner's religion predominate.
They're having an interfaith wedding with both a rabbi and a priest officiating.
Such weddings often require negotiation between families and clergy about acceptable practices.
