Hi Mylo,

Catholic weddings take about 1 1/2 hours (give or take). You have the Catholic mass which is approx. an hour and then the vows. Depending on what other things you may add (some people incorporate extra readings, lighting of a unity candle, etc.) So it just depends on your particular ceremony.

Have a great night.

Half of my family are Catholic. Here in the USA,(ABD'da), ceremonies usually take 50 minutes to an hour.

Hi Loveprague,
I pretty much agree on what Christine said....

''''Compromise by having a Turkish wedding and an English wedding. Teach children of the union both religions and lets them choose when they are old enough in.'''''


I think that if you guys love each other very much and respect each other's religion everything will be ok. Its not bad idea for your guys to have two weddings or even get married in the beach!
I have a friend who has been in that situation or worst. She is not allowed to talk to her friends from church, not even her family, appearently she got expel from church because she was in love with a sweet muslim guy and they both got married... but you know what??
She is with the love of her life!!
She goes to church sometimes but when she is there, her husband is with her,right my her side

Discuss the issue with your fiancee and things are going to be ok! Im sure ya can find a solution that you guys can be happy with. When theres love between two people anything is possible.

Best wishes,
Latinyer

In my opinion, wedding is not the biggest problem. Think more about your future life, eg. children. Do you want your son to be circumcised? Does your love mind if your children is beptised? Will your children able to choose their religion later, and do you mind if they choose Islam?
For me, choose both catholic wedding and Turkish wedding. Turkish weddings are great - especially if family gives you lots of gold

I am a christian, and my religion is very important to me. I go to church every week, pray at meal times and bed time etc. My husband is muslim though. When you feel all the romantic exciting feelingd of love and butterflies, it can feel like as long as you love eachother everything else will fall into place. Real marriage isn't like this though. That's why I love that you are taking the time to think about things responsibly. As far as my husband and I work it out, we respect eachothers religions. My husband prays with us for meal times etc. comes to church when theres something special on. On the other side, our son was circumsised and doesn't eat pork. As Christine said, it takes comprimise. Teach the kids what you both believe in and they will choose for themselves after. Although just be aware of how strong your religion is to you and her because it will hurt emotionally sometimes to be with someone or have your kids not believe the same things. But seems to me you and her are very much in love and very mature about the relationship in discussing your future together, i have a lot of respect for that.


theres no problem in marriage when Christine woman married muslim man, but the real problem when Christine man married muslim woman, These provisions of Islam

Helloo.. Well I myself have been raised in a fmaily where my mother is christian and my father is muslim!! Religion has not ever been a problem within my family at all.. I know the two religions but no one in my family are deeply religious people. My parents decided to make me christian it has not been a big issue for me to be christian.. I dont follow that religion much! I infact follow and am interested with the muslim faith more than christian faith.

My parrents got married and have kept their faiths, they marrried in a freinds place with a celebrant leading the ceremony. Both are happy and still very much inlove, so i guess loveprague as long as you love eachother you can work something out!

the best of luck to you

i think all religions order love to everything and everybody,so i think ''love''is the base of all beliefs.And i think faith differences only a sweet diversity in the ''love,respect and tolerance ocean'' ..)

Well this is a nice feeling and thinking if there is no people who have commitment to the religious texts! and they are depending on the love that they really feel. But is it possible to have a religion you had made it by yourself?
I see a big contradiction between saying I have the Islam or Christian faith but according to my way!!!
in Islam's principles acording to Koran and other texts: Islam's woman can not ( forbiddin ) to marry a man from another religion he must be Muslim first and then the marriage is lawful otherwise it is an illegal marriage relationship. This is bare fact you can find in the Islamic texts.
Anyway I hope they think much more about love for colorizing their life with happiness and do as the painters do adding more nice colors than thinking about the differences in nationalites and religions. Good Luck

i believe that all the beliefs the different paths to arrive same point,and the target of all believes to creat more peacfull,loving ,tolerated,justly...etc... societies.So don't think so faith differences can be barrier for any path ,if ur way to target
