Two wedding ceremonies - Orthodox and Atheist
Hello, I am Australian/English & my partner is Serbian Orthodox. He was born in Australia and speaks fluent English & Serbian. His family want us to do a Serbian orthodox wedding ceremony, but I really want to have a ceremony in English, where my father can walk me down the isle, we can have music & our own vows (all which aren’t included in a Serbian orthodox ceremony). Is there a way to have two ceremonies? Has this been done before? I don’t want to offend my FH family but I feel like this wedding won’t be me and I am very upset about it. FH is on board with my ask. Please, any advice is welcome!

7 answersIf I want to hold my ceremony internationally, can I use a friend as my celebrant ?
We are wanting to have a destination wedding and a lot of the venues are providing non-legal wedding celebrant. Could we just get our fiend to officiate the ceremony instead of using these ? We will be coming back to Aus and getting officially married at a registry, we just want the non-legal ceremony and reception. Please let me know if anyone knows if this is possible.
