I'm engaged (Yay!) to a man from Great Britain and his family is keen on having a traditional English wedding: church, elegant dress, pretty much what you'd expect. My family and I, however, are Americans from the South and my family wants it to take place somewhere that is the living definition of Southern Comfort with plenty of hard alcohols and simple, rustic decor and wearing a simple dress with western boots. We wanna know if any of you have any suggestions to satisfy both families (And I know some answers will say 'Do what you want to do, it's your wedding' or 'Hire a wedding planner', but we've noticed depending on whether their nationality is American or British, they tend to lean more towards their own nationality and we want to have both families happy since they'll be family in the end. Anything is helpful, don't be shy!

I know the "you'll know when you know" thing, but I want to know what some strangers think. We've been together almost 3 years come April. She's my high school sweetheart. I'm in college now, she graduated her senior year in December. We've talked about it and how we may wait till she's got her first year of college done with, and after engagement we can wait however long needed to marry. Any ideas? Please be friendly :)

Is ''Iranian Celebration Marriage Party Event'' fine? Or ''Iranian Marriage Party Event''? Or do I replace the word ''Marriage'' with '' Wedding''? I confused people in my previous question because I didn't explain about it. When a question gets too long people tend to skip it. (I need the caption for some documents, as I'm Iranian and my husband is English....) https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20171121220757AA25cAX&page=2 Thanks in advance!

Trying to get ideas on a "destination" spot within the U.S. My fiancée's Family is from NJ, mine is from MN. We want a spot for our friends and family to travel to. We also have considered FL. Thanks!

Just want to get an idea of what people spent. My fiancée and I are going to visit a jewelry store together. He isn't as picky on what ring he wants. I'm the opposite however. Thanks!

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh Couple of months ago I received a marriage proposal. I said yes. He has very great religion, follows the teachings of the Quran very well. He has everything I look for in a husband. By marrying him, I know my religion will also increase. The thing is that I feel like we don't connect. We never have anything to talk about. It's hard to have a conversation thru text and phone calls. When we speak, I'm always trying to think of what to speak about. I find it hard having conversations with him. Before Islam (I'm a revert), I've had male friends who it was easy to talk to with. I don't know why it's different now. I'm usually able to have conversations with anyone. Would it be an unsuccessful marriage if I marry him with no connection? I know there's a Hadith that mentions the importance of marrying someone for their religion. I do find him attractive, he's a very handsome guy, but the most important thing to me is religion. Could I fall in love with him even though I don't feel some kind of connection? I'm thinking maybe I don't feel that connection because we haven't married yet and once we have our nikkah and live together, we will start to connect more. I've been doing a lot of istikhara and it feels right to marry him. Has something similar happened to you where you married without feeling the connection but then fell in love? I just really need some advice please. All comments/advice are greatly appreciated. Jazak Allah Khair
