QUESTION 5 OF 27

How would you accommodate a multi-cultural wedding?

You will almost certainly encounter couples that bring different cultural, regional, religious, or language backgrounds that they would like to be considered and accommodated in the planning process. The couple will want to know that you are equipped to balance the intersectionalities represented at their wedding, so be sure to demonstrate your preparedness to listen and learn.

"First and foremost, I would want to work with the couple to understand as fully as possible what cultures and components they want to be represented. I always want to ensure that each culture is appropriately represented in the wedding and to the degree that the couple chooses. I have had couples schedule two separate wedding ceremonies to perform each cultural ceremony independently, other couples have requested the ceremony to lean towards one culture and the reception to lean towards another, and I've had couples integrate both the ceremony and the reception. In these circumstances, I lean heavily on the couple to decide what they are most interested in, then lean on fellow industry professionals that have agreater knowledge of and experience in planning weddings of the represented cultures."
