[quote=Anonymous]I'm Indian and DH is white, but generic WASP so no particular cultural affiliation or preference. My parents paid for everything (including hotel rooms for out of town guests) and so we just had an Indian ceremony but everyone really got into it and enjoyed themselves. Some things were important to DH's family like his brother and best man making a speech so we incorporated that stuff in. The Indians all wore traditional wear and the regular guests wore western clothes, though a lot of our younger friends bought Indian clothes online and wore those. Lots of things we did give up though, like the gift giving part where DH's family would give me jewelry etc. So strictly speaking it wasn't really an Indian wedding, only nominally so. But no matter, it was a great couple of days.[/quote]
