Hello Laura

Thanks for the details, i wish i was a bit more close to congratulate you in real the day of your life ....

Quote:
We're gonna have a civil ceremony on the day of the wedding, with a regirstrar's officer doing the actual marriage. Then later that day we'll have a blessing of the marriage in the church, the ceremony will be very much the same - the I do's, the ring being exchanged, the you may now kiss the brides and that sort of stuff. The only difference is that we'll be already married. So instead of asking "Will you take this man to be your husband..." the priest will ask "Will you honour this marriage... " and stuff like that. Perfect, methinks.
You know that's exactly what my mum and her husband did 6 years ago, and that was simply great !
Good luck with all you still have to do, it's a lot of work but it's worth it

laura, i was at my best friends wedding this weekend, ive spent the last year going through what you're going through right now with her- i can sympathise, but its worth it, and if you feel like escaping then you should be free to take a break from it with the knowledge that you can come back to it refreshed and ready to move forwards.

*me sends a hug yours and toms way*

Thanks everyone It's good to hear that I'm not the only one panicking and stressing over it. Although I've decided to complete studies, look for jobs and leave the wedding plans for the time being.

I didn't say Tom was an atheist... I said he is a non-Christian, which is what I meant. In the context of the wedding, ie. only members of Christian churches can marry in a church in Finland, Tom doesn't qualify. So it doesn't matter (in this context) if he's a muslim, an atheist, a jew... Just saying he's a non-christian will do fine

And Lutheran is a branch of Protestantism, just like Anglicans are, for example. Main religion in Finland, Sweden, Germany I think, etc. Follow Ice's link

And thank god (pun not intended) Tom doesn't have to become a Christian, ie be baptised for the wedding..> We went to a baptism in England (Anglican I think) and it was horrible I kept thinking fortunately Tom's not the one being carried around the church by the priest

And yes, August 2005.
