Case Study: Getting Married in Scotland

A mixedfaith wedding is being held in Scotland. The bride wishes to honor the religious and cultural traditions of her nonScottish groom. However, due to the location, it may be difficult to identify and obtain the services of a proper religious official and also to incorporate the appropriate musical resources to participate in some of the traditional rituals.

1. How do you determine in advance the religious and cultural sensitivities of the bride and groom?
2. How do you identify the resources needed to perform an official ceremony that incorporates all traditions?
3. What other resources may be needed to ensure that the bride and groom's traditions are being incorporated in the ceremony and party?
