Ok here's the deal. I posted previous about my son and his Mormon girlfriend. Well they are now planning to get married.
Can a Mormon elder ( not sure what they are called) perform the marriage or will he. Her parents (Mormons) seem to be ok with it.
My son told me , they would prefer to have a small wedding and a reception later.
The problems, first of all we have a large non-JW family not sure the size of her family but our family alone over 100 members.
My son don't attend any religious organization, so it doesn't matter to him who perform the marriage. I'm wondering about his girlfriend and her side of the family.
The reception, that will be another problem. I would love to see his JW mom attend and other JW family members but I doubt it.
Will Mormons( other then family) attend a reception for a fellow believer with a non-believer. I would hate to see these two young people hurt on the most important date of their lives.
My heart tells me it will not turn out well, I hope I'm wrong.
