I also wonder if I gave FH a ring AFTER the ceremony, if it could then be considered a wedding GIFT. OOOOH lots of questions.

It all sounds good to me, but then again I am all about bending the rules

Also, i'm not even jewish, all i know about judaism has come from extensive reading and college courses..that's why I usually have a very different perspective than the people who post who ARE jewish

I was raised Jewish and took a few courses in religion and Judaism in college as well. I found that the people who were NOT Jewish did better in those classes because they took the infomation at face value. Whereas the Jewish students questioned everything that they were taught growing up and how it may or may not have presented with conflicts in the different interpretations of the Torah and other scriptures.
