Question for those of you getting married in a Greek ORthodox Church......

FH is not Greek so we are having the ceremony in English... ok, great not a problem, great.....now.... for the bigger problems--

1) Is your priest allowing you to say 'I do' (FH hates that we don't say ANYTHING during the entire ceremony-- and I can't say I blame him!!)

2) OR how about placing the rings on each others fingers instead of the Koumbara doing it for you?
I just was in my cousins wedding party & she got married at St. Demetrios in Jamaica-- the priest had the Koumbara put their rings on---- NO WAY
FH won't go for that, and I don't want it either

3) One last thing--- in the Greek church, they place the ring on the RIGHT hand, FH doesn't like that, does anyone know if the priest will allow us to do it the more American left hand way?
