I was in a similar situation that you’re in when I got married. I’m a Wiccan and my husband is an atheist. Most of my family are small-town Christians and have not totally accepted my choice of religion. So they were a little weirded out when I told them that I was having a Wiccan ceremony. What I did was hammer out a ‘toned-down’ ceremony with vaguely Christian traditions (which were originally pagan) like passing the cup and a short prayer. The DJ played music from a video game soundtrack that sounded Celtic, but was really Japanese. The only thing that was really different was the guys’ tuxes (Druid-like robes and capes), my Celtic-style gown, and the handfasting part, which the minister took great pains to explain. And my entrance music was CoCo Lee’s ‘Love Before Time.’ All my relatives told me that it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to, so things worked out, even though Jesus stayed home.
