You may have some snags because he is from a male-dominated culture so I would try to get that straightened., as much as you can, in counseling.

May these things be known and honoured among both families and friends. May God's grace be abundant in your marriage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're in the midwest of the US, though. It's not common in the midwest, but nobody seems to notice, which is nice. I did hear a special on NPR about discrimination and other issues with racial marriages in Virginia, so there may be local culture issues to consider in your area.
