I can only speak for myself. Wig was never an issue. His mother and sisters wear wigs. One of the big changes was nusach. Davening is different. Benching is different. My first rosh hashana as a married woman was crazy!!! It took me five years to get used to all that. I still can’t bentch by heart because I mix it up.

Speaking Hebrew words with the right sound taf instead of saf. I still feel like a bit of a faker wen I say “Shabbat”

I love the new foods and luckily my mother in law taught me how to cook.

Cholent is different as night and day. Get used to cumin and olives.

You should never know from it but they eat in a house of shiva and Ashkenazim specifically don’t

No shalom Zachor before a milah. But the Zohar is very nice and if done right.. Very mystical. A henna is an awesome custom as well…

I feel like the luckiest person that I got to marry into the warm loving community.
