Question: How do Amish choose spouse?

The Amish do not like to depend on outsiders, so neighbors are always helping each other. Unmarried Amish choose their own husbands/wives, and the woman is very much involved in the process. Courtship often begins with a young man transporting a young woman to and from one of the many singings or Sunday worship.

Do Amish take more than one wife?

Amish believe large families are a blessing from God. Amish rules allow marrying only between members of the Amish Church.

What is the strictest Amish group?

The Swartzentruber Amish are the best-known and one of the largest and most conservative subgroups of Old Order Amish.
