It is definitely possible as my father is of Egyptian and Lebanese origin and a Muslim. my Mum is Anglo Australian and was raised as a Catholic. Obviously my family is very moderate when it comes to the religious observance and tolerance.
We were brought up as normal Australian kids and attended State schools. We went to church sometimes with my Nana and we went to the Mosque on special days with Dad and my mother.
They were married here in Australia in an Islamic ceremony and also by a civil celebrant.
I have many Friends who have very similar backgrounds .
When ever someone asks which religion we are, my Dad always says our family runs on love not religion.

Yes they can
I am a perfect example. My husband is Muslim and im Christian. We love each other very much and are very happy together.
So it can happen and im sure it has happened many of many times before me.
Now im sure there are some women from another religious group have married Muslim men and things didn't go to well. I don't think it really has anything to do with religion parable more to do with the way the person was raised.

The answer is yes simply because its probably happened already hundreds to thousands of times.

YESSS WHYY NOT??
look religion is not about about How you pray or when!
It's about how you treat other people!
Teach your kids the good in both religions!
Teach them about love and be a good example of it!!

when two people love each other, they get married and live happily ever after

It's not about religion!! it's about the person!!

sure, but depends how much are they loving each other , and how much are they respecting each other religion,

but the only problem is the kids , sometimes the parents try to make the kids choose their religion, but after all, its better to marry from the same religion, but if u love from another religion , then its ok .

I wish u all the best.

depends on how religious both of them are ... if they dont care abt their religions then yes .. if they do... loads of religious clashes :os

i knew a couple like that and they are not very happy but for totally different reasons other than religions!

a catholic woman might marry a catholic man and end up with a divorce and even vice versa! so religion is not a rule for a marriage to fail or not! love counts !

I think they can get married and live happily ever after. But I also think they cannot get married by a catholic priest unless they both were catholic, but I don't know about Muslims view on interfaith marriages. I do think there would be things that come up, such as holidays, raising your kids in which religion and other points that would come up. It would need good communication to suceed.

Don't know about happily ever after, but they can get married. Unlike a Muslim woman that can not wed outside the Muslim religion. How is that for fairness and equality?

Because they won't be able to have ARAK in the house.

Peace, love and ARAK!

Every love at first, is sweet, and noting seems strange,after marriage, love turns to a different type of love, family responsibilities, so on and on, if husband is Muslim, after few years, he will get pressured from his surroundings, that what kind of Muslim are you, by asheming him and humiliating he turn and pressure his wife and kids to become Muslim, one of the answerer wrote about a book "not without my daughter" it is a real life and true story, there is so many examples like that we hear every day, if he loves you he should become a christian and Be baptize in a church, do never become Muslim, it was a reason for you to be born Christian, further more Muslims are on a verge of falling and distraction, we are in 22 century, till NOW this barbaric people practice beheadings in street with singing and chanting, stoning women to death with false accusation just to get ride of there wife, the list is big, be care full ask god why you were born to a Catholicism, pray in Jesus. Amen

Try reading the book "Not Without My Daughter." It will answer a lot of your questions. And it's a true book about an American non-muslim woman who married a muslim man and how it went for her. It didn't go well, by the way.
