Who acts as her wali?
- A Muslim male relative if there is one (a Muslim brother or uncle).
- If there is none: the imam, Islamic centre officer or qadi, on the principle that the authority is the wali of one without a wali (Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi).
- The Hanafi school permits an adult woman to conduct her own contract; she may follow that view if she adheres to that school.
The wali should be a Muslim, sane, adult man.
Your non-Muslim family
وَإِن جَٰهَدَاكَ عَلَىٰٓ أَن تُشۡرِكَ بِي مَا لَيۡسَ لَكَ بِهِۦ عِلۡمٞ فَلَا تُطِعۡهُمَاۖ وَصَاحِبۡهُمَا فِي ٱلدُّنۡيَا مَعۡرُوفٗاۖ وَٱتَّبِعۡ سَبِيلَ مَنۡ أَنَابَ إِلَيَّۚ ثُمَّ إِلَيَّ مَرۡجِعُكُمۡ فَأُنَبِّئُكُم بِمَا كُنتُمۡ تَعۡمَلُونَ如果他俩勒令你以你所不知道的东西配我，那么，你不要服从他俩，在今世，你应当依礼义而奉事他俩，你应当遵守归依我者的道路。然后，你们的归宿只归于我，我要把你们的行为告诉你们。”
Kindness to parents stays obligatory even if they are not Muslim. Having them at the wedding is permissible and kind if nothing forbidden takes place.
This guide is for learning, not a fatwa. Where scholars differ we show the positions of the schools; for your own situation ask a trusted scholar or Islamic centre in your country.

Do I need my non-Muslim father’s permission?
It is not a condition of validity, but consulting him kindly is encouraged where it causes no harm.
