The minhag of the Sefaradim is not to get married during the omer (from Pesach until the 34th day of the omer in the morning). On the 34th day of the omer and onwards including the morning, one CAN get married. From the 34th day on, it is permissible to begin marriage preparations. If it is absolutly necessary, one may get married on the night of the 33rd day of the omer after checking with your Orthodox Rabbi. (Yalkut Yosef 493:1)
**This Shabbat Kodesh, the Shabbat after Pesah, there is a minhag to make Schlissel Hallah, where Hallah is baked in the shape of a key, or a key is inserted inside the Hallah and baked, to bring parnassah for the family. For a Hallah recipe, visit http://www.midreshethayil.com/ under the 'Hallah Recipe' link. May HaKadosh Barukh Hu answer all of our tefillot le'Tova u'le'Berakha!
