I think people would not give much thought to it, particularly if no other characters gave much thought to it.

On the other hand, if other characters are upset about this cross-species "mixed marriage", that is going to strike close to home for people that are on both sides of the divide with regard to real-life so-called "mixed marriages" (between races, ethnicities, nationalities or religions).

If you write it so nobody even notices, you won't have a problem, it will be like a tall man marrying a short woman. Or vice versa. Or a redhead marrying a blond. Or --- like on The Big Bang Theory -- a pretty model marrying (for love) a short, insecure, glasses-wearing physicist with asthma. Unusual but unobjectionable.

The reaction will depend on your treatment.
