Sikhs are free to marry people from any religion, although if you are an Amritdhari sikh, it is highly recommended that you marry an Amritdhari for compatibility in spiritual lifestyles. It is very healthy if gradually, both spouses gain more understanding of each other's faith and develop respect for it. Gurbani does advocate that "O mind, meditate on one, O loved one" i.e. follow only one path to get to God (altho' you might respect all the paths that lead to Him).
