My sister Meera was married today, to Thea Bou. It was a long day, with three different traditional weddings all rolled into one: A Vedic wedding, a Khmer wedding, and the standard American wedding. It started to rain just as we were ready to do the American wedding outside, however a delay with the Justice of Peace caused the timing for the wedding to be perfect and rain free.
Meera and Thea hired a professional photographer, however Meera asked me to take some photos too. Some of them came out really nice, however a lot of them were either taken from the wrong angle or through the glass divider (which created either a glare or white haze on the pictures). I was unable to take any photos of the American part of the wedding so I'll be sure to post the professional photographer's pictures as soon as I have them. The reception is tomorrow evening and I'll be taking pictures there as well. I'll post those either tomorrow night or Sunday morning.
I'd like to take this opportunity to extend my congratulations to my sister and my brother-in-law and wish them a long, happy marriage. 🙂
Nice pictures.
I’ve seen video of a traditional Khmer wedding recently. It was the short version, but yet took forever, so my friend said. While sitting on the ground, his Uncle had to hold him up, his feet were falling asleep and he was falling over. lol
Question…. and your answer will be – “google it”.
What’s a Vedic wedding?
Give my congrats to your sister and new Brother-in-law, tho they have nooooo clue to DJT.
Thanks DJT.
Thea’s legs fell asleep at one point too!
There is some good info on the Vedas on Wikipedia. You can check out my Dad’s blog for more material.
I’ve actually read some of the stuff on your Dad’s blog. Nice to be able to put a face with Dad :), guess I missed the part that it was Vedas. However I did end up googling it. This one wasn’t covered in our study of different religions in our Sunday School Class.
When Pheary (spelling) gets to America, I’ll be taking her and Ton’s wedding pictures. 😀
