I went home after my post yesterday and found my Korean pictures. So, your in for a treat friends! First, let me tell you the story. Jonathan and I thought our friends and co-workers were throwing us a regular engagement party...you know, pizza...jeans. Nope! They gave us a wedding, and truth be told some of it was nicer than our actually wedding! I came in and they put me in a Korean wedding dress (I looked very much like a pink cupcake, but they all LOVED it; kept saying I looked like a princess) and gave me a bouquet and pushed me down the aisle! It was really so very touching. Someone sang for us, one lady wrote us a poem, she then made us recite to each other (vows), then the teachers and students took turns giving little speeches about how they met us and how much they loved us, and then the pastor gave a little (well, actually it was pretty long) sermon and then we went to eat the delicious reception food! It was amazing. Enjoy the pics.
All those are real flowers, beautiful.
Yep, The cupcake and the handsome prince.
The Pastors The Teachers (can you spot the one friend who thought she was just going to an engagement party and not a wedding ;)
...and these are the lovely ladies who decorated.
Sorry, just a few more :)
My beautiful Sophia (and her now husband!) and my handsome Gil.
...And yes, that is a different dress ( I had to change for the reception...of course!)
All I can say is, I am a blessed woman.
It looks like it was beautiful and a lot of fun! What a wonderful experience!
OMFG you look beautiful in traditional korean wear!!!! Did you keep it?!! If so I shall come to your house and I shall take many pictures!
GYAAH! You are so lucky! T_T I'm gonna cry...
Two weddings. Two worlds. Very blessed.
I think it's cause God knew you had too much love for just the folks you knew...so he had to expand your territory a bit. ^_^
that was an awesome surprise! they really love you two that they went to all of that to celebrate with you and make it so special. That is a cool way to share their culture with you. you don't look like a cupcake :)
