the ceremony

Ben and Johanna's wedding was one of the most lovely ceremonies - personal and yet paying tribute to their past.  It was bilingual, which made my heart almost leap out of my chest, and whilst not really religious - combined some lovely Jewish traditions.  They married under a Chuppah, there were seven poems or blessing from family and friends and, of course, the breaking of the wine glass.  They also exchanged some incredibly personal vows.  And the sun shone - no mean feat after 2 days of rain.

Now if you allow myself to indulge in the wedding-fest a little more... next up - Hochzeitspiele!
