Our Wedding
September 8, 2001
Granite Bay, California
Vietnamese
Ceremony
Our wonderful day began with family and
friends attending a traditional Vietnamese ceremony at the bride's parents'
home. When you view the following pictures, you will notice the Vietnamese
ladies wearing traditional ao dai dresses. Once the bride and groom are formally
introduced, all attendees are introduced as well. Finally, a tea ceremony
commenced, and attendees enjoyed a light lunch before heading to the church for
the wedding ceremony.
Wedding
Ceremony
Next, the wedding ceremony took place at the
Lutheran Church of the Resurrection. It was a very hot day, and the air
conditioning wasn't working! As guests persevered, Father Marvin Bowers
proceeded with delivering a very touching and meaningful ceremony. There weren't
many dry eyes in the church that day!
Reception
Immediately following the ceremony, the
wedding party and guests headed over to the Granite Bay Golf Club for the
reception. Here, the usual activities occurred - photos were taken, toasts were
made, the cake was cut, and of course - there was lots of dancing! It was a
wonderful end to a magnificent day.
Sincerely,
The Tanbers |
