Dancing in the kitchen...

Yesterday I went to my neighbor's wedding. I was invited by the family of the bride.

The day started out at early in the morning at the temple, with the main rituals and ceremony. Folks then took a break for a meal together in the early afternoon, before heading back to the temple for more ceremony and ritual.

The bride then went back to her home where she was given a tearful send off by her family (complete with singing). Around early evening she goes to her new home with her husband, and is now officially part of his family.

Evening brought the neighbor girls over to my apartment for a visit. We ended up dancing in the kitchen for hours until it got dark.

Here's some of the dancing fun. Pictures from the wedding to follow.
