Thilak and Ragi- entry three

More of the Thilak and Ragi...


***




the singing and the audience were intersperesed with faces by families, friends, neighbours..






the mom of the bride looking a little wistful..maybe sad even..that her only daughter is going to live with the groom and not under her roof.





you can feel the intensity of their prayers





the vows, being processed, intertwined with the prayers..






the groom's family..







i think Thilak's mum was a little sad too...






more intent prayer moment




and then..





reading thescripture they chose from the bible






this priest was such a very powerful speaker..he spoke about building foundations in marriage and in the union, and how all marriages would undergo trials, and challenges..






and how all the trials are best overpowered by unity and strength in the couple--which can be done, by having God and prayers as centre of their relationship.







they took in, and laughed, at the funny points of the priest's message






..and listened some more.

more pics..:-)
