Reflected glory: the bride and me at the start of a Moroccan wedding ceremony

Bride in Moroccan wedding finery, and me

My husband and I recently went to Morocco to attend his sister's wedding celebration there. It was spectacular! The first phase of the ceremony included having her hands tattooed with henna, which we all agreed looked quite pretty. It took me a while, but I finally got a chance to shove my way through the crowds and join her on the green velvet throne for a photo opp.

Note: I hope the photo is displayed correctly on your browser, since I had to rotate it before uploading it. If not, just turn your head sideways and gawk.

Robin - I'm jealous.  Morocco?  I have always wanted to visit.  Looks like you got to visit and get immersed in a bit of culture too.  Hope you had a great time.

Hi, Matt! I had a blast, and got to meet lots of new friends, as well as spend precious time with the family. The definition of a great vacation.

Wow!  Beautiful women!  I clicked on your post because Morocco intrigued me and seeing the photo was a great start to my day.  I love the green dress.  (While yours is also fantastic, you just can't compete with the bride's garb!) I attended an Indian wedding a few years ago and it was really fun to be part of different cultural tradition.  Thanks for the post and I hope the trip was amazing!
