coming together

the couple's new kitchen and the head table
A couple weeks back, a friend invited Sara and I to his younger sister's "coming together" (a sort of traditional wedding celebration, but not actually a wedding).


There were dancers and DJ's, and I'm not sure which was a more intense in the music-- 
the beat or the decibels!

preparation for the celebration
waiting for the dancers to enter

enter the groom and bride (she's covered in a chitenge-- traditional fabric--
of the same print as her dress)
the groom and bride and one of their two attendants
We had a great time celebrating this coming together with friends.

  2. So I don't get it...are they actually married, or just together?
