2nd wedding-"White Wedding"

Our pastor's daughter recently got married (see post on Lobola or Traditional Wedding) and this is her 2nd wedding called the White Wedding. This is the Christian Wedding that we are most used to in the States with a bit of an African twist.
The wedding was slated to start at 8am, but everyone actually arrived to the church around 9:30am and things finally got started. Both the brides father and mother walked her down the aisle where the groom and his father met them and the bride was then handed over to the groom.
The ceremony went on until around 12:30pm when they went for pictures. We all then went to the bride's home where a big tent was set up and much rehearsed dancing took place by the bride and groom and their bridal party. The bride did 4 outfit changes during the reception...yes I said 4!! We partied til dark and then the bride and groom went to the grooms place the next day to do the whole thing again (this is the 3rd wedding).
We have been so blessed to be a part of these events and we are so happy for our pastor's daughter Karabo.
