Big Day Out in Sunny Wellington

Yesterday was a huge day for all involved in the marriage of Peter and Mani. My day started at 4:30am so I could fly down from Auckland. Most weddings are big occasions but this was huge. Not only were these two young people's lives being connected forever, so were their cultures. It was important to both families that each culture was able to celebrate the day in their own tradition. Two ceremonies meant a big day of shooting, with a more traditional Kiwi garden ceremony in the morning followed later by a traditional Laos ceremony.

I feel honoured to be part of such a unique event that most New Zealanders won't have seen before. Thanks Peter and Mani for giving me this opportunity.
