Victor and Susy got married last Saturday. The wedding started at 5 PM "hora mexicana" - that's Mexican time for 6:30 PM. The bride and groom were both very late and they came together! They were going to arrive in a taxi, but Susy's father finally went and got them! It's my first experience to have a bride and groom take a taxi to their wedding! Victor and Susy had a baby, got married in a civil ceremony and got married in this religious ceremony - all in that order. After the long wait, we enjoyed a beautiful ceremony with friends and family giving the usual wedding gifts: a Bible, the unity candles, the lazo, the rings and the kneeling pillows. We then enjoyed a delicious meal of carnitas (pork tacos), beans and rice. Alan took the pictures and got some nice ones, which we'll be putting in a book for the bride and groom. Since it was getting very late, and the hired musicians were setting up an ominously humongous sound system, we left even before tasting the cake! I guess the party lasted till 3 AM. No wonder the young people and ladies had a hard time staying awake and alert in Sunday school class!
