Aging In Slow Motion: Hindu Wedding

I just returned from Toronto, where I was attending my grandson wedding.
Three hundred guests from four continents attended this formal Hindu ceremony.
It was like a fairy tale. I never was in a Hindu wedding ceremony before.
There was lots of symbolism, music, gift exchange. The ceremony took place in the very ornate ballroom of the Four Season Hotel, which was decorated with lots of light and flowers.
The groom wore below the knee length white silk coat over white silk pants and the bride a soft pink silk sari. They looked stunning, like a fairy tale Prince and Princess.
After the ceremony which lasted about one hour and a half was a session of photo shots and after came dinner and dance. Dinner was superb a choice of lamb or fish and two kind of fabulous desert. There was no sweat table and I was very grateful for that. Sweat table and all the choices they come with, is my downfall.
This is a multi culture, religious and racial union and both religions where honoured.
I am very happy for them and wish them a very long happy life together.
