Victoria and Rod celebrated their marriage this past weekend with three incredible marriage ceremonies from three different parts of their cultures. Their Saturday Persian ceremony was truly one of the most elegant weddings I’ve ever been a part of! Both ceremony and reception were held at the Sequoia in Georgetown. I had never been to a Persian wedding before, but I loved it! In addition to the ceremony, Victoria and Rod also put together an incredible party at the reception afterwards! I have never seen so many people dancing at a wedding! I even saw the bride’s parents fist pumping! Also, a big thanks to Amanda for helping me out!
Here are a few of my favorites for your enjoyment!
The spread at the altar is called Sofreye Aghd. Each of the things on the table represents something different, such as pomegrante, which are heavenly fruits that represent the divine creation and coins, which represent wealth and prosperity.
At the end of the ceremony, the bride and groom feed each other honey to symbolize the sweetness of marriage.
