Arguably there are many similarities between a betrothal weekend and wedding weekend: enormous preparation; a gathering of family; a church function; a starry eyed couple; certain rites presided over by a priest; an exchange of hard-earned money between the family and an array of vendors. Overall the weekend was a smash success - no great outbreaks of negative emotion; no one fell sick; the weather was sunny if humid.
Here's a few shots from the betrothal - - you should bug Anita or Alfi if you want prints :)
"Anita, I'll need a good cigar by the time this weekend is done"
