Me and My Gomesi, Part II

(Click here to read part I of this post)



That's the bride's side of the family above.  Each side of the family sits facing each other, as each side presents their entire extended family to the other side.  Everyone here has a huge family, so it takes a while...especially because they're cracking jokes at each other the whole time too.









That's us, on the groom's side of the tent.


Pinning a flower on the groom.





The one all the way on the right is the bride.











Then we had to carry in all of the gifts we had brought with us and present them to the bride's family.  Above is me and Sylvia carrying salt wrapped in banana leaves, and below the men are unwrapping a TV.









What's inside the banana leaves??

Chicken!
