The Civil Ceremony

Back 


Ideal weather for a wedding, each drop of rain assures a day of future happiness.

*****

Chris, supported by his male friends, must face wait outside while ...
... Vanya, a close male relative of Tanya, sits in judgment and assesses whether he is truly worthy to link with the family and Tanya's hand in Marriage. 

*****

As a further test of Chris's honourable intentions he is presented with a number of alternative possible brides but he steadfastly remains true to his original choice.
[help please, we have no useable photos of this]

At last, Chris having passed all the tests, Tanya joins him.

They go down the steps ...

... toward the waiting registrar.

The civil requirements now completed ...

... Tanya's grandmother is one of the first with congratulations.
