On a very rainy evening, a few friends gathered at the Kentlands Chapel to celebrate the marriage of Yiheng Wang to Yang Yang. President Charles Huang performed a very brief wedding ceremony in the chapel, where the bride and groom took their vows for each other. Then with the help of Kevin Wang, the best man, the bride and groom exchanged rings. The two of them posed for photos with individual families in the chapel.
In the cultural hall, after a blessing on the food, the groom and bride said a few words. Then we enjoyed a deliciously catered dinner. To test how much the groom knew his wife, he was blindfolded and asked to shake the hands of several young ladies including his bride. After several rounds, he discovered his wife. Later, the bride and groom cut the cake. Finally, the bride tossed her bouquet to a line of eligible maidens. Everyone helped in the clean up.
Despite the very wet weather this evening, all those who participated enjoyed this festive celebration. We were honored to witness the union of Yiheng to Yang Yang. To see their joy added to our joy. We wish the best for the newlyweds in their new lives. Congratulations, Yiheng and Yang Yang!
