4 August 2008

I have to appologize for not posting as much lately, but it was a long holiday and there was so much to do! I’m in the process of making a wedding resource for just Edmonton brides, so any readers out there from Edmonton keep your eyes open for it!

We all know love can translate in many ways. So, it always amazes me when I get a glimpse of what weddings are like around the world. Here we go - your interesting wedding photo round-up for the month (click to enlarge):

Descriptions starting top left (clockwise):

- A bride poses among a flock of pigeons during a pre-wedding photoshoot in Beijing. Over 1,000 couples waited in line to get their marriage licenses to wed on August 8/08 (08/08/08 is considered lucky because the number 8 stands for ‘fa’ or ‘to get wealthy’). The date also marks the opening ceremony of the Olympics held in Beijing.

- Reality TV stars (The Bachelorette) Ryan and Trista Sutter joined 20 other couples in a group wedding photo in a special “Mamma Mia!”themed wedding in a Burbank, CA IKEA on July 17, 2008.

- 39 police officers married in a collective Catholic wedding in Bagota.

- Little Jasper and Levi sit awkwardy after their ‘I will’ declaration during Children’s Wedding Day at the Science Museum NEMO in Amsterdam. The marriage lasts only one day, ending just after sunset.

Stay tuned for next month’s interesting photos…
