Bernel and Gloria's Magnificent Persian & Jewish Celebration - So Much Fun!

I had so much fun last night!

And I walked away from Bernel and Gloria's wedding ceremony doing a happy dance in my heart, so thrilled for this remarkable couple.

Over these past weeks, I had been working closely with Bernel and Gloria to write, craft and stage their intricate Persian/Jewish wedding ceremony.

With 150+ family and friends at Russell's Loft in Woodinville, I officiated a ceremony with many rituals and traditions from the Persian tradition and a few from the Jewish faith.

Between the gorgeous Sofreh (marriage spread), the asking (3 times), the sharing of honey and signing of documents, gratitude to the six children of this marriage, heartfelt sharing with parents, readings from Rumi, the breaking of the glass and so much more, we celebrated Bernel and Gloria and the road that brought them to this moment.

Bernel and Gloria - thank for the opportunity to be a part of your wedding day. Your ceremony was sweet, romantic, heartfelt, meaningful and so much fun!
