In Celebration of Marriage!

 A few photos from four Marriage celebrations over the past few months. Marriage is a wonderful thing to celebrate and when and where possible we like to attend!
The marriages take place in the city hall, but afterwards the couple invite everyone to celebrate!






















Everyone pitches in to make the day special!
Special dishes are washed over and over so everyone can
enjoy the feast!


Whether simple or elegant, it isn't the celebrations that matter...the important part is the fact that
Marriage is a Sacred Ordinance.  A Temple Marriage, performed by one having Authority from God,  can last forever.  In the Temple, the words, until death do you part...are never spoken.  Knowing that this authority exists on the earth, a trip to the Temple becomes a goal that brings Couples many blessings along the way as well..  



Right now, the closest Temple is in Recife, Brasil...
but Temples are dotting the earth,
and someday, there may even be one in Cabo Verde!
