Love is in the air… and so is Star Wars

It’s the season for engagements and weddings all around, and we would like to send our biggest congratulations to these beautiful couples who got married recently.

Theresa and Liam got married in Texas–so cute you two! Resa you look STUNNING! We wish we could have been there for your special day. Another orientee hitched! Yaaaay

Theresa and Liam

Zafar and Chelsea in New Orleans–Zafar is half Samoan, and his family are pioneers in Papua New Guinea, our families go way back; Chelsea served here at the World Centre with Saba and I. What a radiant couple.

Roman and Leila got married in Auckland, and we unfortunately could not be in that part of the world to attend it. Roman and his family are dear friends with Saba and I and our families. Don’t they look like something out of a wedding magazine? Beauuuutiful. Also these two were a part of a Lionel Richie music vid (I have famous friends! haha, ok, so it’s only a 1-second shot but still; they’re the second couple in the park, don’t blink).

Leata and Collin tied the knot in Samoa in December ‘06 at a gorgeous beach resort, where everyone these days in Samoa are choosing to get married, and where Saba and I spent our honeymoon. Ia ua lava. I love the ofu, pale, and bouquet Leata! Congratulations!

And there’s more to come… Big malo lava to these soon-to-be husbands and wives–Jared and Clorin who will be getting married this weekend in Haifa, Naeem and Maryam in the Czech Republic in March, and Mateen and Monica in Haifa in April. Do we have every month covered? Yup, pretty much! And don’t feel missed out people, check out this funny wedding event. Hilarious. Se Saba, why didn’t we do something like this at our wedding? Se jush keeding; the burnt fire dancer, pe fire works, and Naeem doing his butter knife siva were classic enough :)

Thanks for sharing the photos! (any more pics of Theresa & Liam’s wedding?)
Also, we’d love to hear (and see) how the Arts Show went!
Not that I’m pushy or anything. . .

hey mara, more pics of the wedding can be found here http://www.flickr.com/photos/allaboutlove/

the art show was great; i’m sure a lot of staff at the bwc will blog about it; we didn’t take many pics unfortunately. the atmosphere was a relaxed one–no real dashing to buy, buy, buy because a lot of things were not on sale this year. it was much smaller than any of the other years i’ve attended but it was just as wonderful.
