My first Tanzanian wedding


My first Tanzanian wedding was lovely. LATE, but lovely. We went to the reception in the evening, where even the bride and groom were late. They new couple were introduced with much fanfare, and with the videographer following them around all night, I can't imagine that they were very comfortable. However, the reception was nice, and each side of the family got up to perform in their traditional tribal dance. At the end of the night, the guests had to, one by one, "dance" their gifts up to the bride and groom :) That was really fun :)
