This past Sartuday, has been a weekend of sorts. I had to go to three weddings. Yes indeed, three weddings. On top of that, I attended a funeral.
The weddings involved colleagues. One of them was for a professor in the college near where I work, and another was for a radio broadcaster.
I really enjoyed these weddings, and was really caught up in the beauty that has enveloped the church.
Since most of the professor's family members came from Mombasa, the coastal part of the country, I got to see for almost the first time, the writings drawn (henna painting) onto the body of the bride. It is very rare here in Kericho to see this Arabic influence but I guess was part of what went into the making of this successful wedding ceremony.
There were several other weddings in town too, but since I was hoping from one place to another, I got very few photo clips from them. This coming week, I will again be at a wedding. I am getting ready with good wedding gear, as I am an official (by virtue of sitting in one of the committees for 3 months), though I have to put in some money there) in one of them.
Paying our respects to the deceased and family.
Anyway, enjoy the pictures!
