Chapter 6: the reception !!!

The reception was held at the hotel where we were staying, handy eh, no it was planned on my part  
the parking lot out front is where the tents were set up

HEAD TABLE WITH THE CHAIRMAN - sitting to my left with blue clerical shirt, Sr. Mavis two to my right with Gifty in between.
bottles of bubbly were sold along with bottles of water and handkerchiefs 
with all the money going to the couple

 MUSIC AND DANCING

ENTRANCE OF THE BRIDE AND GROOM
 - money is thrown in their path to encourage them to enter, see the money dropping from the man on the right - money is for the couple as it is a great expense to put on a wedding 
so gathering money at the reception is a way to assist the couple

 money placed against her forehead 
- see the basin at the bottom right, that is held by the woman who is gathering up the money
some of the girls from the Skill Centre

NEW OUTFIT - blue lace with gold and silver accents , sparkly earrings and gold shoes,            I tell you fancy or what! well ... it is a wedding!
Now Jemi and Daniel are seated and greeting folks
