Love Profound

Lauren Jill and William were married in Hollin Hall's Main Walled Garden on a beautiful late fall day. Words from Lauren Jill's great-grandmother, Helen Sutton Booth, graced the cover of their program,

The vows you pledged on your wedding day

Are not for you alone;

Your words are echoed in the hearts

Of all who love have known.

As new stars light the firmament

With beauty all can see,

Your love, new-born, illumes the world

Now and eternally.

Later, the bride wrote "My wedding was really pretty much perfect and magical. Hollin Hall was the perfect venue. The weather was fantastic and the only "complaint" my mom and I have is that we wish we could have stayed out on the wisteria porch longer, only because it was so gorgeous out there!"





A Traditional Hindu Wedding Ceremony

Pranhidi and David were married in a traditional Hindu ceremony in Hollin Hall's main walled garden on October 6.  Here they pose for photos before the start of the ceremony.

The bride and groom are wearing garlands to mark the union of body, mind and spirit.  To commence the ceremony, a prayer is offered to Lord Ganesh to invoke his blessings and to remove all obstacles for a successful completion of the ceremony.

 

The white garden chairs were moved indoors to the Meeting House for the reception as were the four pillar "trees" that created the mandap under which the ceremony took place.  Catering was by Bollywood Bistro.  The mandap and flower arrangements were by Davinci Florist.
