Here Comes the Bride

Brandon and Sirisha are getting married

They met at Utah State University and fell in love

If you haven't noticed it's a love story that transcends distance

He is from Utah, and she is from here in Hyderabad

They are both volunteering with our group this summer

and the other night we went to their engagement party

We decided to pull out all the stops and get dressed in traditional clothes for the party

We also came prepared with some Bollywood dance moves 

I would also like every one to note (although you may not be able to tell) I'm wearing genie pants in this picture

All the girls looked very fancy

After the ring ceremony the kids spent the rest of the evening destroying the stage

Sirisha asked us to do a country dance.

They love cowboys here

Unfortunately, we are NOT talented dancers

and

I'm not really a cowgirl- AT ALL

but the show had to go on...

So we did a rip-roaring rendition of the Cotton-Eye-Joe

(my grandma will be happy about that one- I've taught her how to do it a few summers ago)

This is more than a little embarrassing....so I'm just going to put the last little bit of our dance on here

Don't judge us 

We really can't dance

It was a lovely ceremony

They will get married in Utah in August

Congratulations you two crazy kids!

With love,

A
