Casamento

Years ago, while Darin was working in Miami, we attended many Cuban weddings and even one Greek wedding. Tonight, we experienced our first Brazilian wedding. Like the Cuban weddings, a Brazilian wedding never starts on time. As a matter of fact, this is one started 1 1/2 hours late. The entire ceremony was spoken in Portuguese and translated into English by one of the groomsmen. It also included three solos by the wedding party. One in English, two in Portuguese including one sung by the bride to her groom.

The reception started with berry smoothies that were delivered to each table. The buffet line included rice, potatoes, chicken casserole and shredded pork. We weren't sure what ingredients were in each of the dishes but they tasted delicious! Brazilians must have sweet tooth because there was a tremendous amount of desserts and handmade chocolates in addition to the cake.

Congrats to Isabel and Robert! Thanks so much for inviting the Morgans, we sure had a good time.
