OUR BIG, FAT, GERMAN WEDDING!

This Saturday we had our civil wedding ceremony in Germany. Here we are with my parents in the town hall of Neubiberg.

Me and my cousin Florian

Jordan and me with my grand aunt Hanni (on the left) and my aunt Michaela (on the right)


All of our guests in front of the town hall (including family members from all parts of Germany)

"Congratulations to the Newlyweds" - a sign fixed on the town hall for us


In the restaurant we celebrated in: the "Jägerwirt" -we are reading the menu


My cousin Florian and my brother Christian


My bouquet

From the left: my aunt Hanni and uncle Udo with us

Us with my cousin and my brother

My grand uncle Karl with his girlfriend Rosa and my Papa's cousin Markus

My bouquet and the flower decoration on the table

The top of our wedding cake with a cute kissing couple

Our wedding cake with three different layers

Cutting the cake together

We fed each other (first nice, later we smashed- but that picture didn't turn out well)

Two happy couples

Our first dance this evening- a waltz

Jordan dancing with Mama and me dancing with Papa

Our musician- "Isar Johnny" (singing and playing guitar, harmonica and drums at the same time)




Our Bavarian and Italian buffet for dinner (after a huge and delicious lunch and cake)


The musician stole my bouquet and Jordan needed to win it back for me because he didn't protect it. He had to state five proofs of love that had to be approved by the guests in order to get it back. It was written down on a "certificate" and signed by two witnesses...

Jordan throwing the garter which was caught by my brother Christian

My Papa's cousin Markus and his wife Pelin playing a wedding game with us

Jordan and aunt Hanni doing a line dance which no one else could do...
