Weddings are the perfect time to celebrate family. After all, the bride and groom are gaining an entire new half of the family, and getting ready to start their own.
Part of celebrating family means celebrating culture. Whether that means different types of food, different kinds of clothing, different rituals, or specific locations, it all depends on the specific culture. Even if you don't realize it, culture has a huge influence on who you end up being as a person. Traditions and beliefs shape who all of us are, and they're not something to be forgotten.
Including cultural tradition in a wedding is always welcome, and it makes the ceremony and reception feel all the more special and unique to the couple.
On Owen and Mariam's big day, they decided to celebrate their culture in their first dance as a newlywed couple.
I have to say I'm really impressed with both of their skills! Sometimes, a first dance can be full of fun, but not necessarily perfectly executed. That's perfectly fine! However, this technical dance really did blow me away.
I'm sure that the family these two start together will hold their Irish culture near and dear to their hearts.
Wouldn't you love to see more culture integrated into our lives? History shouldn't be lost to time, and our different traditions and beliefs are what make this world so interesting and wonderful. Kudos to this couple for this lovely dance, and may they have a wonderful life together!
