simple and true

On 19 August 2006, two people courageously trekked the path of marriage, holding each other hands. Sarah and Hans Peter or HP, got married in St. Elizabeth Church in Bonn and celebrated the occasion at Avendi Hotel in Bad Honnef. It was a solemn, classy and seamless event, thanks to the combined efforts of trusted friends and family members. From the church ceremony to the reception, the couple were able to enjoy the day with comfort.

The father of the bride walked halfway the aisle and waited for her in the middle. The door of the church was slowly opened for her and a soloist sang this song...

sag es laut

wenn du mich liebst

sag es laut

dass du mir alles gibst

sag es laut

dass ich alles für dich bin

sag es laut

denn danach steht mir der sinn

the groom was handsome, the bride was blooming and ecstatic, the entourage wore simple yet elegant gowns and the ceremony was very solemn. the filipino priest made a huge effort of giving the mass in german for the groom's family and the choir sang magestically. the procession out of the church was smooth and well coordinated.

at the reception, the ballroom was very classy and intimate. just enough people that the couple were to able to entertain each and everyone while the videographer and the photographers were busy as bees covering the party. the whole programme in german and english ran according to schedule with as few stress as possible. at the very end, baloons with sparklers tied at the end were let loose by the guests twinkling in the dark skies.

and the party continued as they danced the night away... for photos, click here

Congratulations Sarah and HP!!!


PS. Unfortunately, early in the morning the next day, HP's father passed away suddenly from heart attack. We extend our deepest condolences to the family and our prayers are with him.
