A Khmer Wedding

Two of my colleagues got married last weekend. They’re only in their early 20s. They met in the office.  She is dusky and very pretty. He is skinny but cute and a really nice guy. No wonder she fell in love with him. We never suspected they’re an item so when they handed out the invitation to their wedding, we were surprised, pleasantly, of course. Here are some pictures  I took on their wedding reception:

My colleagues all dressed and made up prettily.
