Serbian Wedding


Dijana & Steven's wedding was by far, the most celebrated wedding I've ever been to! Family and Friends danced from sun up to way past sun down to the traditional music of their homeland - Serbia. A 5-piece Serbian band was flown in from Arizona and lit up the streets of Vancouver while the Serbian flag fluttered in the wind among them.

What struck me the most about this wedding was the bond and connection with both families and the love, respect, acceptance and joy each and every one of them gave to one another. They even included me as part of the 'family'! I went home that night feeling so "full" and happy.

Dijana and Steven - You have given me such a precious gift! Thank you for letting me be a part of your day!
