The wedding
This is the only woman who counts at a wedding, unless the official doing the job is female. This is Gianna after she arrived walking down the street hand in hand with Paolo to be married before her friends. Gianna’s puppy, Zorro, also married Paolo, piping up with a shrill “bau, bau, bau” as Gianna said her “Sì” to the official. You can see that the bride was lovely in ivory. Zorro wore a red bow.
This is the important man, Paolo, in an ironic moment. (Paolo knew he was marrying the dog as well.)
The deed is done, I cried only a little. I cry at the weddings of total strangers, so naturally I cried for these two. I also cry at parades and when I hear marches, so don’t take my tears too seriously.
When more photos are available I’ll post more about the wedding, because there were many interesting things about my first Italian wedding. These photos were taken by Susanne Munshower, beauty reporter.
