Mixed couple Christian from the Philippines and Kat who has Indian heritage recently invited family and friends to be part of their love story with a Bollywood themed welcome dinner. Hosted at The Stone House, it was a superb evening with all the energy of a colorful Indian festival. Similarly, Fisca and Ming chose to have a traditional Javanese Akad ceremony at The Glass Stage. This also involved the age-old Javanese custom Sungkeman with both the bride and groom kneeling before their parents as an expression of gratitude for nurturing them from birth to adulthood.
A symbolic Buddhist Blessing at Tirtha Uluwatu Chapel was how Melia and Suwandi chose to seal their union in accordance to their faith. The couple bowed down before a golden statue of the Buddha where they promised to water the seeds of love and support each other on the path to enlightenment.
The grandeur of a time-honored Indian wedding was on full display when Keya and Aditya sealed their love at Tirtha Uluwatu. A small gathering of traditionally costumed family members participated in a ceremonial procession to escort the bride to her groom. Several symbolic rites, including a Holy Fire Ritual, were performed throughout the course of the afternoon.
Meanwhile, America and Iranian couple Jesse and Mahsa enjoyed the splendor of a Sofreh Aghd ceremony at The Stone House. This Persian wedding custom included a lavish wedding spread set out on a decorated table. It featured an array of edible items believed to tie the newlyweds together and bring them love, happiness, health, and good fortune.
Sho and Vanda also recently exchanged vows with a unique Japanese and Javanese ceremony. It was conducted in the elegant ambiance of the Plumeria Room of the Glass House decorated with Japanese touch where hundreds of white origami cranes were suspended from the ceiling. The groom wore a Hakama with respect to his Japanese background and the bride looked radiant in a lace Javanese attire and matching veil.
Supported by a team of professional event organizers, designers, florists, and culinary experts, any style of a multi-cultural wedding celebration is more than expected at Tirtha.
