Aileen, the PCV in the village next to me and my good friend, got married to her American non-PCV finance Adam last week in Letlhakeng.
We hung out at the Rural Administration Commission (RAC) for the officiant.
The actual ceremony was very Batswana in a room at the RAC, but they are MARRIED!
The happy couple and the officiants.
They got serenaded by everyone in the offices on their way out.
They had a nice reception at a little restaurant in Letlhakeng.
The bridal party.
Speechifying in true Botswana style.
The only bummer was the bridal party hit a donkey on the way back from the wedding, which dented the rental car and caused a few hours of insurance and police report stress.
But we celebrated more back at Aileen's place, including Jess making us all multiple smoothies. Congrats to the happy couple, who had to jump through a LOT of bureacratic mess to get married. PULA!
