My Hindu Wedding (continued)
Initially his family had a hard time believing that their son wanted to marry a foreigner. I wrote them many letters and sent pictures, in an effort to help them feel more secure about my character and family background. I feel this was key in helping my husband's family accept our decision to be together. I tried to make them understand that I respected their traditions and was excited about learning and participating in them, to the extent that I decided on celebrating our wedding in a Hindu ceremony in India with Vinesh's family!

Having an Indian wedding changed my life. During an Indian Ceremony the groom places sacred red pottu or bindi on the forehead of his bride to open her eyes to a new life. As the South Indian sun rose on our wedding day to the calling of parrots and the chants of the priests, my eyes opened to a beautiful new culture that has now become part of me.
