Multicultural Wedding Ceremony

Much of the couple’s ceremony was in Irish, one of Eoin’s childhood languages, but Sonya and Eoin incorporated English and Malayalam -- the language of the state of Kerala, where Sonya’s parents are from -- as well. A comprehensive program helped guests understand all the traditions, like the Irish blessing of St. Brigid and Malayalee Christian tying of a thali and blessing of a mandrakodi.
