Shane and Taffy's wedding

If you are a long time reader of this blog, or you have lived here you probably know who Shane and Taffy are.  Shane is a Chinese brother who Jon and Josh baptized a few years back.  Shane met Taffy while she was studying Chinese in Hangzhou.  They had a long-distance relationship for a year, and then Shane went to Tennessee to study at MTSU.  They got engaged and then got married this past September.

In December, they traveled to China to celebrate their wedding with Shane's friends and family.

The wedding feast was held at Shane's parents' house in his home town.  We traveled with some other friends to help them celebrate their wedding.

It was a huge family/neighborhood affair.    I took several pictures of the preparations for the feast.



They actually cooked several dishes on these hot coals.





It takes a lot of dishes to feed a lot of people.

That is a lot of tofu, and vegetables.


While most of the family was preparing the meal, Taffy was in "town" at a beauty shop getting her make-up and hair fixed.  Then they took some pictures.



Then the wedding party traveled by decorated car back to the house.




When they arrived at the house, they set off many firecrackers for luck.

Taffy's parents were not able to make the trip to China, so they watched much of the festivities  via Skype on Taffy's iPad.



Our family and the happy couple.  We wish Shane and Taffy many many happy years together serving God.
