Photos from María C. Lopez My father offered a toast for my husband and me, and we danced the waltz. My wedding is always going to be in my memory because it is the moment when we started a new life. My Marriage in Colombia María C. Lopez from Colombia I had my wedding in Cali, Colombia at a beautiful ranch called "Hacienda Las Mañanitas. It was a special day because I was the first one in the family from my generation to get married. The ceremony took place during the morning in a Christian church close to my house. After taking pictures with my family and friends, we went to the hacienda to have the wedding reception. That place was really beautiful; it was surrounded by trees, flowers and a water stream. At the entrance, there were two small columns with flowers and a red carpet which marked the path toward the reception room. My father offered a toast for my husband and me, and we danced the waltz. Later the bartenders and waiters served the food. We were dancing and sharing with the guests until five o'clock in the afternoon. My wedding is always going to be in my memory because it is the moment when we started a new life.
