Ksenia and Thomas

Ksenia and Thomas were married at Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens http://www.lewisginter.org/ at the Bloemendaal House on September 10, 2011. Ksenia, a native of Ukraine, and her groom were presented with the Korovai by the brides parents. This is an elaborately decorated multi-tier bread adorned with two birds, made out of dough which represent the couple, and other birds which represent family and friends. The entire arrangement is surrounded by a wreath of periwinkle, a symbol of love and purity and is usually accompanied by a shot of Smirnoff. Music for the evening was played by the talented and fun Eric Cunningham from Choice Entertainment www.choiceentertainment.com.
