Faira and Alberto's Wedding - August 22, 2009


My best friend Alberto got married to the lovely Faira last weekend. Here are some pictures I took with my camera phone. I'll post better ones when I get them!








I was commissioned to do an art project for the wedding. The idea was to tell the story of how they met and what happens now that they are married. It took two weeks of hard work, having only a few hours every evening. I think I did a good job. Berto and Faira loved it and the guests got a kick out of it. I even made keepsakes that the happy couple handed out to all of the guests. With Alberto's help, I wrote the descriptions as well. My other friend Orlando translated the story into Spanish. Here you go:


Faira found Alberto in Las Vegas. He approached her and she smiled at him. They knew then that they were made for each other. But…..




…..She lives in L.A. She loves L.A. And…



….He lives in San Francisco. And He loves San Francisco. But for his new wife….




….He will happily relocate.





Here is how the story was displayed at the reception:

This morning, however, I was rocked. She said: "I had a dream that my Mommy died, you weren't around anymore and I got a new Mommy." I didn't know how to respond to this. I was rocked. Finally, I said, "Cyan, Honey. That was NOT a good dream. That was a bad dream." To this, she replies: "No, Daddy! My new Mommy was really nice to me. I liked her." Where did this come from?? I lectured her about how her mother and her father both love her very much. Even though Mommy and Daddy don't live together anymore, we still will always be there f
