Last night's wedding at the casino was quite the spectacle. Lots of people there, especially youngsters, and the energy was palpable. The decorations were first class and the live band was amazing, playing till 3:30 am. The wedding cake, complete with a working water fountain in the centre: Some of the kids:

The bride was a local Mexican woman who lost her 2-year old child last year last year in a tragic accident getting run over by a car. The groom is a Mexican man who moved to La Manz in the last year. Each individual cake in this exceptional display has a different flavour. The whole thing was made locally, and I believe the price is quite reasonable. | ------------------------Re: La Boda Grande

The bride is the daughter of Carmina, or Gol, who is the owner of Bocas restaurant, an icon in LM for several generations. Her mother Petra was a wonderful woman who passed about 8 years ago. Her father owns much of the land on the way to the falls. The groom is also local and his parents live up off the main road. Was an amazing affair...perhaps one of the best weddings I have attended here. And intended to lift the brides spirit because of the tragedy with her son.

Yes, this wedding was one of the most stunning we have seen, and you could feel the sense of fun and energy. It must have cost a small fortune! | ------------------------
