Voodoo Wedding

A trip to New Orleans to be married by Bloody Mary The iconic voodoo priestess of the irresistible charm of which she carries A beautiful courtyard is the setting for the big event Seats filled with family friends and from up above spirits sent You could fill the presence of the spirit world in the air A ceremony to be filled with energy wisdom positive love and lots of flair A crow caws with approval just as the ceremony begins. Containing the spirit of granddad within A drawing on the pavement of a heart a symbol of their love and a new life together A rope to tie a hand showing binding eternal love for each other You are not just marrying the person but the goddess of love A piece of cake is given to be shared The remainder is given back to the earth with care Negative thoughts written down by both create a sense of positivity and peace to be churned At the conclusion champagne to be shared by all, a voodoo doll each to the happy couple standing tall In the end such a beautiful wedding and spiritual cleansing A great gathering of people past and present leaves both newlyweds beaming

Hi Karl thanks for the kind thoughts .Especially when my daughters wedding was in New Orleans a year ago today Friday 13 .My first thoughts were what kind of wedding.Turned out to be such a wonder wedding.A sidebar my dad who loved crows who has since passed as they were exchanging their vows a grow showed up and started cawing excessively.The priestess said she has preformed thousands of ceremonies never had a bird show up.Have a great day
