Ezgi & Jean Baptiste Wedding Part 1

Uc farkli evlilik toreninin yorgunluguna, uc balayi yakisir dedim ve hala ikincisini bitiremedim. Haliyle tatilin yaratmis oldugu rehavetin havasiyla karsinizdayim sevgili okur.

Bizim evlilik surecimiz, digerlerine kiyasla daha farkli asamalardan gecti diyebilirim. JB in Paris'te benim Zaragoza'da yasiyor olmam her turlu belgenin toplanmasi, organizasyon vs. gibi islerde normale oranla bizi biraz daha yorsa da simdi fotograflara baktigimda goruyorum ki her seyden alnimizin akiyla cikivermisiz. Farkli ulkelerde yasayip ve ustune bir de daha farkli bir ulkede dugun yapmaya kalkisiyorsaniz buyrun dogru mekandasiniz, hosgeldiniz !

Uc toren de birbirinden ozeldi. Fakat kilise nikahimizin benim icin en farklisi oldugunu soyleyebilirim. Kiliseye adimimi atar atmaz hic bir seyin aslinda izledigimiz o Amerikan filmlerindeki romantik sahnelere benzemeyecegini anlamistim. Bu toren bekledigimden daha farkli olacakti. Biraz saskin, epeyce heyecanli ve duygusalligin doruklarinda bir Ezgi olarak girdim o kapidan. Megersem bu torenin dunyanin en eglenceli kilise toreni olacagindan haberim yokmus. Bir an birbirimize bakip acaba biz How I Met Your Mother da bir kilise sahnesinde miyiz dedigimizi bile hatirlar gibiyim. Bir kilise dusunun Fransiz ve Turk misafirlerin doldurdugu, bir de Afrikali aksaniyla ingilizce toren yapan bir rahip... Sonunda o kapidan ciktigimizda herkesin gozyaslari kahkahalarina karismis yuzleri ile pirinc yagmurunun gercek yagmurla karisimi bir hava karsiladi bizi. Boylece kutlu dugun gunumuzun sabahi unutulmaz anilarla baslamis oldu bile.

For three different wedding ceremony, I said “Ezgi you should make three different honeymoon to rest”. First one is done with girls and now I am still on the second one with my family but it will be also done soon. Naturally, I am writing to you with vacation lassitude dear reader.

Our marriage process had different stages when it's compared with others. As JB was living in Paris and I was living in Zaragoza, it wasn't easy collecting all important documents and organize everything. But today when I look at all those pictures I see that we did quite a good job. If you both are living in different countries besides if you make two wedding ceremony in another country, you are in the right place, welcome to club !

I can not apart three of them. But I can say that church ceremony was the most different one for me. As soon as I step into church, I understand that this ceremony will be more gripping than the ones we see in romantic American movies. I was little bit confused, pretty excited and emotionally at peak level. But at the same time, i didn't know that this ceremony will be the most funny one I've ever seen. I remember even for one moment we casted a glance each other and said “are we in a church scene of How I Met Your Mother.” Imagine a church filled with French - Turkish guests and a priest leads ceremony in English with his African accent... At the end, we were greeted by our guests whose laughters mixed with tears and shower of rice with a real shower. So, our big wedding day started with already an unforgettable moment.

Kilise konusmalari icin bastirdigimiz kitapciklarimiz.

Booklets we distributed for the speeches.
