As Kerron Boston and Akeem Peter prepared to tie the knot Saturday, various exhibitors anxiously lime at their booths marketing their products at the decorated Roraima Duke Lodge.
It is Wedding Expo 2017 and Boston told Sunday Chronicle that she and husband-to-be Peter were hosting a ‘quen queh’ Friday night.
“We’re both excited about tomorrow. We will be doing our own vows. Tonight is good. We actually have a quen queh. We can’t do the full traditional thing,” she told Pepperpot Magazine.
Exhibitors in various booths display cosmetology, fashion, wedding decor and other creative pieces and services, as the music of pan created the background of the celebration.
Fashion displays of brides and grooms and wedding attendants in various cultures were awe-inspiring and even as five-year-old Tavyana Braithwaite displayed her mini-bridal gown like a doll the presence of the elegant fashions was the highlight of the evening’s affair at the opening night of Wedding expo.
Fashions worn by brides of the different cultures created an atmosphere of a Guyanese diversity in a wedding exhibition setting, as the shower of a fountain splashed around the Duke Lodge pool.
Amerindian, Chinese, East Indian, African and Christian wedding fashions were on display.
