Sasha & Tanner (Traditional Serbian Summer Wedding at St. George Orthodox Church in Schereville Indiana) - Denver Colorado luxury editorial wedding photographer
Sasha and Tanner are some of the KINDEST, kindest people I have ever met in my life. Tanner is a professional basketball player in Europe, and of course these two met in college through sports (Sasha is a volleyball player). Sasha is Serbian, while Tanner is American, so their wedding was super unique, and had really cool fused elements to celebrate both of their nationalities joining together!!
We started the day off with a traditional Serbian morning party at Sasha’s parent’s home, and of course there was plenty of dancing and celebrating! It was so special getting to see my first Serbian line dances. There was plenty of food, all brought by guests, and Sasha got ready with her sisters.
The ceremony was at the incredibly vibrant Church, St. George Orthodox Church in Indiana, and we continued their wedding celebration at St. George Serbian Cultural Center. These two’s day was filled with so much joy (They both also have THE nicest families), and I’ll always look back at this day remembering how happy it was.
Bon Voyage to these two’s new life in Europe!
A traditional pig is sent over by the bride’s Kum (godfather and bestman) the morning of her wedding day! Here is their morning celebration at the bride’s parents house.
The guests then gathered outside the bride’s parent’s house for the barter of the bride (The groom’s brother came to negotiate a fair price for the bride!!)
Turns out, the bride’s nephews were the one to negotiate the bride’s side (how sweet)!
Eventually, a fair price and agreement was reached! And here comes the bride’s entrance!
And that!! Ends ends the night with some traditional Serbian line dancing :) Simply spectacular night <3!!
