On this week’s special episode of Choosing your Reflection, last week’s guest, Ashley, joins her husband Kevin as he recounts their wedding story. You’ll love listening to this charming couples' courtship in a way we haven’t had the chance to yet here at CYR -- from both sides! A high school math teacher, Kevin explains how he brought his work with him to crunch the numbers and tried to de-stress planning their wedding. Ever the practical joker with his friends, Kevin even walks us through the prank they tried to pull on his best man, and the special monogrammed nicknames his party put into their suits that made the groom’s party outfit unforgettable.
This week we have the privilege of speaking with Ashley, a graphic artist and recent bride who explains how she used her background in design to plan her trip down the aisle. Ashley also describes how she discovered her perfect dress not once, but twice! Carrying the wise words her mother told her years ago, Ashley shares how she learned that “things shouldn't be hard to reach when they're meant for you”.
Join us as we travel to beautiful Pakistan to chat with Zarah on Choosing your Reflection. Ever the headstrong free spirit, Zarah explains the unique opportunity she was given to not only get married herself, but to also marry her trailblazing soul with the cultural traditions she holds close. Our guest recounts how she used her creative talents to incorporate love letters to her husband Ahmed and New York City directly into her ceremonial wedding outfit. You’ll laugh and learn along with us as Zarah takes us on a ride through the whirlwind of parties, ceremonies and, of course, special outfits that comprise Muslim marriage customs.
