Hu-Cheung Wedding, 2014, Oil on canvas, by Sam Day. |
Kristy and Will had
a simple, family centered wedding, packed with guests from both the United
States and Taiwan. The ceremony was presided over by two ministers, and
conducted in both English and Chinese, with translation for each. It was filled
with music, performed by friends of the musical couple, and also sung by the
congregation as a hymn, and included the serving of Communion. I more often
paint receptions than ceremonies, but the length of this one made it possible. The
couple met in this church, so a painting in the chapel itself has special
significance for them.
