‘I feel very moved’-SARAH JACK, groom’s mother

DSC_0135How does it feel seeing your son get married?

I feel very moved because he is my only child. Even though it seems they come from different backgrounds they are very similar in nature.  Their background is cosmopolitan. They will always be as happy as they are now.

What is your advise for them?

To be happy, always look inward, do things they find meaningful. They should always forgive and they should not go for revenge.

What was your reaction when your son brought her to see you?

I didn’t think otherwise. I didn’t do it the traditional way. My parents wanted me to marry from my country but I married from Russia.
