The day after the wedding Claire and Sajal and his parents went to a temple to have their marriage blessed. According to Claire, however, the priest misunderstood and married them once again (quickly this time), so they have now been married four times. Unfortunately, it all happened before we were able to arrive, but we did get some pictures at the temple.
After this we went back to their home where many of Sajal’s family members were bringing gifts, mostly saris and shirts. When this was over the four parents were seated across from each other to bless and give gifts to one another.
Later in the day everyone went to the Pokhara Grande Hotel for the wedding bhoj, or reception. It was a lot of fun—lots of people, lots of dancing, and even some jumping in the pool.
