Cambodian-American wedding in Silver Spring, Maryland

Saturday and Sunday May 23/24, 2008. I attended the wedding of Marianne Koch and Robert Hendricks. Marianne, the bride (born in the USA in 1980) is the daughter of Chanthary Kuy, whom I met for the first time at the Sam Rainsy meeting in April. Marianne is now a lawyer and she decided to marry Robert Hendricks (born in the USA in 1979), prosecutor, the two of them have met in grad law school. The Cambodian ceremony was held at the house of Chanthary and Marong Kuy in Silver Spring, Maryland, on the Saturday morning. A dinner party was organized on the Sunday evening in a Chinese restaurant of Gaithersburg, Maryland. The whole weekend gathered Cambodian folks from the area, but also from Chicago, Boston, California, Canada and from France.
