The traditional Serbian Ceremony took place at St. George Serbian Orthodox Church in
Schererville, Indiana. In the Serbian church there is no exchange of the vows. Instead, the
services are full of ritual and symbolism such as the joining of the hands, the crowning,
drinking wine from the Common Cup and the ceremonial walk around the table which
bears the cross and Gospel as their first steps of the common life.
IIija and Tina's heritage followed through to the reception. The Halls of St. George was
beautifully decorated with elegant mocha linens and chaircovers as well as eclectic décor.
The graceful color palette of mocha, lilac, dusty lavender, spring green and gold made
for a romantic soft look. In her Enzoani ivory lace and tulle dress, the Bride danced to
traditional Serbian music with her new husband and their guests.
As a young girl, Tina dreamed about her wedding and marrying her prince charming. As a
Bride-to-Be, she focused to make that dream come true. On her wedding day everything
was perfect; the dress, the hall, the flowers, the food, the whole ambience, but most of all,
Tina married her prince charming and that’s what made it the best day of her life!
