website. Thanks to dear Lally and dear Amrita (younger daughter of Mira and one and only sister of the newly wedded MONISHA)
for emailing the details.
This is the first wedding from the 4th generation of TPS KATTAR family. Therefore it is a historical
wedding for us. We are fortunate by God’s grace Ma/big sister was very much present and the new couple received
blessings together with Mom of Mira, Rita maini, Annan and Jessey Maini from Colombo,
Mr. and Mrs. Lali and Ladislaus Rodrigo, and others. The choir sang 'You by my side' when the groom walked into the church, followed by the 'Bridal March' when the bride
walked in.
The bestman was
Deebak Dyas (the groom's brother). The
ring bearer was Vivian Louis (the groom's cousin). The Bridesmaid was Anusha Rayen. The page boy was Vinit Rayen. The

same priest - Rev. Fr. Marian. Rev. Fr. Gnanaprakasam, the first parish priest of St. Antony's Church blessed the garlands
