This week we started to hand out our invitations. Traditionally, in Armenian families, we attend the guest's home and join them for a cup of tea or coffee as we present the invitations.

We recently shared famous Armenian Singer Mister X and Svetlana's stunning wedding on the Harsanik blog. The couple got married on November 1, 2015 with a beautiful ceremony at St. Leon Cathedral followed by a dreamy reception at the Renaissance Banquet. If you recall, Artur Hakobyan (Mister X) wrote a song for Svetlana and performed on their wedding day. Arthur and Svetlana decided to break down memories from their wedding day into a music video to share the song.
