Black and white lantern slides showing a Peruvian Christian couple at their wedding ceremony, Francisco and Inez (the title of the slide is generated from a list in the original housing of the collection). Inez wears a traditional Western style wedding gown with a veil and holds a bouquet of flowers. She puts her arm through that of her husband, Francisco, who wears a dark suit. Two bridesmaids stand at either side of the couple - one girl is Peruvian, and another girl is European. This slide comes from a collection created by the Peruvian Inland Mission, an evangelical mission started in 1930 by Miss Annie G Soper in northeast Peru, which was administered by the evangelical interdenominational mission, Regions Beyond Missionary Union from 1948.
