Biography

GROOMING THE BRIDE
October 1995
Tarascon

“She has been on a regime—strict diet and sunbed—for many months, so as to look her best! A Gitan wedding is an expensive affair. The three dresses, ordered specially from Madrid, can add up to U.S. $5,000. In addition, there is the hire of the church and Salon des Fêtes and, of course, copious quantities of champagne, whiskey, beer, wine, and delicacies to satisfy a thousand guests.”
