Was this a rehearsal, or the sign of things to come?
The bachelor son of the King and the single daughter of the Samoan paramount chief Mata‘afa, shared a happy moment as they were caught in a shower of confetti intended for the bride and groom, on the steps of the Centenary Church, Nuku‘alofa on November 29.
The Crown Prince Tupouto‘a, the heir to the Tongan throne, was the best man for his first cousin, Prince ‘Uluvalu Tuku‘aho who was married to Kaimana Aleamotu‘a. The hon. Naomi Mata‘afa from Apia, Western Samoa was the bridesmaid.
