After getting through the gate, the groom finally gets to collect his bride. At the door, he recited a romantic vow in Chinese while she listened from behind the door. Feeling touched, she welcomed him in. They exchanged rings and lifted the wedding veil before sharing a kiss.
Last in the agenda is the tea ceremony where the couple serve tea together to the elders in their families as an act of filial piety and acknowledgement. Then the couple accepted teas from the juniors of the family and gave them red packets as blessings.
Later in the evening, they have another short ceremony involving even more guest that leads to a beautiful dinner set in the garden. Seats were found, drinks were flowing and toasts was given. It was an absolutely lovely dinner under all the fairy lights.
We are glad not only being able to experience other culture but to also share our cultures in return during this unique wedding. Thank you for having us there with you.
