So, Please meet the bride, Maggie Chui! I was very pleased to be one of the guest! For Chinese who get married usually would have a wedding banquet either at chinese restaurant or hotel ballrooms. Chinese would have a tea ceremony during the day time where bride and grroom need to serve tea to parents, senior relatives to get their blessings. The parents and the relatives in return will present the couple with angpows or jewelleries.
Besides tea ceremony, the bride would have bridesmaids( Ji Mui in chinese) and the groom would have his groomsmen(Heng Dai). The groom and his men will come over to Bride's place to fetch the bride and before they manage to do so, the Bridesmaids will have various of games to play with them and also to get red packet from them before allowing them to do so. It is a fun tradition!
Usually, We need to wait for all the guests arrival before we can start the dinner, so people usually take this opportunity to capture pictures with the bride!
So, Here are the shots that have been taken on the night!
Program mes of the night are different as these will be depending on the host! As for this one, magician is hired to entertain the guests.
So now...The dinner is about to start...... This is the same for every wedding dinner! Ladies and Gentlemen...Please give a loud applause to welcome the bride and the groom!!!!
So, they will walk along the re carpet with romantic music and till they settle at the VIP table...Then the foods will start to b served hot on each table!
So, Here is the menu for the dinner. The foods are almost the same in each wedding dinner as Chinese like foods that symbolize good meanings for their marriage.
Let me show you the foods for the night!
Then another MUST program@ Chinese wedding is TOSSING Ceremony whereas the couple and their parents will be on the stage and tossing their champagne with the guests!
Usually the Mc will start the ceremony with a long long winded Yammmmmmmm Sengggggggggggggggggg with the guests..It is believed that the longer it goes, the better it would be....:)
So, what's next?People will continue eating and some stay till the end and some would be leaving early.
For, yesterday case...a lot of people left early as it is World cup fever! Argentina vs Germany! What a match! So people cant miss this!
Then end of the wedding reception, the host will thank the guests at the exit!
Anyway, it was a happy and meaningful day for the couple!Hope they stay together and an everlasting love story!
