anyone beeen to a vietnamese wedding?? all i remember.. is that we woke up early on the wedding day and did the whole.. first we went to the brides house for the breakfast, where there were like.. full roasted pigs n ducks n stuff ,, then we went to the grooms house and we all stood around the room while presents were being given.

hmm.. i've only been to vietnamese weddings that are semi westernised i think. anyway i notice theres a lot different than english weddings.. like how the bride isn't given away by her dad, and theres no throwing of the bouquet or bridesmaids or best man (or so from the weddings i've been to)

yeah ive been to vietnamese weddings. the bride and groom also go around each table at the party and get money and presents and stuff.

I've been to quite a few VNmese weddings, and all of them are buddhists. But i've never been to a Christian one. I'm guessing that they don't do the whole groom-go-to-bride's house and bride-go-to-groom's house and eat there at noon and then go to the restaurant in the afternoon.

They do that too.

I have seen a vietnamese marriage before back in thailand my parents use to know these vietnamese(i am not vietnamese) there son got marry and we were in invited to go to it.

I've actually never been to a real traditional Vietnamese wedding. I am Catholic and so all the Vietnamese I know who get married does the whole walking-down-the-aisle-throw-the bouquet bit. It just depends on religion and most of the weddings I have attended incorporate both Catholic and Vietnamese traditions. Vietnamese Catholics still pick the bride up at her house, dine on roasted pigs and all that good stuff, then we head out to church for the religious, hence Western, tradition.
One thing for sure though, no Vietnamese has ever managed to arrive at a reception on time!!! Some things never change hehehe.

I was at a Vietnamese wedding whereby the bride was Chinese and the groom was vietnamese. well as it happends all the family members from the bride side arrive on time, whilst the groom side was all late! I don't know if what i said was relevant but just wanted to post this.

is there any picture of how vietnamese wedding could be like?. thnks
