I am starting off the Asian culture wedding thread with an intersting paragraph I found about Chinese weddings. Something like this would be neat to add into your wedding if you wanted an Asian flair.


Chinese: Perform a traditional tea ceremony where the bride serves tea to her parents, and her new in-laws as a symbol of respect. To update the tradition, the groom can serve tea with his new bride. The color red represents celebration and prosperity, and the Chinese character "xi" or double happiness bestows the wish of a happy life for the couple. Chinese weddings are festive celebrations in the full capacity of the word. The bride and groom are required by etiquette to make the rounds and toast each table individually to the loud cheers of the group visited. Sometimes members of the wedding party can be called upon to drink in place of the bride and groom in the event either party cannot hold his or her liquor.

Ooooooooh I like this theme!!! I'm so glad you ecided to do another theme Kacie!!! I've always had this fixation on Asian culture and decor. I've been to Japan once and it was one of the most beautiful places I have EVER gone to.

I actually saw these at a wedding show and inside of them were special little love dovey notes...

Lucky bamboo should never be bought for yourself as it's bad luck in some cultures, so it would be a beautiful favor or maybe even a centre piece...

Orchids are very Japenese. They would make a beautiful table centre, especially in a bold colour or a white to stand out I think anyway...
