Attending wedding dinners

Over the course of three days, we attended two wedding dinners here in Foshan. It was definitely an eye-opener for me, as they were the first local weddings which I attend. For Marcus, it was also a unique experience, as he was part of the brothers team (兄弟团) for the second wedding. And he was tasked with the responsibility of .... setting off the fire-crackers! Definitely an experience which NONE of us back in Singapore will have the chance to encounter!


This was the stage setting for the first dinner we attended. Notice that there are two tables on the stage? Both red VIP tables are actually placed there, and the immediate families (for the bride and groom) are seated there.


This is us at the first wedding dinner.

This is how their bridal car looks like. Really 花车 right? :D


These are how the firecrackers look like before you lit them!

It's really an eye-opener attending the local dinners. It's a way to absorb the local culture, and understand better how the Guangzhou people celebrate the major milestone in their lives.
