A few weeks ago I wrote about my cousin’s wedding in China and now here are some pictures from the day.
The newlyweds' chariot has arrived in style!
All sewage caps along the bride and groom's path had to be covered with red paper held down by red bricks, to keep bad luck/spirits away.
On the back of the car was a tribute to their love, spelled out with flowers.
The groom carried his bride through the threshold of her building into the awaiting car as a shower of confetti rained all over them.
The wedding confetti got all over the place, making the car, the street, and people's hair shine in rainbow colors.
Apparently it's traditional to get one of these giant buns in Shandong. The bread is molded into all kinds of cool designs, like the dragon and phoenix on top and the flowers and fish all around them. And yes, it's edible!
They had their own theme created around their names!
The chandelier in the place was gargantuan and so much brighter than this picture shows.
The groom waited for his bride to enter the ballroom and then they walked down the aisle to the stage together.
Before walking down the aisle, the bride and groom share a kiss as the platform raised up and spun them around.
Following the ceremony, we ate lunch, which included these "double happiness" meatballs to celebrate the joy.
