He was a very healthy old man who shocked everyone on his sudden passing. I checked the Chinese calendar later and was shocked that the wedding's date would result in death and bad luck. Instead of blaming themselves for being ignorant, they quietly blamed the bride for bringing bad luck into the family!! I could not say a word on this but took it as a lesson observed. That cousin has been having no ending of bad luck after getting married for over 10 years. Again I could not advise him as we have different religious faiths.Twilight Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04574109866770324683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3931670157192181682.post-65627555770973365872014-03-18T12:22:50.768+08:002014-03-18T12:22:50.768+08:00I am glad that you followed the beliefs accordingl...I am glad that you followed the beliefs accordingly as they are all real matters not be taken lightly.

If it is my wedding, I don't mind people who just attended a funeral attending my wedding too.<br /><br />But for some people, even if you did not attend the funeral but the funeral is for a relative, then the person also is barred from attending the wedding. Just depends on what they believe in.munhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11449093706822850017noreply@blogger.com
