Ready for the big day

Yes, my son is getting married soon. Both the couple wanted a simple marriage but the boss insisted on a wedding dinner.

The date was chosen last year. Nothing much was planned. But recently, my sister-in-law said that something must be done according to the Hakka culture even though the bride is a Christian.

First of all, a prayer to the ancestors must be carried out. Some preparation are needed to be done such as getting the right stuff for prayers. Imagine myself not really into prayers. So my SIL will help to conduct the prayers.

What comes next, I'm not too sure. I was thinking that all is going to be easy but guess not. My SIL wants to discuss with me soon..

Anyway, looking forward to my son's wedding and also hope that all goes on smoothly.

Have a nice day, everyone!

    It is always the most joyous and happy occasion for parents when their children are happily married. Congratulations to Wenn & family.

    I was just like your son and requested for a simple wedding. My parents wanted a grand one as I was the last child to get married and booked 3 ballrooms venuw! Now all these are precious happy memories of my late parents.

    I am Hakka too..besides tea ceremony at my own house, and nothing else. Since we are both Christians, all formal ceremonies were done in the church. But, every households have their own believes, especially the request from the elderly.

      It's the request from my sisters-in-law. Most importantly the prayers to the ancestors and the tea ceremony.

my Fitline car http://www.pm-international.com.my Health is one of our most valuable commodities - this is clearly indicated by the huge growth in the market for nutritional supplements during the last few years.
