One of the main traditions that you will see practiced at our wedding is the action of “Chào bạn.” This simply means “Hello friend.” This is a time during the reception where the new wed bride and groom will greet each table and thank the guest for coming. In return, the table will come up with a challenge for the couple to earn a wedding gift in the form of money. These challenges will included things like: take a shot along with the wedding party, kiss the bride in front of the table etc. Some table will take it to the extreme and build a shot tower on top of the money. Then the couple will have to finish all the shots before receiving the monetary gift!
Vietnamese wedding's are a very important event in Vietnamese culture. It is customary for the bride and groom to have up to 3 or 4 outfit changes!
