Weddings in My Country

Wedding is a day that is one of the most important day in the life of everyone. In my country, wedding is selected before about 2 months. The same things with many countries in over the world, in Vietnam, having many preparations for this day like take the wedding pictures, make wedding card, set the wedding feast, buy wedding ring, invite wedding guests, etc. On this day, the groom, his parents and relationships come the bride's house to hold a rites that is called the ancestral ceremony. After that, if they are Christians, they will have the wedding ceremony in the Church. They will hand over the wedding rings each other in the Church. To finish the wedding ceremony, they will take the pictures with the parish priest, their parents, the relationships, their friends and their guests. Next, they will go to the restaurant or hotel where they ordered their wedding feast. If they are not Christians, they will hold the ancestral ceremony in the bride's house and go the restaurant or hotel where they ordered their wedding feast. Sometimes, the wedding feasts are hold in the bride or groom's house. It can say that the wedding is the happiest day that you recieve many congratulations from your parents, your relationships and your friends and is one of the unforgetable days in life.
