Jessi and Chris, Part II Tea Ceremony

Filed under: Weddings — Jeannie @ 1:25 am

Being able to incorporate your culture/heritage in your wedding is always beautiful. Jessi and Chris had a traditional but somewhat modern Chinese tea ceremony.  Chris and the boys had to make “offerings” (red envelopes) to the bride’s sister, family in order to have Jessi’s hand in marriage. Chris must also complete set of tasks, in this case, get through security to knock on door, eat what ever was given to him (one pepper made Chris cry) name that tune and sing it, (was hard as it was in Cantonese, a dialect Chris) did not know…but luckily his groomsmen were there to help and word puzzle of favorite Jessi’s favorite lines...i.e. “Let Me Sleep on it”  Best part that I see in this tradition, is the gorgeous dress the bride gets to wear…..and Jessi found amazing sexy shoes!  More wedding photos soon…
