The other day I mentioned that I flew to Hongkong to attend my nephew's wedding.
Here are some of the photos of the radiant young couple
The very important & significant "tea ceremony"
The young couple knelt to serve tea to the parents, then to a long queue of senior members of the family. After showering the young couple with well wishes & blessings: they gave gifts of jewelry & "lye si" (red packets with cash in it) Note the numerous gold bracelets on both the bride's arm & the necklaces around her neck!!
My brother-in-law, added yet another gold bracelet to the bride's forearm |
