The wedding consist of several ceremonies including asking permission to receive the
bride, the procession to the groom's house, the ancestor ceremony and the banquet party.

In the morning, the groom's mother and few close relatives would walk to the bride's
house with a present of betel to ask permission to receive the bride at her house. The date and
time of the ceremony is usually determined by a Buddhist monk or fortune teller.
In the procession to receive the bride, the groom and his family often carry decorated
lacquer boxes covered in red cloth to represent his wealth and which include various presents for
the bride's family. There are either 6 or 8 boxes, but never 7 because it is bad luck.
After paying their respects to their ancestors, the bride and groom will serve tea to their
parents who will then give them advice regarding marriage and family. During the candle
ceremony, the bride and groom's families union is celebrated and the mother-in-law of the bride
will open the boxes filled with jewelry and dress her new daughter-in-law in the jewelry.
Finally, the groom officially asks for permission to take his new bride home and they
make their way back to his house. During the reception, there is usually a 10-course meal and the
bride and groom make their rounds to each table to express their gratitude and also get money as
presents.
