A wedding tea ceremony, often part of traditional Vietnamese/Chinese weddings, is a significant ritual that symbolises the union of two families.
During the ceremony, the newlyweds serve tea to their families and elders as a gesture of respect and gratitude.
We will be taking a more modern interpretation of the tea ceremony.
Starting with the bride’s side, families will be invited up one by one, to give their blessing and to receive tea from the couple, with some time for a few photos (because we all know Jana loves a photo!)
