Asian Wedding Traditions |

Incorporating ethnic traditions into your wedding can create a
more intimate environment for you and your family.
While we most associate the color white with wedding in this
country, the color red is the color of weddings in China. Red is
the color of luck and joy, and it makes perfect sense that it is
such an important color for weddings. You can incorporate the
red color in a variety of ways such as the tablecloth, candles,
napkins, and other decorations. You may change into a red dress
during the wedding reception. You may choose red wedding
Wedding, or your bridesmaids may wear a red dress. You can
create a Chinese feel without red by dressing |

in a tradition
Chinese dress. White is not a color used in Chinese traditional
weddings. White is used at funerals, so avoid white on your
invitations, decorations or bridal clothing. Do not use red ink
on white paper, because white implies death and is used at
funerals. Gold on reddish paper or cream color paper works well.
Chinese couples honor their ancestors with a tea ceremony. It is
not only a beautiful ceremony, but it could be very educational
and entertaining for your guests.
Another Asian tradition, from India, is having the brides and
groom's hands and feet painted with henna. The tradition is
normally performed by a henna |

professional. The hand and foot
henna stains the skin for up to a few weeks.
Japanese weddings include a sake ritual. It is also know as the
sake sharing tradition. This ritual represents building a strong
bond between the families. The sake ritual can be part of the
wedding ceremony or the wedding reception. Sake cups can make
great wedding favors for a Japanese wedding ceremony.
There is no law that you have to have an ethnic wedding, but it
may add sentiment to your big day.
