Thai
Wedding Package
Ceremony includes
• Long drum parade
The wedding begins once the groom, accompanied by the celebrant,
leads the colorful "Long Drum Parade" to where the vows
will take place. At the entrance, two friends or relatives of the
bride are holding a golden ribbon to block the way. After giving
them a symbolic token, the groom gets to enter the venue.
• Engagement ceremony
The celebrant then addresses the bride’s family and
guests. The bride enters the venue and the engagement begins. Gifts
of either envelope containing money, or presents that have been
placed in a basket beforehand are now checked by the bride’s
mother or relative. Once all is agreed the groom presents the engagement
ring to the bride.
• Buddhist ceremony
Invited Monks chant prayers of health, happiness and prosperity
for the wedding couples’ marriage. In return, the couple presents
the monks with alms and food.
• Watering ceremony
The bride and groom then kneel together, and a holy string is draped
from one person’s head to the other, forming a circle and
connecting the couple. This symbolizes their spiritual union. Flower
garlands are presented and powder is placed on the forehead. They
then " Wai " by clasping their palms together in the traditional
prayer-like gesture while one by one the guests pour a conch shell
full of sacred water over the couple's hands while saying a blessing
for good luck.
