chocolatesuze & noods' tea ceremony
11 April 2010, 19:34
After taking photos at the gardens we arrive at Rhodes Phoenix (Level 5 Rhodes Shopping Center, 1 Rider Blvde Rhodes) for the tea ceremony. Lols i got my cheongsam from Paddy’s woot only $50 hehe usually the tea ceremony is done at the beginning of the day but i knew i wanted as much sleep as possible so i scheduled it at the restaurant 1 hour before our dinner reception. According to wiki the tea ceremony is to “connect large families on wedding days. Older relations so introduced would give a red envelope to the matrimonial couple while the couple would be expected to give a red envelope to younger, unmarried relations.”
Ima little teapot short and stout here is my handle here is my spout
Poh Poh and Gung Gung
Hullo parental units
Mmm moolah
Hullo Mrs Wong
And repeat with the rest of the rellies. YUM CHAAAAA!
Hullo brother
Happy baby!
Tee hee

— Sweets By Vicky Apr 12, 11:56 AM #hi there, my friend showed me your blog and i really like it!
I don’t know much about weddings so I was wondering, is the tea ceremony like an after party kind of event?
the little people on the teapot are adorable :)
— Michelle Apr 12, 12:06 PM #Lovely photos!!

— Lex Apr 13, 02:08 AM #The tea ceremony is the only ‘Chinese’ tradition that I’d prob have at my wedding. And it has nothing to do with the ang pows… well maybe just a lil.
