Question

What happens at a Lao traditional wedding?

Answer

A traditional Lao wedding is vibrant, community-focused, and centers on the “Sou Khuan” ceremony, which symbolically unites the couple’s souls. Key rituals include the groom’s gift procession, passing through “silver and gold gates” guarded by the bride’s family, and tying white cotton threads around the couple’s wrists for blessings and prosperity.
