We will be having a closed ceremony just for our immediate families, as we wanted to share this moment in a more intimate setting. Thank you for understanding, and see you at the tea ceremony or cocktail hour!
3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
We are so excited to invite our elders to come celebrate this tradition with us. While the tea ceremony is traditionally shared with elders, we are grateful to have all our family and friends here to witness this meaningful moment if you would like to attend!
The Chinese Tea Ceremony is a traditional way to show respect, gratitude, and love to our elders. During the tea ceremony, the bride and groom serves tea to their elders as a sign of appreciation and then receive blessings, gifts, and advice for their marriage. It is a meaningful moment that honors family - while also symbolizing love, unity, and the start of a new family journey.
