Schedule

Traditional Cambodian Ceremony

8:00 am - 5:00 pm

For Day One, guests are welcome to wear traditional Cambodian attire to honor the ceremonies, or cocktail casual if preferred. We encourage comfortable, respectful outfits suitable for a day of meaningful rituals, blessings, and family celebrations.

Day 1 is dedicated to traditional wedding rituals that symbolize love, respect, prosperity, and the joining of our families. Throughout the day, guests will experience a series of meaningful ceremonies that honor our culture and heritage. The day begins with the Introduction Ceremony, a ceremonial procession representing the groom and his family arriving with offerings, symbolizing gratitude, respect, and the union of 2 families. This is followed by the Hair Cutting Ceremony, a symbolic ritual where elders and honored guests participate in a mock hair-cutting to bless the couple with harmony, wisdom, and a fresh beginning together. Guests will also witness Blessing and Prayer Ceremonies, during which monks or elders offer prayers for happiness, good health, and a strong, loving marriage. One of the most meaningful moments is the Knot Tying Ceremony , where family, friends and elders tie red strings around the couple’s wrists as a symbol of unity, love, and lifelong commitment.

The celebration continues! On the day after our traditional Cambodian ceremonies, we invite you to join us for a fun-filled wedding reception full of music, dancing, and good times. A live band will be playing throughout the night, so come ready to celebrate and hit the dance floor. Each guest table will be stocked with beer and hard alcohol to keep the party going. If you’re craving something different, a bar will also be available where additional drinks may be purchased. Let’s eat, drink, dance, and celebrate love!
