Friend Gathering Party
6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Please let Nina and Zach know if you can make it to our pre-wedding get-together! We want to catch up with all our friends before the wedding and introduce you to those who’ll be celebrating with us the next day. We hope it’ll be a fun evening where you can meet more local and out-of-town friends during this special moment. We’ll have drinks, savory nibbles, and desserts. There’s a firm end time, and we’d love your help making sure Zach isn’t too tipsy before the big day. 😄 This event is for friends of the bride and groom only.

About Traditional Taiwanese Wedding Ritual In the afteroon of our wedding, we’ll hold a traditional Taiwanese “Ying Qu” (迎娶) ceremony—where the groom’s family formally picks up the bride from her home back to the groom house. We have decided to use The Grand Hotel to be as Zach's family house. The event includes symbolic customs like door games, tea ceremonies, and blessings from elders. This will be the first time forthe new marriaged couple to call their partners' parents "Mom" and "Dad" It’s lively, full of meaning, and we’d love to have you there to experience this joyful part of Taiwanese culture with us!
