The Thai wedding is a living kaleidoscope of music and dance,
reflecting the beauty and grace of Thai culture. A sacred
institution that has evolved and thrived for thousands of years. The
wedding can take place in a number of perfect setting to realize
your dream of a
sunset and
sunrise tropical beach,
jungle and waterfall,
Buddhist
temple wedding with Thailand’s specialists in outdoor weddings.
There are a number of ways the ceremony can be conducted. Firstly,
before the wedding the couple can embark on a photo session that can
take place somewhere like an elephant camp (traditional weddings in
the past used elephants) Secondly, the bride and
groom may pray at a Buddhist temple before attending the wedding.
The wedding proper begins with the groom, accompanied by the
celebrant, leading the colorful "Long Drum Parade" across the garden
or beach to where the vows will take place. Before the altar, the
groom is joined by the bride. Dressed in a traditional,
close-fitting, brightly colored Thai silk outfit she has been hidden
nearby. The celebrant then addresses the bride and groom, and
guests. To the traditional Thai music, the couple solemnly
pronounces their vows and exchange rings. The cake is cut and
champagne toasts (that can be accompanied by fireworks) are
made. Invited Monks chant prayers of health, happiness and
prosperity for the wedding couples’ marriage. In return, the couple
present the monks with alms and food. The bride and groom then kneel
together, and a holy string is draped from one persons head to the
other, forming a circle and connecting the couple. This symbolizes
their spiritual union. Flower garlands are presented and powder is
placed on the forehead. They then Wai by clasping their palms
together in the traditional prayer-like gesture while one by one the
guests pour a conch shell full of sacred water over the couple's
hands while saying a blessing for good luck. Gifts of either
envelopes containing money, or presents that have been placed in a
basket beforehand are now checked by the bride’s mother. The
ceremony is completed with the newlyweds planting a "Love Tree " at
as a gesture life of love. The newlyweds are then returned to their
hotel room.
