!! In the past, both men and women were expected to be married at quite young ages. Marriages were
generally arranged by parents and family, with their children having little chance to say no in the matter. In
the past it was not surprising to find that a bride and groom had only just met on the day of their engagement

or marriage.
In modern Vietnam, this has changed completely as people choose their own marriage-partners based on
love, and in consideration primarily to their own needs and wants. Moreover early marriage is quite illegal.
The traditional Vietnamese wedding is one of the most important of traditional Vietnamese occasions.
Regardless of westernization, many of the age-old customs practiced in a traditional Vietnamese wedding
continue to be celebrated by both Vietnamese in Vietnam and overseas, often combining both western and
eastern elements. Besides the wedding ceremony, there is also an engagement ceremony which takes place
usually half a year or so before the wedding. Due to the spiritual nature of the occasion, the date and time of
the marriage ceremony are decided in advance by a fortune teller.
The traditional Vietnamese wedding consists of an extensive array of ceremonies: the first is the
ceremony to ask permission to receive the bride, the second is the procession to receive the bride (along with


the ancestor ceremony at her house), the third is to bring the bride to the groom's house for another ancestor
ceremony and to welcome her into the family, then the last is a wedding banquet.
The number of guests in attendance at these banquets is huge, usually in the hundreds. Several special dishes
are served. Guests are expected to bring gifts, often money, which the groom and bride at one point in the
banquet will go from table to table collecting.

ceremony and to welcome her into the family, then the last is a wedding banquet.
The number of guests in attendance at these banquets is huge, usually in the hundreds. Several special dishes
are served. Guests are expected to bring gifts, often money, which the groom and bride at one point in the

ceremony and to welcome her into the family, then the last is a wedding banquet.
