Vietnamese Wedding vs German Wedding

Since we’re going to have two weddings, there’s lots of different customs and traditions. So in this video we decided to sit down together and talk about everything from Vietnamese fortune-tellers setting dates, to hosting thousands of guests and quirky German wedding games.

german boyfriend waving from the bushes killed me

I can’t wait for you to start calling him “German husband”

German bf is a disney princess in an adult guy's body. Look at him picking flowers and hiding behind the bush so adorable 😂❤

German boyfriend saying ‘I don’t want anyone wearing a green suit but me 😢’ is adorable and totally understandable!! He should get to have his big day of standing out too 🥰🥰🥰

When I got married in Thailand, I proposed to her on a wednesday. We tiold her mom and she immediaely told us we had to go to a monk and find an auspicious date.
We did the same day, and he told us: In two days. 48 hours later we were married in a wedding with hundreds of people. We have been happily married for 17 years now.
Wish you the best!

Honestly, the idea of making a photoshoot in advance is brilliant. That way the "fancy" pics can be redone if they turn out shitty and the couple can focus on enjoying the wedding, and the photographer can focus on the spontaneous pics of everyone. 10/10 would consider.

Your hubby is a funny guy. "In Germany we also have fortune tellers. They are in the Amt, and if you don't take the appointment, there will be no wedding."

Love it!

Uyen-My friend in Thailand married an American. The Thai wedding became a comedy. The Bhuddist priests gave the bride the day using bride n groom’s birthdates. All the guests arrived from all over the world to Thailand. All of a sudden the Priests realized that when they set the date, they used the groom’s date as if he was born in Thailand NOT the US which of course was a day earlier than Thai time! They redid it and said they had to wait 3 weeks. With guests from all over, that couldn’t happen so the Priests found a lucky number day so the wedding was only delayed 2 days! So be sure when you give the fortune teller his day of birth give them the day it would be in Vietnam!

I love how German Boyfriend participates, but at his comfort level. You both are a great team.

"You can't ever leave me, not even spiritually!" -Uyen in love 😈

Thank you. I photographed weddings for many years in USA. I would really try to talk the couple into "before photos". It was seldom agreed upon. Customs die hard. Those that agreed, were very appreciative. The day runs so much more smoothly.

I organised my sister’s bachelorette party, and her and her besties wanted to do something chill, relaxing and fun, because they work a lot, and most of them have children. we went out for brunch, did a pottery class, made home made cocktails, and did some fun skincare while watching a movie from our childhood. Everyone loved it 🥰

"So life is worth living again".. lol, thats exactly what I feel when spring starts in Norway.

[zedudli]

Describing the best man as the contact guy for the catering is the most german thing I have ever heard 😂😂

"Fortune tellers & Thousands of guests"!! Like a Gilmore Girls episode title!!

American here - it's very common to leave for the honeymoon right after the wedding. For ours, we left the wedding reception and drove 2 hours to our hotel then the next morning drove another 4 hours to the beach. Most people I know leave the wedding and go stay at a nice hotel before continuing on to their honeymoon.

For avoiding the issue of guests expecting you to drink too much, you can do what we did in my bar when patrons pressured us to drink with them: have non-alcoholic beer and cocktails ready. We had code names: "Super strong beer" and "Tipsy Loo"

❤ "I like dancing and limousines too". I want Uyen to have the very best bestest wedding & hope she gets to do all the traditions that she wants!

As a Norwegian going to a Vietnamese wedding in Vietnam next week, this video is a life saver!!! Thank you so much!

[helenbartoszek]

So the best thing to do is get married in Vietnam first so you have the money to pay for the German wedding! Haha!! 😃 I'm so excited for you both!!! Much love to you from me in Australia.
