Wedding

Hi. Today I went to a wedding of my C friends, T and L. T's parents are Buddhists, but T himself is a C, so he had asked me to read some scripture at his wedding, which I did. In the photo, you can see the "altar" where the outdoor ceremony took place. Weddings here are very different than the ones back home. The Chinese character in the background means "double happiness," and is used almost exclusively for weddings. The ceremony itself is not legally binding, but registering with the government office in charge of marriage is what makes the marriage legally binding. I'll try to send more photos of my life here as time goes by!
