The Ceremony

For our overseas guests attending the wedding, we are offering transport from Ho Chi Minh City to Tân An.
A minibus is arranged to depart from the Hôtel des Arts Saigon at 7:30 AM.
If you're staying at a different hotel, please account for Saigon's renowned traffic delays to ensure timely arrival at the pickup point.
The Vu Quy Ceremony is a deeply-rooted Vietnamese tradition that symbolizes the bride's farewell to her family and her introduction to the groom's family.
This ceremony typically takes place at the bride's family home, where both families gather.
The groom, accompanied by his family and friends, comes to the bride's house bearing gifts wrapped in red cloth, which is considered auspicious.
The couple then seeks the blessings of their ancestors and prays at the family altar. Following this, the bride says her goodbyes and leaves her home with the groom.
The ceremony is marked with a combination of ancestral worship, traditional music, and exchange of vows and rings. It beautifully encapsulates the essence of family values, respect for traditions, and the joining of two families.
After our ceremony in Tân An, we'll be heading back to HCMC to continue the festivities! We've scheduled a cocktail reception to begin at 8pm, giving everyone ample time to refresh and relax after the journey back. Rest assured, transportation to HCMC will be provided. Stay tuned for more details on the venue – we promise it'll be worth the wait!
