The Vietnamese tea ceremony (Đám Hỏi) is a traditional event in Vietnamese culture that symbolizes the union of two individuals and their families. In this ceremony the bride and groom pay their respects to their ancestors by offering tea and incense, after which they serve tea to their parents, elders, and close family members as a sign of respect and gratitude. The ceremony is a time for friends and family to come together, share the joy of the new couple, and offer well-wishes and blessings.

The Hindu wedding ceremony (puja) is a sacred event in Hindu culture that marks the union of two individuals and their families. The core of our ceremony will be a collection of rituals performed under a mandap and around a fire by a priest, bride, groom, and our respective sets of parents. Ultimately it symbolizes the couple's commitment to each other, their families, and their faith.
