Don't gotta tell me. My fiancee's parents are from Hong Kong...I'm in for quite a ride when we have our big wedding :(...won't be so horrible though, I'm perfectly fine with most of it, the nonstop screaming and yelling will eventually get on my nerves though, and I may end up tying them all down to their chairs.

They traditionally eat the groom after the ceremony.

Good luck! :D

You will have to dress in the tradidtion dress <ao day> and the circular thing on your head. Then you will have to bow down to the parents, and on and on. Have fun and stay sane.

This is why I chose to ELOPE ;)

Eh, I'm used to it. I've been to plenty of them. My gf (also chinese) says that there's no way she's playing those stupid games if we get married. Fine by me.

Have you done the meeting of the families yet?

If you're getting married in America, they're probably not that much different from an American wedding.

Why have a vietnamese wedding? You live in an America, right? Why not have an American wedding?

Ok I head about this from friend. Apperantly the girl's family will put you on a life or death mission. If you come out alive you are then allowed to marry their daughter...(something like that...not sure though)
