My cousin's wedding

Actually, it is Rebecca's cousin's wedding.
It is a two day event with the first wedding banquet in Chiayi, the groom's home; and then the second wedding banquet at the bride's home in Pingtung.

We left Hualien Friday noon and arrived at our hotel in Chiayi in the evening, a seven hour road trip.


Hotel is very nice and the price is right. Frankie is happy as long as she has her own bed...

Because the couple is already living together and away in Kaoshiung, it is symbolic to follow the Chinese custom of bringing the bride home, therefore, the groom's party drove two hours to Pingtung to pick up the bridal party and brought them to the groom's family home in Chiayi. Frankie was the "door girl" who opened the door for the bride and received a nice "red envelope". Easy money she said.....


Then it was the wedding banquet........

Followed the next day with another banquet at the bride's hometown hosted by her family......
