"Wedding Day Ceremony

On the day of the wedding, two families performs "hair dressing" ritual and "capping" ritual for the bride and groom respectively. Then the groom sets out to the bride's home, and he will inevitably be blocked at her door by her friends, and the bridesmaids will play door game with the groom and his attendants.  The bride and groom will then leave her home and proceed to meet the groom's parents for Tea Ceremony.  The wedding date ceremony ends with a feast which features elaborate Chinese wedding food."

# 47 Aisle decor ... again

Going with the pine cone theme, the aisle could be lined with LARGE pinecones and the chairs can be loop-de-looped with real, beautiful ivy that I would snag right off the trees. Either that or intertwined with hemp so that the lines would be more rigid. I would then hang pinecone cuties stuffed with fern at the bottom on the ends of alternating chairs. Ground is full of pinestraw. HA! Found my ceremony decor. Also, the tree that would marry us would be dripping with either baby pinecones and/or white origami cranes. Uhm, how would that really match my decor? Whatev, the little birds are so cute!! I'll think about it later...
