Korean Flower Girl

Claudia was asked to be the flowergirl for one of our Korean Staff members wedding. Here are some of the shots from the day.
Korean weddings are very different to Western weddings. First of all the whole thing, service and reception is over in 2 hours. They are not usually held at churches, but in Wedding Halls, where they have the procession of weddings. Each wedding party has the same decor and flowers and minister. It is still very special and romantic, just very different. I liked the part where we were leaving the wedding hall and the next wedding party was waiting at the door to come in.
Another interesting fact is that the bride and groom can see each other before the wedding and the bride sits in the Bride room and guests can come and take photos of her before the wedding. about a month before the wedding the bride and groom get dressed up in their wedding clothes and have their wedding photos taken then so the photos can be displayed at the wedding.

Another tradition was that the friends for the bride sing while they sign the register - so all the staff had to sing. It was fun.


Here is my little flower girl for you all











This is my favourite - the take another photo and I will kill you shot.
