This brings me back to when my wife and I got married in Nonthabury almost ten years ago. Nearly 300 "strangers" were there to help us celebrate (along with just one other farang!). It was truly one of many "National Geographic moments" I've been involved in, since discovering the Kingdom. Lucky for us - my wife's mother returned half of the sinsod! Thanks again, Serg - for another awesome video!

These are a local, countryside style of marriage. I had gone to my cousin wedding and it kinda like this too, but not this extravagance. Normally they tend to do very simple in countryside lower class, very big in countryside middle class, simple and small in Bangkok middle class because no one got time to do it that big, or go super extra if you are in Bangkok and got shit load of money. 10:09 about the money, yes, in the past they really give all of it to the bride side, because of "woman do housework and taking care of child" smth like that. But now it is kind of show off to the people in the wedding that the groom can taking care of the bride. Sometime if you are not wealth as fuck and really want to show off, you just borrow some gold and money from someone to place there for the photo. But if you didn't care that much, you can use your real money, show it off nicely, give them all to the bride family. Then usually they will give the new couple all the money to start a new live because now woman didn't just stay at home and do all the housework anymore. 11:18 Ring exchange is normal too, everyone does that, even back then 30-40 years ago afaik. Thai just mixing it all and come up with this, Buddhism thing+local ghost thing+Chinese style dinner, western style ring exchange/flower throwing/couple clothes, anything that you think it's nice.

At the monk hospital : With Thai ceremony, the monks prayed for us best luck and we offered food to the monks and donated money to the sicked monks. The close family and friends blessed us with holy water. At home : Chinese style ; offered tea to my parents and family to get their consent and get the Red envelopes with money as gifts. After that had a small family party. At the restaurant later in the evening : Wedding party. Result ; Almost break down late at night.🤣
