Ceremonies start early.

DJ from last night still asleep in the hammock when the make up started and the next days clothes rolled out.



One of the chickens was sleeping on the decorations and had to be kicked out (sorry already flew away).



The starting even is the grand walk to the brides house. Everyone from the “grooms side of the family” - in my case, fake, provided by the villagers, gather some distance away and march to the bride’s house:



Gifts to the bride are picked up and brought for the walk, including the pig.



Everyone went. Most walked to the line. Some can by moto.



A very long line.



At the head was I and the village MC. And at the very front, the Khmer musicians.







After the grand entrance, comes the introduction of the bride to the groom







The other big event of the day is the tying of string and pelting of seeds for luck.

String is tied by all well wishers.



And the the bride and groom is pelt from seeds from the ? Palm stalk.







Did I mention the photos shoots? Between each ceremony, a new change of clothes and more photos shoot. Day one. 5-6 outfits. Day two, maybe more.

Now onto the wedding dinner. My least favorite part.

You look good in Pink bro, suits ya

Ahh. Bless.

I gotta admit, newkid's photo montages are a guilty pleasure of mine.

Pretty cool mate, and don't mind if I do, but I must say that your wife is quite attractive....as a matter of fact, I'm having untoward thoughts as I type this.

Long life and happiness to you both!

Do you think I’m someone else from some other place?

Just a bit concerned at what that is stuffed in the pigs mouth......

I get mine from Levi's in Aeon. They're expensive but they fit and last.

Are you talking about the Soriya shop on the 5th(?) floor where they sold clothes and sports gear? I hope not.
