January 02, 2010: Duyen and Dat's Engagement Ceremony.
Happy New Year, everyone!
Duyen and Dat were engaged today. This was their engagement ceremony. The Vietnamese Culture has a tradition where the groom's family travels to the bride's family bearing gifts and offerings to the Bride's family in hopes that they will accept the Groom's offerings and accept his hand in marriage. This is only tradition of course since these two knew long before this ceremony took place that they would be getting engaged. It's sort of like a miniature wedding... A preview of things to come when the real wedding comes along.
