Speaker 1 During my years as a visiting professor, I was once invited to my student’s wedding in Hoa Binh province. It was fabulous to see the guests in their traditional wedding clothes, and witness the different wedding customs. I don’t know the language, but I could say everyone was welcoming the bride into the new family and wishing the couple all the best. My student said that he had spent 3 years living with his fiancé’s family before getting the girl’s permission to marry her.

Speaker 2 It was so nice to be part of the ceremony. I was fascinated by all the singing throughout the day. All the exchanges between the two families, I mean the greetings, the good wishes, the teachings of the superiors, were inthe form of songs and chants. You could feel their joy and emotions through the music. I managed to make out the meanings of the lyrics thanks to the books and articles about traditional weddings I had read.

Speaker 3 That was the first time I had been to a wedding ceremony in Viet Nam. I was lucky enough to have a chance to see the bride receiving the water from a family member and pouring it into a container. It was so solemn. The bride looked gorgeous! I had watched a documentary about this practice. Well, it reminds the bride of her duties as a caretaker of her own family. Attending a traditional ceremony like that was something I had always wanted to do, but I didn’t manage it on my first trip to Viet Nam.
