Another Chinese-Japanese Marriage

Saturday night we went to a wedding reception for a couple who, just like us, consists of a Japanese American girl and Chinese American guy. We were noting how this combo seems very common these days. Anyway, they had Chinese lion dancers at the start of the reception and the bride changed into a kimono.


I like creative attention to detail: tangerine place card holders that said what table we were at.

I couldn't get a picture of the bride and groom together.

There were some "small world" connections too. Someone D knew from Sacramento recognized him from 16 years ago, so that was kind of funny. My second cousin on my Dad's side was there because he knows the groom. Plus there were relatives from my mom's side as well.

We were pretty tired and had to pick up the kids, so we left before my favorite part of receptions, the slide show. (We didn't even make it to the ceremony since my parents couldn't watch the kids as they were at the ceremony). We had a good time, though, it was like our "date night", and we wish all of the best to the new couple.
