Chinese wedding

What an experience! Where to start? Ok, weddings are typically from 10.00 to 13.00. You meet at a good restaurant where tables are prepared for a pretty large group (200-300 people) with a stage in front. Everything is very professionally prepared. Large posters of the couple, good quality movies to introduce them etc. Soon the show - yes it's a show - starts. The master of ceremony guides thru 3 hours of speaches, rituals, several dress changes of the bride, the newly weds singing a song etc. Very entertaining - at least for them who don't have to perform...
Last but not least do not forget your "red enveloppe" with an even number (that the couple can share it) but not 4 (bad luck) of brand new bills in it.
