Gina's Wedding

Two weekends I spent my Saturday afternoon at a co-workers wedding. It was my first and quite possibly my only experience of a Korean Wedding. It was much different, much faster and in a style that most western folk would be insulted by. On the other hand it was quite nice and in Korean style. Quick and convenient. It was over in about 45 minutes then we proceeded to a restraunt across the street and there we ate and had no sign of the bride and groom until we left which is much expected.

In short, I left my place at 11:30. I arrived at the church by 12:45, took pictures, attended the wedding, ate lunch and was home by 4, might i add the 45 minute walk i took and the one hour train ride before and after. so all in all i spent a solid 2 hours for the wedding. Should Canada take a lesson? I think not.

I enjoyed myself and there is nothing like spring love to boost your spirits. Everything went well and the people looked beautiful. I had the chance to be in the biggest church in the word. Not as amazing as it sounds, sorry no pics. I think the biggest thing was seeing how under dressed everyone was for a wedding and how people chatted and walked in late throughout the entire ceremony. It seems, as I learn the culture, to do it quick and get back to work. I think I will have my wedding back home in Canada no matter who I marry from whatever country.
