Today there were two weddings outside my window, the first I missed most of because of housekeeping. By the time I got back, the wedding party were still taking photos and I thought to myself, perhaps they paid more because they were there for several hours and during the photo session, the hotel staff was not in a hurry to dismantle everything. After the photos ended, the hotel staff removed the gold covers off the chairs, leaving silver covers. This means there would be a 2nd wedding later in the day! They had covered the chairs twice in the morning so as to not have to set up again for the 2nd wedding. I love it!
Here is the precise detail of today's 2nd wedding:
5:00pm - groomsman spread flower petals for bride to walk on
5:10pm - wedding procession song (the only song of the entire ceremony)
best man and maid-of-honor give speech, all other bride maids and groomsmen stand behind the audience
5:14pm - vows and rings exchanged, kiss
5:18pm - sit and sign document, kiss again
5:24pm - champagne toast
5:27pm - wedding ceremony is over, guests standing to enter reception
5:33pm - photos continue while hotel staff remove silver chair covers and stack chairs
5:39pm - it's getting dark, entire wedding party appears to have moved indoors
My thoughts are, you really don't want to be late to a wedding in Hong Kong!
