Wordless Wednesday 007: A traditional Khmer wedding
Posted by Sreisaat on November 04, 2009 @ Inside CambodiaThis is the wedding ceremony of my landlord's daughter. A traditional Khmer wedding ceremony is usually done over a 3day period. Nowadays, however, the ceremony is cut down to two days. Despite the shortened ceremony, it still is rife with rituals, elaborate costume changes not only of the bride but also of the groom and their attendants, and relatives, as well as the festive atmosphere and sumptuous feasts.

Here comes... Khmer Iggy and the bride
Posted by Sreisaat on November 04, 2009 @ Postcards from Miss Igorota!Oh, and the sister of the bride, too!Traditionally, Khmer weddings last for three days and are done at the bride's home. Nowadays, the ceremony is shortened to only one day. Our landlord's daughter's wedding, however, was held for two days (may kaya sila). Despite the shortened ceremony, it is still rife with elaborate rituals, costume changes (not only of the bride but also of the groom, their attendants, and their parents), and not to forget the food and merry-making!

God bless you and your family.
except for the unusual height of the palm trees, this looks just like a ricefield scene harvested from our very own capiz! :)
I work on a Travel Channel food show and we're doing a show in Cambodia next month. We're looking for some local foodies to be on camera guides or to give any story suggestions. I was hoping to ask you a few questions, if you're interested. Please let me know ~ Sarah sarah@tremendousinc.com
Sarah, I'll try to help you, so send me the questions through my email - sreisaat-at-yahoo.com

The Pope, maraming salamat sa pag=add mo sa blog ng sister ko. She could not update her blog yet kasi may in-country training pa siya sa Nairobi.
Lui, this is my Cambodia! hahaha. Inangkin ba! But really, totoo, napaka=photogenic nga ng countryside :) Did you go to Sihanoukville last week? Inggit me.
yep. went to sihanoukville. didn't enjoy it much dami tao as usual. but still Chinkee enjoyed it so it was worth it. went to a pagoda a little far off on the way to Siem Reap last monday too.. grabe ang ganda talaga ng countryside. And it makes me miss Bicol so so much
