After around almost 2 hours, when the day was getting dark, the dinner started at the third venue after another 30 minutes driving. Because it is a big party, more than 80 people, the seating were already and guests easily found their seats by finding their names on the table. The newly weds sat with their witnesses and several family members, in the centre of the room. The meal was progressed from the starter, the main dish to the dessert. Between each course, DJ organized a set of programs for guests, including newly weds show and various types of dancing. The most traditional program is “the first dance”. Dancing is a main program in the wedding, and newly weds first started dancing to open the dancing night at the party and then guests joined in. Dancing often starts from Waltz. After that, the music passed to Rock, Salsa, Disco and even Tango, the favourites of young people. Luckily dance is still in my legs after several years since I attended the dancing competition, I got through the party night. Cutting the wedding cake is another traditional program. The newly weds cut the cake first and then guests were invited to share it. A traditional French wedding cake is Piece Montee, but nowadays people are free to choose a cake they like, eg. in the party, the cakes were chocolate ones.
The newly weds are full of romantic spirit. Every detail in the wedding was paid attention, from small programs, eg. breaking champaign glass at each venue, wedding colors...... to the groom's tie knot. The pity is that I could not take all into my camera. Hope these pictures here could extend your imagination.
The time when I got out of the party is already 4am. Exhausted!
