Planning a Vietnamese Wedding at Mt Tamborine

Planning a wedding can be stressful at any time. Combining western wedding traditions and customs from another culture can be super difficult.  I have lots of experience helping people blend their Vietnamese wedding customs with traditional western style weddings.

I’m happy to work with interpreters and translators to ensure that all the marriage documents are completed correctly because my couples need to understand all of the paperwork. I also enjoy working with a translator during the ceremony to ensure that the guests understand and enjoy the wedding.

Saying vows in Vietnamese

Saying your vows in Vietnamese is fine. It’s perfectly legal as long as you have a competent interpreter. First they will translate the vows from English into Vietnamese. Next, they translate the vows you are making back into English for me as I don’t speak Vietnamese. Perhaps you and your partner might say the legal vow in English so that I can understand it and then make your personal vows to each other in Vietnamese.

Family at Vietnamese Weddings 

Family is very important in Vietnamese culture, and the elders of the bride and groom must be shown respect. Using an interpreter to translate the most important parts of the ceremony ensures that all family members can understand and enjoy your Vietnamese wedding at Mt Tamborine, even if they don’t speak English.
