There are already a million details on the wedding planning to do list and now we have this extra thing. What do I need to prepare for the tea ceremony?

Your mother just asked you...

Or, you might be the bride that has some idea of what a tea ceremony includes. Having seen a tea ceremony in action as a bridesmaids or from the random Chinese dramas that you passed by in the living room. Having grown up with Chinese parents, you know this tradition is sometimes desired by parents at weddings, and you want to make sure you have all the information you need to include one for your own wedding – so that it is proper, your parents will be happy, and it will fit in with the rest of your wedding. 

Over the years, as wedding planners we have heard different variations of brides and their parent’s requests for a wedding tea ceremony. We realized that it was very difficult to find practical and detailed information about wedding tea ceremony in English in consolidated form. 


Over 75% of the brides we surveyed, felt there was not adequate information online regarding wedding tea ceremony. 

This course was created for brides so that you can find all the information you need in one place – so that you are ready for your wedding tea ceremony.
