Wedding planning is never easy. Trying to ensure your culture is represented is even more difficult. As in so many things, the key is to plan carefully in advance.
Venue
Country or city? Large-scale or small and intimate? What about your budget? Can you make adjustments to your needs? These are just some questions to ask when choosing a venue. An Asian wedding marquee of the kind available at https://goodintents.co.uk/wedding-marquee-hire/asian-weddings/ is one possible approach.
Staff
The people who work at the venue, any external staff you bring in such as caterers and even the photography team – they all need to have relevant skills and experience to understand what you need from your Asian-style wedding.
Decoration
You want to incorporate some traditional Asian elements but also ensure the wedding has a modern feeling. This means thinking about the colours, patterns, lighting, flowers and every other aspect of the venue’s appearance.
Food
Food is one of the most important parts of a wedding and is an ideal way to create a fusion of Asian and Western influences with a diverse menu. Keep things surprising, but be aware of all your guests’ dietary requirements.
Entertainment
This is a chance to fuse cultures by combining modern features such as silent discos and interactive food stations with traditional music and dance. Make sure you have moments of high energy and moments when you can slow down and take a breath.
Planning your Asian-style wedding may be challenging, but it is the first step to ensuring that your day meets all your hopes and dreams.
