I got married on January 14th to my girlfriend of 5 years. She is Cambodian so we had a traditional Cambodian wedding which lasted two days. The actual wedding ceremonies took all of the first day, while the second was full of partying, including the reception. Our videographers sent us a highlight video which I've uploaded to YouTube here. Check it out and converse. I get a little choked up every time I watch it

I guess I was the first one to watch it... View = 1

That was pretty cool

Nice cake!

one ceremony or two? One of my friend's sisters married a guy from Thailand and they had one there and one here.

Nice! Congrats. Being married is pretty good (so far, anyway), I hope you enjoy it.

So will you be taking a...holiday...in Cambodia?

Congrats. Cool wedding. Also, you look like SiliconC, except nicer.

Seriously though, that is a bad ass wedding man. Looks like it was a lot of fun. Is that a guy trying to cut and comb your non-existent hair at 0:53?

Well he wont forget to pack a wife, evidently he's got that part down.


Also -- Congrats! The video was done very nicely. She's quite a looker, don't let her go! Best wishes to you both.

You're married? My congratulations and condolences

Thanks guys. The wedding was a lot of fun, but it was also extremely hectic. There were multiple ceremonies and multiple changes of outfits throughout both days.

Yes, that man was "cutting" my hair. It's a hair-cutting or a cleansing ceremony. There were many jokes passed around about what exactly that would consist of for me. I suggested cutting my chest hair.

We did one ceremony as that was expensive enough. In total we spent about $30k on this wedding, with the food being about half of that. A ten course meal for 350 adds up quick. Luckily we got all of it back in wedding gifts, since Cambodians give money instead of presents.

Congratulations! You can probably look forward to awesome food for life!(unless she can't cook... And you also can't cook... Then not so much.)
Video looked pretty awesome.
