Crazy Huge Rural Chinese Wedding Banquet – chinaSMACK - digg china

Pictures of a recent and huge wedding banquet from the Shunde district of Foshan city in the Guangdong province were posted all over the internet. Traditional rural wedding banquet celebrations in China often last three days and three nights. The host treats their invited guests to three meals each day and a total of nine meals.

Imagine doing this nine times.

Some KDS Forum replies:

“Chinese rural folk are forever foolish . A Lot of show up front, a lot of debt after .”

“This wedding must be for the children of government official. Ordinary common people could not be so ostentatious.”
