WeddingBanNamLue1220.jpg

Ban Nam Lue, Luang Namtha, Laos

The man leading the grooms party entering the house at the start of the wedding ceremony in the grooms village. He's been carrying an umbrella with something attached to it over the entire period, but I haven't been able to work out the significance of that. I believe it may have been used during a short procession from the house where the bride rested before the wedding, and the main house, but unfortunately, I missed that. Because this was my first wedding, and I didn't know the script, e.g. what significant thing will happen where and when, I missed some details. A few more, and I'll eventually get it right.
