Marriage in South Korea - Modern Style Wedding Ceremonies

Modern Style Wedding Ceremonies

In larger cities, luxury hotels will have 'wedding halls' or ballrooms used specifically for wedding ceremonies. These rooms are decorated with a wedding motif and are rented to couples. Other wedding halls are independent facilities that can accommodate several different weddings at once.

Today, many couples will initially have a more 'Westernized' ceremony with tuxedo attire and white wedding gown, then proceed with a smaller-scale, traditional Korean wedding after the main ceremony.

Famous quotes containing the words modern, style, wedding and/or ceremonies:

    In most modern instances, interpretation amounts to the philistine refusal to leave the work of art alone. Real art has the capacity to make us nervous. By reducing the work of art to its content and then interpreting that, one tames the work of art. Interpretation makes art manageable, conformable.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    His style is chaos illumined by flashes of lightning. As a writer he has mastered everything except language.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    Come away!
    For you shall hence upon your wedding day.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Society is frivolous, and shreds its day into scraps, its conversation into ceremonies and escapes.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
