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.

    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    You are the food,
    you are the tooth, you are the husband,
    light, light, sieving through the screen
    whereon I bounce my big body at you
    like shoes after a wedding car.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

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