Weddings celebrations vary from place to place. However, there is a clear difference between Viet Nam and Western wedding.

First and foremost, while the mainstream color of Western weddings is white, that of Vietnam is red. However, in modern days, lots of people prefer white dresses like Western brides.

Secondly, the celebration party in Viet Nam lasts for two days and the family will invite all the neighbors surrounding together with other relatives.

In the evening young people dance with loud dance music. On the contrary, people in Europe and America spend one day to celebrate the couples.

They also don't care about eating, they just have small meals with champagne or wine. During the weddings, light music will be played and sometimes they may have slight dancing.

Finally, people in Viet Nam send wishes to the couple with some money inside an envelope. Whereas, Western guests give them gifts or presents with wishes.

The world is changing and so is Viet Nam, Vietnamese now tend to simplify the customs but still maintain the culture values. One important thing to remember is: what should be eliminated and what must be kept to avoid losing the Vietnamese traditions.
