Andy and Flora's wedding day











There are so many great traditions that are unique to Chinese weddings, one is where the groom has to go through a set of crazy tasks to win the hand of the bride on the morning of the wedding. First he must bater or pay his way in to the house of the bride and then the bridesmaids set him a series of challenges. Andy's first task was to eat raw onions, wipe his face in vasoline and then rub his face in cotton wool as you would expect the result was hilarious. He also did something sweet to win the bride which was quite touching and made Flora feel really special. Together with the groomsmen he sang her favourite song with accompanying guitar and piano.
Their day did start quite early and the photo shoot was taken before the ceremony which was held at Little Bay, we travelled to Watsons bay and to Darling point with out any trouble because of the Sydney running festival and their reception was held at the Stanford Hotel at Mascot.
