新年快樂! ヾ(＠⌒ー⌒＠)ノ

Happy lunar new year everyone!

Yesterday my husband and I watched the Chinese new year's gala on CCTV, and on Saturday we made dumplings. ♪ I really enjoyed the new year's gala, especially the songs from Faye Wong and Leehom Wang!

I have no internet at tome right now, it really sucks... I hope I can blog again soon!

Baibai!

Our wedding in China ♡

Xin and I were in Taiyuan for about 3 weeks to visit his family and celebrate our wedding in his hometown.

We got married in Germany before, but we decided to have another wedding in China later, so his family can be there, too.

Our Chinese wedding was on December 31th 2011.

In the morning we got dressed. My mother-in-law and some other women from Xin's family helped me to put on my white wedding dress. When I was finished, Xin tried to open the door to take me outside, but the women wouldn't let him in and he had to beg for them to let him open the door. This is a Chinese tradition, which means that the women of my family (my family wasn't there, so his mom and aunt etc. did it) don't want him to take me away from them.

After he got in, he got on his knees in front of me and asked if I would come with him. I said yes and we walked out happily, where some people threw confetti for us.

Then someone drove us to the restaurant, which they put a huge inflatable archway in front of with our names on it. They also put up a big poster of Xin and me inside of the restaurant.

Xin and I had to wait in the hall to greet our 65 guests, chat with them and take photos.

After everyone was there, I had to changed my outfit to a red dress for eating.
Then we drank and ate with the guests.

Some of them even prepared a little game for Xin and me:
They held an apple on a thread and we both had to bite it with the hands on our back, so when we failed to bite it we would accidently kiss each other...

It was a beautiful wedding and I felt really happy that Xins family accepts me and treats me super nice!


Our wedding photos were taken by VSheying photography, who are specialized on K-dorama-inspired photo shoots. The photos turned out really beautiful! Here are some of my favourites:

I love the photos! And Xin looks so handsome he is totally stealing my thunder!

I want to lose weigh fast so we are equally pretty haha.

Now it kinda feels more like we are really officially married... do you understand what I mean?

Let's be happy together forever.
