Melanie and David’s Paebaek ceremony (3/3) 🤍

To top it all off, the groom gives the bride a piggyback ride around the room. A symbolic promise to carry her for the rest of their lives (again, no pressure).

Melanie and David’s Paebaek ceremony (2/3) 🤍

The fun begins when the parents and elders toss jujubes and chestnuts into a cloth the couple holds open. The number caught is said to predict how many kids they’ll have - jujubes for daughters, chestnuts for boys (no pressure).

Melanie and David’s Paebaek ceremony 🤍

A Paebaek is a traditional Korean wedding ceremony that’s not only deeply respectful but also such a good time. It honors the groom’s family and symbolizes the joining of two families in an intimate setting. The couple does deep bows to their parents and elders, showing profound respect and gratitude. (1/3)
