The Legin restaurant off of Division and 82nd in SE Portland was packed last Saturday, March 28th. with guests who helped celebrate the union of John and Helen. Mien weddings have evolved and come a long way in terms of ceremonial practices. Where traditional Mien weddings used to be a 3 to 4 day event (including preparations), a half day of festivities with a mix of abbreviated traditional customs and some adopted western culture is enough to complete a Mien wedding nowadays.
It was a pretty busy day for me but I still had fun seeing everyone enjoy themselves, especially the bride and groom. Congratulations to John & Helen!
Here are some pictures that I took at the wedding.
