Blending Cultures

This wedding we planned in Hong Kong was a beautiful blend of cultures with a Chinese Bride and a Kenyan Groom.  One of the Bride’s best friends from college designed the letterpress invitations, guestbook and thank you cards.  The folded invitation was worded in both English and Chinese.

Using words from I Corinthians 13:1-13, she created the Chinese word “double happiness” in letterpress for the guestbook and thank you cards.  The “double happiness” motif is often found as a decorative element in Chinese weddings.  I love the blend of languages in these creative ways by Dodol & Tamago.
