« 23 » Richard Mortimer and Eunice Foo's Civil Wedding
24th December 2006
A small ceremony was held to celebrate Richard and Eunices Civil Wedding in their backyard at Joondalup, followed by a Chinese Tea Ceremony later in the day. The tea ceremony is the traditional Chinese way of marriage, and the Bride and Groom will kneel before the parents and offer them special tea to gain acceptance in the family. This is followed by offering tea to the older siblings, then the younger siblings repeat the process to the newly weds, to accept their position in the heirarchy of the family. Later during the day they went to Burns Beach to have some photos taken by the Western Australian coastline. The majority of photos included in this set were taken by Leonard Foo, Eunice's brother, which follow the events of the day.
