Jessica and Ben’s wedding at Zen in Greenville was nothing short of magical! Zen’s sleek, modern vibe created the perfect setting for their celebration, blending traditions from their Chinese Tea Ceremony and an indoor American ceremony. The space was beautifully dressed with white drapes, while soft pink tablecloths added a romantic touch that flowed effortlessly throughout the day. The Chinese Tea Ceremony was such a heartfelt part of their wedding.
Three Facts About Chinese Tea Ceremonies
- Respect and Gratitude: The couple serves tea to their elders to show deep respect and appreciation. Jessica and Ben knelt before their parents and close family members, symbolizing the uniting of their families.
- Meaningful Ingredients: The tea often includes red dates and lotus seeds. Red dates symbolize good fortune, while lotus seeds represent fertility, wishing the couple happiness and a prosperous future.
- Blessings and Gifts: After serving the tea, the couple typically receives gifts or red envelopes from their elders. These tokens represent blessings and well-wishes for a long, happy marriage.
After the tea ceremony, Jessica and Ben’s American ceremony took place inside Zen’s tranquil space. With minimal decor and soft pink accents, the atmosphere felt cozy and personal. As they exchanged vows, surrounded by their closest loved ones, the love between them was palpable.
Zen’s modern elegance paired with the delicate color palette made this wedding unforgettable. Watching Jessica and Ben blend their families and cultures so seamlessly was something truly special!
