Double Your Happiness: 15 Ways to Add Asian Flair to Your Wedding

Congratulations, you’re getting hitched! And perhaps you'd like to add some Asian touches to your wedding. Here are some ways to celebrate Pearl River style. 

A Traditional Qipao

If you’re going traditional Chinese, you might be planning on multiple dress changes, and one of those dresses might be a qipao, also known as a cheongsam. Lucky red is the classic color

— although a peacock pattern is also perfectly lovely. 

A Cozy Shawl

Sure, that sleeveless qipao looks great, but it won’t necessarily keep you warm. Our pretty peacock velvet shawls to the rescue! Stay cozy with style.

Brocade Bags

Double Happiness Decor

No Chinese wedding would be complete without a shuang xi, or double happiness symbol. Light a double happiness candle with your betrothed as a symbol of your unity. Add a joyful-times-two cinnabar trivet to your tea ceremony, and deck your banquet tables with shuang xi napkins.

Folding Fans

A Birdcage for Hongbao

A bamboo bird cage

Moola in hongbao, or red envelopes, are often the gift of choice for Chinese weddings. What better way to stash the cash than with a decorative bamboo birdcage? After the wedding, take the birdcage home and add a touch of whimsy to your decor.

Origami Cranes

Throughout Asia, cranes are a symbol of longevity. In Japanese myth, they were thought to live for a 1,000 years, and that folding one thousand paper cranes, or senbazuru, would grant the folder one wish. Such a practice was picked up by Japanese Americans for their weddings, with the many origami cranes symbolizing a long-lasting marriage.

But if that much folding seems daunting, consider giving one crane each as a favor to your guests.

Chopsticks and Chopstick Holders
