A Wedding
« on: December 02, 2021, 02:29:33 PM »
Rare to see a wedding of an older couple.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXiu21hUcKw&ab_channel=KuNouEntertainment

I wonder if this is a second marriage or first?...

I almost know these people. In fact, I know almost all of them. :2funny: :2funny:

But rare? How can it be rare for people their ages? They don't look that old yet. If it's a couple in their 60s or 70s, I'd say rare. But this? Not rare at all.

I have a feeling my path crosses w/ them before especially the groom but where, can't remember....Hm mm..

Do you know if this is a first or second marriage for the couple?  J/w..

Can't be the first.

I was implying "rare" as in a wedding like theirs. Hope that makes better sense of what I'm trying to say.

This is an American-styled wedding.

Many Hmong are doing that now. The first couple to ever do that in Minnesota were a Yang chick and Hang dude. I was running a TV show at that time and my crew filmed it.

I don't know if it's the first or second for the guy but it's the second for the woman.

True, but rare to see it from older couple like this one and especially in 2nd marriages.

They aren't old at all. They are  in their 40s during this wedding.

I think the fairy tale couples are at an age where they rely only on family donations. They wouldn't and couldn't have a proper American wedding yet.

I don't see this as strange at all for the couple in the video. They are just at the right age for it.

Nothing rare about it. That’s the norm for American or Asian wedding.

Yep, folks are waiting longer to get married now so not that "rare" from what I've seen too.

Take Reporter for example, we still don't know if he'll ever want to get married.. ;D

But like I've said many times, as long as Reporter is happy, he can live his life however he sees fit... O0

Lol.

I don't have much faith in marriages these days. To have me committed, she had better be deadly serious...not just till death do us part but "we'll never part in life and death."

Yep, folks are waiting longer to get married now so not that "rare" from what I've seen too.

It has already been. Lol

She doesn't have to be perfect. I don't know of any human that's perfect. So, if I'm going to marry a human, I know I'll have to accept imperfection.

But she doesn't have to be Hmong. She can be of any other culture out there.

He’s looking for a perfect one and it’s going to be a long road for him lol
