Customary Engagement Etiquette in Indonesia An Indonesian engagement could easily last for many years. During this time, ceremonial gift giving takes place between the bride and groom's families to strengthen their familiarity. Indonesian Wedding Ceremony An Indonesian wedding program is a very important event. Everyone that is even slightly acquainted with the bride and groom may be invited, and this could mean thousands of guests. The majority of invited guests do not attend the actual ceremony, but it is considered rude to be invited to the wedding reception, to share in the joy of the newlyweds, and to not attend. Wedding Reception Celebration There is often an elaborate processional into the reception site, which consists of a long chain of flowers. Professional dancers perform traditional Indonesian dances, while family and guests await the arrival of the newlyweds. It is customary for the traditional Indonesian bride and groom to greet each guest in a long receiving line, before the reception festivities can begin. [ Back to "Wedding Traditions" page ] |
