Is it a "requirement" to have a wedding dinner? my fiance and i are thinking of just inviting our guests to our rom and then leave it at that..like a simple rom/wedding lunch.. cuz we are gg overseas and holding a wedding dinner 3 years later seems a little unnecessary.. what are the traditions related to this? we both are not religious nor traditional, but my family is. any suggestions?
No wedding dinner?

Wob8ly> We did not have a wedding dinner. Our ROM & AD is about 1 year apart. ROM only for immediate family which is like 1 pvt room with abt 20pax (2 tables of sit down lunch). AD we have picking up of bride & tea-serving than relative have their lunch buffet at parents place.

Wob8ly> Yes you can do the ROM and AD like picking up the brides all in one day so save the trouble to do it in 2 days.... its depends what you and your partner like.
But do disccus this with both sides parents cause something they may not like the idea.
For us, we dun fancy the dinner part so no go for us so we decided to keep the picking up of bride, tea-serving and guo da li still... just a no dinner event
to return something to the parents... at least to keep them happy...
