Traditional Korean weddings are held in the bride's home.  The groom travels to the bride's home in a procession.

• The couple shares three spoonfuls of rice, which represents the meals they will share for the rest of their lives.  They pour a Korean liquor made of rice into two cups which have been made from the same gourd.  This symbolizes the union of their souls.


• Ducks and geese are very important in the Korean wedding ceremony and may be incorporated in.  Ducks and geese mate for life, symbolizing faithfulness.


• The bride wears a chogori, which is a short, long-sleeved jacket and a chima, which is a full length, wrap-around skirt.  She may wear a white sash decorated with flowers or symbols of significance to the bride, as well as  a crown or headpiece.
