One of the reasons we decided to spend two weeks in Perth was to attend the wedding of my niece, Yvonne.
The wedding preparation started the night before with the hair combing ceremony for the bride, a tradition not practiced by family and which I first came to know in 2007 during Eva's wedding (Read here).
Of course, tea ceremony is now standard practice adopted by all who professed to be Chinese. It is a good time for the couple to get to know the rest of the larger family and to collect some angpow!

Immediately after the short ceremony was over in Lamont, the scramble for ice lolly turned out to be great fun for kids and adults.
