If there are little members in your bridal party that are much too young to walk down the aisle, consider one of the latest trends in weddings. Many brides are embracing the idea of incorporating a wagon in their wedding ceremony. The smallest members of your bridal party can ride in a decorated wedding wagon and be pulled by the flower girl down the aisle. Some brides even request that their pet ride in a wedding wagon. Give a wedding wagon a personal touch by using the colors and themes used in your wedding.

The three days represent the three jewels of Buddhism: Buddha, Sangha (brotherhood of monks), and Dhamma (teachings of Buddha). Modern Cambodian weddings will often condense these ceremonies into one day. Read on for helpful planning tips to help you incorporate these traditional elements into your approaching Cambodian wedding.
Request that Wedding Guests Do Not Give Gifts
Wedding gifts are traditional because in generations past, most people who were getting married were young and needed things to set up a household. But if you are more established and do not need things for your home, it might make more sense to request that guests do not bring gifts. Requesting no gifts is also a nice gesture for your friends and family members if you are throwing a destination wedding, as they will already be spending money on airfare, hotels and other expenses. Follow proper etiquette when you want to request that people refrain from giving gifts.
