Q Events in Melbourne invites couples from diverse backgrounds to celebrate their love with unique wedding traditions. Enjoy our favourite experiences showcasing a rich tapestry of cherished customs passed down through generations.
An Indian Celebration of Colours and Rituals
Experience the rich cultural traditions of an Indian wedding, with vibrant colours, fragrant flowers, and rhythmic music filling the air. Witness the bride’s radiant beauty in her embroidered saree as the couple exchange vows, encircling a sacred fire. Each ritual adds to the celebration’s cultural richness, from the intricate Mehendi ceremony to the joyful Sangeet.
The Elegance of a Japanese Wedding
After the lively energy of an Indian wedding, comes the tranquil beauty of a Japanese wedding. The simple and refined setting reflects Japanese culture. The bride and groom don traditional kimonos and take part in the San-San-Kudo ceremony. They share sake from three cups as a symbol of their union and joining of their families. The tea ceremony, where they share a cup of tea, represents their first act of hospitality as a married couple. Each element is carefully planned to create a peaceful, meaningful experience.
A Joyful Vietnamese Union
A Vietnamese wedding begins with the groom giving the bride gifts at home. Both wear traditional áo dài clothes. The ceremony includes honouring ancestors and exchanging vows and rings. The reception is full of tasty Vietnamese food, lots of cognac, and lively dancing.
A Traditional Scottish Affair
Leaving the vibrant streets of Vietnam, you arrive in the highlands of Scotland, where a traditional Scottish wedding is in full swing. A Scottish wedding takes place in the highlands, with a groom in a tartan kilt and playing bagpipes. The couple participates in a Handfasting ritual and celebrates with traditional Scottish dancing, food, and whisky in a grand castle.
A Joyous Nigerian Celebration
As you continue your journey, you find yourself amidst the vibrant and lively celebration of a Nigerian wedding. You witness a lively Nigerian wedding where the bride wears a colourful head wrap (gele) and traditional attire (iro & buba), and the groom wears an agbada. The couple follows their customs while mixing in modern practices. Guests celebrate with drumming, dancing, and traditional food. In the money dance, guests shower the couple with money for good fortune.
A Romantic Italian Festa
Finally, you reach the scenic Italian countryside for a beautiful Italian wedding. The ceremony is held in a historic church, with the bride in a white gown and a string quartet playing. The vows are exchanged, followed by a celebration at a charming villa where guests enjoy Italian cuisine and fine wines. The evening concludes with cutting a multi-tiered wedding cake and dancing under the stars.
