Let's say you're about to get married. Do you want your wedding ceremony to be held in the traditional way, where the couple are supposed to clad in traditional wedding attire, or in the modern way, where Western wedding costumes are preferred?

Can I have both cultures combined? Let say the couples are dressed up in traditional Chinese wedding costumes, but the ceremony take place in a westernized occasion such as a palaxial hotel or a gorgeous restaurant.
I've thought of that too. I'll have it separated, which will take up 2 days to complete 1 wedding ceremony. The first day is the traditional way, the second day is the modern way. How about that?

Girls, girls, girls! Girls just love to look beautiful and elegant, especially during the most important time in their lifetime --- nuptial day. Most modern-day girls feel extremely glad and proud of themselves when they are clad in silky Western wedding gowns. But traditional wedding costumes can emanate a different sense of beauty too, such as the Chinese Qipao (Cheongsam), Indian Sari and the Japanese Kimono, especially those which are modernized to suit today's women's taste.

Trying different types of traditonal wedding customes is gorgeous, don't you think so. And maybe this is the only chance to try on the tradtional customes in your lifetime cause it's hard to find or to buy this kind of customes
Every ethnic race in this world has its own traditional costume. Traditional costumes represent one race's culture and heritage. We shouldn't forget our roots, therefore we must respect and honour our traditional costumes.

Good. If we totally remove our traditions and invent the new ones to replace them, then we are causing a big humiliation and disrespect to our cultures and ancestors. If we are only modernizing the traditions by maintaining some of the age-old practices, then this is acceptable and decent. As we are moving into a new century, we must certainly embellish some traditions with modern cultures so that they will be suitable to be practised and will not seem to be an anachronism.
