hot for real. Okay. Anyway, now let me

men. And over here we have the speakers
because there's going to be music in an
hour or two. There's going to be a

they are going to pick me up from here
and bring me to the wedding location.
Normally this should be my parents house

mi away so we're using this place
instead cuz it's cute. This is my
mother's dress that's matching with AC's

did bust her ankle, so she is not going
to be running around all day long. And
these are the dresses we made for the
bridesmaids and the cousins. Made with
this cloth that we got at the market.
And let me show you guys what's going on

these little flower thingies. And we'll
have two friends on both sides. They're

bedroom. And everyone is out in the
hallway except for me and some of the
ladies. Theoretically, men aren't
supposed to be in the room, but we need
a photographer, so they're in here, too.
And Sophia and Haley are waiting here
for their very important task. So, we
have two sets of flowers here. And these

entrance. Everyone's already here. We're
the last ones to arrive. They're saying
we can't get out yet. We have to just
like let the excitement build in the
yard. They're starting to gather. We're
shutting the windows for maximum mysteriousness.
[Music]
Queen. This is the table of honor. Here
are the two mothers. She's technically
supposed to be on his side, but they're
matching, so we just could not split
them up, so they're together. The food
is coming out soon. They just gave us
our appetizer. It is cold noodles with
chickpeas and a spicy sauce. Everyone is
having a super early dinner or super
late lunch, however you want to call
guests. And there are more tables over
here. How's the food? Is everything
okay? It's amazing.
Excellent. Excellent. You should rest.
You should go back and rest. I can't

How's the food, my deers? Is it okay?
One wedding custom that remains the same
no matter where you are in China is
giving the bride and groom money in
place of wedding gifts because weddings
are so expensive. But here there is one
little difference which is that they
don't give the money in a red envelope.
Instead they hand it to you while you're
dancing. I didn't know this was going to
happen, so I didn't have a moneyholding
receptacle and had to cram it all in my sleeve.

All right, my lovely guests from the US
and from Zimbabwe. From Zimbabwe. How
was your Weaguer wedding experience? Oh,
it was so good. It was great. I love the
procession through the streets with the
little dances. That was great. The we
did was very fun. Even though I had no
idea what we were doing beforehand. And
Mark got a pair of socks. Hey, nice,
nice, nice.
What? He got socks.
Mili, you're too slow. Well, I enjoyed
every bit of it. Excellent. Excellent.
Well, I'm glad you guys liked it. I'm
sorry about the noise. I asked three
times today as well. I was like, "Turn
it down, please." And they're like,
"It's already so quiet. Are you kidding
me?" Yeah, I had earplugs. He had
earplugs. She had earplugs. No, I
didn't. Actually, I don't wear my ears.
Mila doesn't need earplugs.
I can hear a sound, a very weird one. I
can't hear.
The wedding has concluded. Say goodbye.
Say goodbye. Thanks for watching
everyone. We're glad you could join us
for this beautiful celebration that
brought together two families from two
completely opposite sides of the earth,
as well as lots of friends from four
different continents. Stay tuned for a
chat with my parents about their
experience living in rural Qashqar, our
family trip to Tashkan, bringing my
friends and family to our home in Baang,
and starting in about a month, our
biggest bike tour yet. Yes, I am very
lucky to have married someone who shares
my passion for biking and exploring. And
this is going to be our last really big
crazy adventure before settling down and
having kids. So, make sure to subscribe
so you don't miss out on more updates
about life in rural China from the
farthest west to the farthest east to
all the places in between. See you guys next
