Thailand Weddings Are Wild - Bed Ceremony And 1,350,000 Dowry!

- I finally got to experience a traditional Thai wedding today. I gotta tell you, Thailand weddings are wild, this one had a bed ceremony and even a 1,350,000 dowry! The day started off at 6:39 in the morning (9 is considered a lucky number). I take you through all the morning ceremonies, including a very interesting bed ceremony and the handing over of a 1,350,000 dowry to the bride's parents. With over 500 people in attendance, this was a huge wedding. Many of the ceremonies were truly romantic and wild to me. I have never seen such a unique wedding in my life, and I am so thankful I got to be part of this amazing life event for these two beautiful people. Every part of this wedding was so interesting and I am so excited to share a rare glimpse into a traditional Thai wedding. The evening ceremony was a huge party. So many people, so much food, so much music. What a fantastic event!

I have never seen such a big Thai wedding like this one before. They must be so rich to organize a wedding like this one! The couple are so fabulous.
I’ve never been to a Thai wedding, so I did not know what to expect. Even by Western standards, this was a very large wedding.
In fact, there is a much bigger wedding than this. In the middle class at Mueang Luang Thai people attach great importance to ceremonies.
This brings me back to when my wife and I got married in Nonthabury almost ten years ago. Nearly 300 "strangers" were there to help us celebrate (along with just one other farang!). It was truly one of many "National Geographic moments" I've been involved in, since discovering the Kingdom. Lucky for us - my wife's mother returned half of the sinsod! Thanks again, Serg - for another awesome video!
I’m so happy that this video brought you back memories. Sounds like you had an amazing wedding.
@@LifewithSerg The guests still talk about the fact that we had draft beer (not bottled) and Regency whiskey at the reception! 🙂
I returned all of Sin Sod to my daughter for celebrating them to make a new family.
😏😏😏
My mom returned all Sin-Sod to my husband as well,this money as a beginning of our marriage life.we have a happy 18 years and I lost him in 2021.lucky me to meet him and he also wrote his goodbyes letter,thanks me how greatful he marry me .
😊😊😊เป็นคลิปที่ดีอีกชุดหนึ่งที่คุณได้เห็น วัฒนธรรมการแต่งงานของคนไทย😊😊❤❤
I really had a wonderful time
Authentic Thai culture...has been passed down since ancient times...has a unique identity.
Yes it’s awesome.
@@LifewithSerg
คุณลองไปถ่ายทำงานแต่งแบบบ้าน ๆ ดูสิคะ เงินสินสอดอาจจะไม่มาก แต่ความสุข ความสนุกอลังการค่ะ
(พิธีแต่งงานของไทย มีแตกต่างกันไปแต่ละภาคค่ะ สวยงามตามประเพณีของแต่ละท้องถิ่นค่ะ
I'm from Bangkok. My girlfriend is from Suphanburi. We also had a wedding ceremony like this at the bride's house. Your video reminds me of my wedding day with her.
I’m glad it brought back some good memories!
500 people to join this wedding ceremony is huge for up country province like U-tai tani.
Yeah, this wedding was really gigantic. This is my first Thai wedding, so I really had no idea what to expect.
I know they take marriage seriously there. Love the traditional weddings 💒
This was an amazing experience
Marriage ceremony in Thailand 🇹🇭 is the event for both side of the family...start from early morning till late evening...a tiresome affair for the newly wed... glad Serg has been invited to attend & witness the entire proceedings and truly an eye-opener for most of us...thanks for sharing this vblog...🎉😂
Oh, yes! Both of them had completely passed out between the ceremony, and then the evening session. I think at the end of the night, they probably just fell asleep.
แต่งงานแบบไทยแค่วันเดียวค่ะถ้าคุณเจอแบบอินเดียคุณจะว้าวมากจัดกันเกิน3วัน😂❤
❤️🌺😘🥰คนไทยยินดีต้อนรับ คนไทยเป็นมิตร ประเพณีแต่งงานคนไทย
Thank you
I had only 450 quest in my wedding.😊 My beautiful wife and I have been married for 6 years. We are in the fifthies and enjoy life together every day. Thak you for this wonderful video
I wish you many more years of happy marriage! Glad you enjoyed this video. 😊
I am Thai but have never been to a Thai wedding before. Thanks for taking us along
This was a wonderful experience. Happy to be able to share it with you all.
For my wedding, there were 3 different ways in one day.
At the monk hospital : With Thai ceremony, the monks prayed for us best luck and we offered food to the monks and donated money to the sicked monks.
The close family and friends blessed us with holy water.
At home : Chinese style ; offered tea to my parents and family to get their consent and get the Red envelopes with money as gifts. After that had a small family party.
At the restaurant later in the evening : Wedding party.
Result ; Almost break down late at night.🤣
Oh yes, that sounds like a very long day. The groom and bride at this wedding were so very tired.
งานคนมีตัง งานใหญ่มากๆ
This was an amazing experience
Love the content. Very interesting to see a traditional Thai wedding.
It was such a pleasure to be able to attend and share with you all.
I’ve been to quite a few weddings here and there are different traditions in different areas. The families must be very well to do though.
This is my first one, so I didn’t really know what to expect
Beautiful thank you!
Glad you like it! Was so much fun.
So happy
It was great.
I like that though it is a wealthy wedding, it is in a humble outdoor grounded land. Great smiles all around. 🙏🏻
It was a really lovely event.
Amazing video , this is so cool to see 👍
Thanks I loved this experience.
love the morning ceremony in Thai weddings that they invited monks offered foods to monks then they will get blessed. thank for sharing this lovely weddings.
Glad you enjoyed it, this was a great experience for me
Very cool video Serg! It’s neat that you are able to create some very unique videos 👍
This was such an amazing experience.
I love it. you always show real Thai local culture!!!
This was an amazing experience. Glad you enjoyed it.
what a wonderful wedding and how wonderfully it has been captured. All the best kang and ming!!!
Glad you enjoyed it.
Such an amazing beautiful video, very well done, thank you Serg for capturing and sharing all that, hope you have a great weekend 👍
This was such an honor to be able to witness this. I’m very happy that you enjoyed it.
This was great, Serg! Appreciate the family giving us a look.
So happy to share with you all.
Wow all day event thank you for sharing I was unaware
Yes it was amazing. Glad yon enjoyed it.
Great video, Serg! Best wishes to the bride and groom!
Such a wonderful experience for me. Happy to share.
Oh you were back in Uthai Thani again, nice! Great vlog Serg.
It was such a wonderful experience. I’m so grateful that they’ve invited me to two of their families life events.
Beautiful vlog Serg an insight of the customs during a wedding in Thailand. Keep up the good work Khun Serg
This was such an amazing experience
very interesting. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Khun Serg got married ❤Congratulations 😂🎉
Nooooooooo… LOL
Haha@@LifewithSerg
การเเต่งงานเป็นสิ่งหนึ่งในชีวิตที่ฉันไม่ได้ทำ
เเต่ เพราะฉันรักชีวิตโสด เเละขออวยพรให้คู่รักด้วยครับ
You never know! Maybe you’ll find somebody.
@@LifewithSerg I don't think so. I'm 48 years old.
I've had many girlfriends and am bored.
I'm happier with my free life haha.
These are a local, countryside style of marriage. I had gone to my cousin wedding and it kinda like this too, but not this extravagance.
Normally they tend to do very simple in countryside lower class, very big in countryside middle class, simple and small in Bangkok middle class because no one got time to do it that big, or go super extra if you are in Bangkok and got shit load of money.
10:09 about the money, yes, in the past they really give all of it to the bride side, because of "woman do housework and taking care of child" smth like that. But now it is kind of show off to the people in the wedding that the groom can taking care of the bride.
Sometime if you are not wealth as fuck and really want to show off, you just borrow some gold and money from someone to place there for the photo. But if you didn't care that much, you can use your real money, show it off nicely, give them all to the bride family. Then usually they will give the new couple all the money to start a new live because now woman didn't just stay at home and do all the housework anymore.
11:18 Ring exchange is normal too, everyone does that, even back then 30-40 years ago afaik. Thai just mixing it all and come up with this, Buddhism thing+local ghost thing+Chinese style dinner, western style ring exchange/flower throwing/couple clothes, anything that you think it's nice.
Wow, thank you for sharing all of that information. I really appreciate it. This was such an interesting event for me to witness and be a part of.
Lovely wedding day
Yes it was a great experience.
Looking very sharp Serg 👌. That was so great to be invited and filming their big day. What a wedding it was and the dowry 🫣 OMG I like the who gets the knot get to control it 😂😂
There were so many interesting parts to this wedding. It was such a pleasure to get to experience this firsthand.
Beautiful traditional wedding❤
Yeah, it was great!
Wow soo cool i ❤ Nice video 👍👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Oh. This is cool video.❤❤❤❤❤
Glad yo enjoyed it!
Wonderful video
Many thanks!
That one was very interesting, it looks like a lot of expensive fun...
It was quite a wedding!
Thanks for opening my eyes, Serg! To be honest, I never saw any thing luxurious at the same time rustic as such before 😁
The amount of food for the celebration is ridiculous! OMG USD $38k dowry! I'm afraid the bride's family will have to help the groom pay for the food like 1/3 of it Haha.
It was an amazing event! I’m so grateful that I was invited to it
Welcome to Thailand 🇹🇭 ❤🎉😊
Thank you
such a cool video
This was a wonderful experience. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Congratulations
Thanks.
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
ชุดเจ้าสาวสวยมากค่ะ สไบสีขาวปักลายวิ๊บวั๊บ👰✨
Yes, I thought it was really a gorgeous wedding dress. Thank you for your support.
You did such a beautiful job with this video. The closing shot in particular was very beautiful. I doubt the photographers covered this as well as you did. Really nicely done and I TOLD YOU ABOUT THE BED THING!!! haha. I always try to tell white guys here, Sinsot is not just for us. It's for Thai guys too and 1mn baht is no joke. But when you have families that are really educated and amazing like this it's certainly fitting. Nicely done!
You were right about the bed!
♥️Amazing ♥️
🇹🇭
♥️🤍💙🤍♥️
❤ขอบคุณ❤
Thank you for watching
It was magnificent and wonderful weddings 😊 ever ❤️ brother nice video bro. May have a great life 🙏 forever.
Thank you so much 😀
good stuff
Amazing experience
I enjoy in this video
Great happy to know that.
Great wedding ceremony it is similar to Cambodian wedding too❤
Oh interesting.
Fantastic video Serg, it brought back memories of my marriage with my Thai wife.... Not sure if that's good thing or not lol.
I guarantee the whole wedding was choreographed as mine was but to the viewer it just looks like a well oiled machine.
Nice one matey.
I had such a great time at this wedding. It was unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. Glad you enjoyed it Mark!
nice wedding
Yes it was really cool.
Minutes 13:08 President of the wedding ceremony This time it is (Woman in green suit) Mananya Thaiset, former Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Cooperatives Younger sister of Mr. Chada Thaiset, who currently holds the position. Deputy Minister of Interior and is the godfather of Uthai Thani city This wedding is truly extraordinary.
You certainly know more about this than I do. Thank you for sharing that!
It's a Thai tradition that men need to be a monk before they get married. It's great that you can see both ceremonies.
Oh yes. I am very grateful I was invited to both.
Very cool. I got married in Suphan Buri and it was very much a traditional Thai-style wedding. Thailand just does it right!
I had no idea what to expect, as this was my first wedding here. So interesting to attend this.
Good 👍😊
Thanks 😊
Big family
This was a giant wedding!
I want to join the food, look yummy
There was so much food at this wedding!
Great video. I really like learning about other cultures and their traditions.
Yeah this was a great experience for sure!
Beautiful Thai wedding ceremony and you are lucky to join in this happy culture
It was such a privilege to see this.
I am Thai. I am Thai. I like your video. But I would like to add that this is a wedding of a well-to-do person.
Yes, this was obviously a wedding of people that are not the average Thai. I’ve never been to a Thai wedding before, so this was very interesting for me to see.
Nice tradition. As opposed to west, where it's mainly about getting pissed, if i understand it correctly 😊
such a interesting experience for me. I really enjoyed it
First - love your bearded look, Serg. I've been to several Thai weddings (by my age) and I've been to weddings in Uthai Thani. This rather quiet town doesn't have many choices of wedding function facilities in hotels and having a wedding ceremony at home with community kitchens is popular and very warm and funfilled. Thanks for sharing the moment. BTW do you understand the trick (naughty humor) when they play with mortar and pestle?
It’s a lovely little province. I had such a great time here. And yes the mortar and pestle was quite entertaining lol.
Hmmmm.... Normally I can't remember anything after 20.00 in Thai wedding...
THanks for sharing mate!
Ha ha. I know what you mean.
Hi Serg! I just ran into you on the street a little while ago. Sorry if I caught you off guard but I knew I'd regret not saying hi. I also wanted to say I've been a fan of your videos for a few months, so thank you!
- Michael
Hi Michael! It was my pleasure to stop and chat with you for a moment. My 30 minute walk home turned into a 19 km, five hour walk. Lol. If you ever see me around again, do not hesitate to stop and say hello.
That's really impressive in this heat 😂 I will do! Thanks again
คุณ serg ต้องโห่ช่วยขบวนขันหมากด้วยนะ เป็นงานแต่งที่อบอุ่นมากครับ
It was a wonderful experience.
May you have happy and healthy life together. Also 9.meaning is move your leg forward
Oh yes! Thank you for reminding me about the meaning of 9, I completely forgot about that part
😊😊😊
😊👍
I love Thai weddings, whole day celebrations 🍾. Maybe they do it differently than others that I have been to but the markings on the head are normally the bride's father from my understanding. The monk would not be allowed to touch a woman to put the slurry on the forehead.
You might be right! I did not witness who put the markings on them. Good point.
@LifewithSerg the gates he had to go through were so much easier than mine at my wedding. I was made to do tasks to get through each one. I had to spell my wife's name in Thai, do 20 press ups (in a suit in 35° heat, sorry, i do not do Fahrenheit) sing a love song, amongst other things.
Great craic but he seemed to get off easy!
@@matthewtrearty2082 😂😂😂😂you westerner ppl.you need to passed teased much more than Thai men.bcuz make sure you show how much u desired to be hard work 4 you love one.sorry bro 😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😊😊😊
Wow 500 people. I think we only see that with celebrities in USA 😂
Yeah, this was a huge wedding!
Yup, someone i know just married in Thailand, cost about 500,000b (about $14k usd)
Yah wedding this size are not cheap.
เจ้าสาวน่ารักค่ะ ขอให้คู่สมรสคู่นี้มีความสุขมากๆนะ ❤
That’s very kind of you
❤🎉
☺️
This is pretty extravagant!
.. If this was my wedding-day I would have backed out.
Too much fuss and people is not for me. But the traditions are definitely interesting to see and learn about.
Yah it was quite a bit to be honest. While I would want something much more simple, this was an amazing experience.
Thanks for your video.Show Thai culture.
I have been marriages 30 years ago and. act like this.
My wedding take two times.
1 st at my wife 's home in floating market (Dum-nueon-sa-duang)
and 2 nd at the ballroom in Bangkok.
So tired.
That sounds like you had an amazing ceremony. Congratulations on 30 years of marriage!
สวยงาม ถูกต้องตามประเพณี ยังมีผู้หญิงอีก 60/100 ยังมีฝันที่จ่ะได้แต่งงานแบบนี้
Yes, this definitely seemed to be a dream wedding
Been to 5 different Thai weddings but never one as big and pricey as this one.
This is my first one, so I had no idea what to expect
Go to the local politician families' wedding and you'll see ten thousands of guest.
Fortunately you don't drink, but...Hong Thong Spirit with soda are gooood. 😁 ha ha ha
I might, or might not have, had quite a bit of it at that wedding. 😂
Thanks, Serg, for the upload and sharing such a beautiful Thai wedding.😊
I've been following you since your arrival in Thailand (almost 2 years ago). 🇹🇭
If im not mistaken, the song that the lady sung on stage (towards the end) is the same song a band played at your visit to the Jodd Fair. May be a popular Thai song?
This was such a wonderful experience! I’m really thankful that I’ve been included in several of this families life events.
Wow, you’ve been following me for almost 2 years. Thank you so much for your support.
As for the song she played, you have a much better memory than I do. I did not recognize this song at all.
@@LifewithSerg You are most definitely welcome. I enjoy your videos. They are fun and very informative. I watch your channel and a few others. As I'm preparing for my move/new life on the Continent of Oceania from America.
Yup, it is without a doubt the same song. 🎶
Serg. What is the name of the song that the band is playing at the end of the video? (14:52)
Job 2 Do - Do-Ther-Tum (Doo Doo Doo)????
Unfortunately, I haven’t the slightest clue.
15:16 This is Thai upper class wedding. Congratulation to the couple.
Yes, I realize this is not a common Thai wedding. I’ve never been to one before, so this was an exciting experience for me. Thank you for watching.
You content of Blog is great with mix topic. Something out from the other blogger. It like a cocktail of great drink 🍸 😋 Cheer
Thailand only
Yes amazing.
Hello
Hello!
Forget the wedding , your wearing a shirt with collar, wow
LMAO, I actually own a few. Even some long sleeve dress shirts. 😳😱🤣
Hello how are you
Good thank you.
Very expensive ceremony. I guess these weddings don’t occur during the rainy season
Oh man this def would not happen during the rainy season.
Really learned a lot about Thai wedding traditions from the video! Though the dancers in skimpy outfits twerking on stage towards the end of the dinner threw me off a bit.
Yah those dancers were not something you normally see. Not something the groom or bride requested, it’s a long story.
I am Thai. I'v never seen a groom putting facial makeup on this much in a wedding ceremony.
This is my first Thai wedding. Had no idea what to expect.
Can you explain the 4 ladies that looked like they were from a car show.......Matt
They are dancer
That’s a whole different story, Matt. That is not part of a traditional Thai wedding. All I can say is that somebody requested for them to be there.
All the word it’s different.
Yes, you’re so correct. Always interesting to see local traditions.
จัดงานได้ดีสวยงามจริงมากค้ะยินดีด้วยนะค่ะจัดงานแบบคนไทยภาคไหนค้ะ
This was in Uthai Thani
I think most weddings in the world do include a ritual involving the bed' 😂
Lolll
Careful Serg ...it is dangerous than riding the curves on mae hong song ...loop..🤣
Seriously! I’m just spectator. Lol
Thank you for the clarification....🙂🙏 happy to hear
เธอโดนผึ้งต่อยมา
What?? Lol
Be careful at weddings, one of those single ladies might latch onto you and never let go. I think I prefer 10 minutes at the justice of the peace.
Yah, I would much rather have a short, sweet ceremony. This was an epic experience though.
So do single men at weddings over there get accosted by women how did you make out?
LMAO. so here’s a funny story. my friends, grandmother, the girl who explained the bed ceremony, thinks that she and I are dating. My friend told her grandmother that we have been friends for almost 3 years and have never dated. However, her grandmother doesn’t believe it, and has told all the women in their circle to stay away from me. So needless to say, I am off-limits to most of these women when I go there. It’s actually quite comical.
@@LifewithSerg that's a bummer😂 was a great video though keep it up😎
1 Mil Thai baht is considered typical for sinsod. My farang husband still owes my parents lol. Just kidding, my parents didn't ask for it.
Yah I don’t get it. I don’t agree with this custom personally. I’m not buying a cow or a prostitute. It’s not about money, it’s the principle I really dislike.
