The joyous and lively ambiance of a traditional wedding was unparalleled and could not be matched by any other modern wedding.
At half-past three in the morning, Roxanne was already dressed in a classic wedding gown with her face adorned with light makeup. Despite the veil obstructing her view, Roxanne's excitement was palpable as she eagerly awaited Lucian to lift her veil.
Close relatives of the Farwell family had come to lend a hand, filling the multi-story manor with the sounds of cheerful conversation and laughter.
The three little children were playing and chasing each other before running into Roxanne's room.
While Archie and Benny donned festive traditional outfits, Estella wore a beautiful traditional gown. They were chattering excitedly in front of Roxanne.
“Mommy, your wedding gown is so pretty. Can I take a look at your face?” Estella asked out of curiosity.
Archie interjected, “No. We cannot remove the veil. Only Daddy can do that.”
“Yeah! A traditional wedding has a lot of rituals and ceremonies. That's why it's festive and fun!” Benny chimed in.
The children, fascinated by the various items used in the rituals, began studying them intently.
When the moment finally arrived, a few female masters of ceremonies went in to escort Roxanne out of the room.
They helped her up the wedding carriage and headed straight to the manor.
Starting from the manor, they followed each ritual step by step according to the set schedule.
After stepping out of the carriage, Roxanne entered the manor and was greeted by Lucian.
They then exchanged wedding rings, recited the wedding vows, and sealed the deal with a kiss.
“Let's have a toast!” someone exclaimed, hoping to further liven up the atmosphere.
“Time to lead the newlyweds to their room!” the professional masters of ceremonies announced.
Every ritual was accompanied by heartfelt blessings, joyful cheers, and thunderous applause from the growing number of relatives and friends who had gathered to witness the wedding.
