Massive wedding of a hundred of lovers

It is not a parade for a statutory holiday or a promotional procession but a massive wedding organized by a local government. It is an idea to help young people in a community who are in need to get married. They may be manual workers in suburban factories, maids, nail makers who have to leave their home land to land a job. Their monthly wages make both ends meet, how they can hold their wedding by their own.

The interest of the society in this regard is worthy of appreciation. It is a people-to-people interest that helps people overcome difficulties of material to come together in a couple's happiness.

Annually, Ho Chi Minh City's local government (Vietnam) organizes a massive wedding for a hundred of couples of lovers whose parents are too poor to hold a wedding party for their beloved children. This is a model that should be adapted to bring happiness to young people in love.

Every couple is offered a bicycle with which a groom drives a bride in a parade downtown. They are clad in traditional wedding wear. In a basket of a bicycle, there is a wedding crowd of a bride. A bride sitting behind wears a conic hat, holding a groom's waist, a romantic scene.
