Vietnamese Tea Ceremony

A tea ceremony host is your guide and coordinator for one of the most meaningful parts of a traditional wedding. At Together with JO, we help facilitate your Vietnamese tea ceremony, ensuring every step flows smoothly—from family introductions to cultural rituals. Having a professional host means you can fully enjoy the moment while we handle timing, structure, and communication between families and provide suggestions and ideas on the ceremony activities and timeline.

Absolutely. A traditional Vietnamese tea ceremony (Lễ Vu Quy / Lễ Thành Hôn) includes: - Groom’s family arriving with gifts - Formal introduction between families - Presentation of gifts (mâm quả) - Bride serving tea to both families - Receiving blessings and gifts (usually jewellery or red envelopes) - And so much more depending on your family’s regional culture and traditions. As your host, we guide each step so nothing feels confusing or rushed.

Definitely. This is one of our specialties. I offer bilingual tea ceremony hosting, helping bridge communication between families who speak different languages, so everyone feels included and respected.

A typical Vietnamese tea ceremony runs between 45 to 120 minutes, depending on family size and traditions, especially on whether you are doing your tea ceremony in 1 location or 2 locations. We help plan the timing to fit seamlessly into your wedding day schedule.
