It's the first time I've been to an official Thai engagement party and it was nothing like the ones I've been to in Australia. One might say they are very formal in an informal way but there was one standout in my mind in that no party goes down without lots of food! One thing I wasn't aware of in the tradition is the symbolism of 'tieing the knot' which I thought was only a western tradition. Seems like it has been practised in the Asian culture for quite some time. Well, the two of them seem quite happy together and we wish them all the good fortune in these tough economic times. Of course, no party can be complete without going to a temple to make merit and buy this months lottery tickets!

I chose early retirement instead of working the 40 40 40 plan and now I'm living stress-free as an Aussie ex-pat living in Thailand with my Thai girlfriend. Our Video Blog covers the typical things we find ourselves doing as we build our life together living in the suburbs of Bangkok. My fiancée is a post-op ladyboy and we have been together since 2009. I finally moved to Thailand in September 2016 because the 8 years of travelling to see her were taking its toll. We hope we will give you a unique perspective on Thailand life and lifestyle as we go about our daily life and sometimes explore the Land of Smiles.

Interesting traditions around the world. Always fascinating. Thank you Chanya and Wazza.👍🙏
I thought it was very civilized!
Hello warren and chanya!😀 very educational and interesting! Here in america we are losing tradition more and more! Love you guys!❤💜👍😘
"I come from a land down under, where beer does flow and men chunder!" The engagement party usually involves drinking lots of beer and seeing who throws up first!
😀❤👍🤢🤮🤣😂
Methinks the engaged girl is already a couple of months pregnant when this video was taken 😀🤚🏻
Hahaha! Very observant of you Adrian 😉
So interesting
It was different that's for sure
share the Thai good luck,, chokdee, eat , drink be engaged n merry... get lotto for future,.. good coverage Warren.. 🙏
You're a resident so you know how it goes 😉
hi Wazza bit different to a Aussie Engagement parties hehe, gota love traditional Ceremonies in different counties🙏👍😀
It does seem somewhat more respectful for the couple at least 👍
Been there, done that lol. In our case when the strings were tied around our wrists each person used it to attatch money for good luck. Knowing what makes a Thai lady truly happy i gave mine to my Mrs. I like a quiet life😉😂
And they say, happy wife happy life!

Looks like the kid in the yellow shirt is videoing Candy instead of the ceremony. Smart kid.
Hahaha! It happens!
