Honoring Different Cultures

Indian wedding, Indian bride

At Peak Perfection Event Design, we love that our clients often want to infuse religious, ethnic and cultural traditions into their events. Whether it is an element during a ceremony or the reception, the attire or the cuisine, we can help bring the meaningful aspects of those traditions to light. We also specialize in finding unique and respectful ways of combining traditions when two people from differing backgrounds join together in union. Regardless of your background, you can be assured that we will meet your needs with the sensitivity and knowledge your favored traditions deserve.

    While this is certainly not an exhaustive list, some of the traditions that are seen frequently include:
  • • Jewish wedding traditions such as the breaking of the glass, standing under the chuppah, and dancing the hora
  • • The tea ceremony and the use of red and gold to symbolize joy and prosperity during Chinese weddings
  • • The use of mendi on the bride’s hands and feet and sitting on the mandapa (wedding altar) during Indian weddings
  • • “Jumping the broom” and employing purple and gold to represent royalty during African-American weddings
  • • Rites of Marriage and Holy Communion during a Catholic Wedding Mass
  • • The many religious and cultural traditions of the Jewish Bar or Bat Mitzvah or the Catholic Quinceanera (explored in more detail on their respective pages)
  • • Serving food and drink that characterize one’s culture
