Thank you Friends

In keeping with the Quaker wedding tradition, we had a wedding certificate which was signed by all present as witnesses of the union. The message of our certificate can be found below.


Whereas Hai Nguyen and Youme Landowne, having declared their intentions of commitment with each other to Miami Monthly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends held at Miami Friends Meeting, their proposed union was allowed by that Meeting.

Now this is to certify to whom it may concern, that for the accomplishment of their intentions, this First day of the First month, in the Year 2010, they Hai and Youme, appeared in a meeting for worship of the Religious Society of Friends held at Miami Friends Meeting. And taking each other by the hands did declare, each speaking in turn, that they took each other,promising with Divine assistance to be unto each other loving and faithful husband and wife as long as they both should live.

And moreover they, Hai and Youme, did, as further confirmation thereof, then and there to this certificate set their hands.

AND WE, having been present at the ceremony, have as witnesses hereunto set our hands.

What is a Quaker wedding?
Our shared joy made possible by your friendship and your kindness to one another. We know that we are who we are because all of you have contributed to our characters.
In these moments before the wonderful date, excitement is mounting and questions that seek answers have somehow managed to find solutions, we welcome the new questions knowing there will always be more. A common goal has been to determine what of Vietnamese wedding traditions to include,
