Pook Mue

(symbolic good wishes around your wrist)

The newly married couple kneel on the floor resting their arms on large pillows. The most senior and respected person in the family will start to tie each wrist of the couple with strings of white cotton. As they do this, they wish the couple much happiness, prosperity and healthy children. This ritual involves family members and close friends only.

For guests who do not bring family, several members of the hotel staff will be present to offer best wishes.
