An individual remarked, 'I learn so much from your vlogs—awesome! Keep them coming.' Another added, 'Very Western, sit-down dinner! Maybe show us a truly ethnic wedding… country style. Tradition is getting lost. Sad, really, as with modern-day lifestyle, I guess children won't want to embrace the 'old' way of celebrations."
A third expressed, 'One thing that puzzles me is most people don't dress up for a wedding.' A fourth wrote, 'Thank you for the video.'
