Thanks to my dear friend Soon, that I got an opportunity to witness this Lavish yet Traditional Korean Wedding. It was an awesome experience for me and luckily the commentators were explaining the rituals in English. So here are pictures with detailed description about the rituals from what I remember..
The Wedding Hall Exterior.
The Ajummas from the Brides family welcoming the guests.

The Groom arrives in a Gama (Palanquin) led by men.
The Groom holding the Wooden Goose. The goose is a supposed to have only one partner in its life time so it symbolises trust, loyalty and fidelity..
The Bride arrives in the Gama..
As per tradition, the Bride and the Groom meeting for the first time. But the Bride has to cover her face.
The wedding procession now begins.

And last but not the least, is the delicious food…
Just Another Indian in Korea 
That’s beautiful, though I get the feeling that a high percentage of Korean traditional weddings involve people people who aren’t Korean.
Hey Jim,
Thanks for you comment.
Ya a lot of Koreans these days want to get married to Foreigners and here is one article on Single Korean females who eye foreign husbands: http://joongangdaily.joins.com/article/view.asp?aid=2919946
You can also read this article on Korean Men who are using brokers to find brides in Vietnam through Wedding Tourism package:
Having said that, let me also clarify that the above wedding I attended has nothing to do with the articles I have shared. The Bride is well educated. she did her Phd abroad and met her (now husband) while studying.

Please know that getting this message means I have a great deal of respect for the work of yours that I have seen. I would love to have you along as a fellow pioneer for this project. Please e-mail me if you are interested, and I would be happy to give you the specifics- abax86@rams.colostate.edu. Hope to hear from you soon. Also, here’s a link to my blog… thenomaddiary.com
