i don’t like to go to attend weddings because i’m single. The last wedding I attended was my older sister’s which was in pudong. She invited a lot of relatives to see the moment of her marriage ceremony. Her husband was older than her and their parents didn’t agree with the marriage at first but she tried to change their mind and it worked. When she wore the wedding dress I thought she was so beautiful because she was full of happiness.
