That picture was part of their wedding set, which in China are taken weeks BEFORE the wedding so you can show them off. It was a 10 hour photo session with 2 hours of makeup, hair etc. It's big deal & cost a whopping $700. In NA it would have been $5K . . .



I deleted that pic as threatened. Here is one that is a bit more real. Note the very happy expression on her father. This was the night before the wedding. As I mentioned there were problems. He is a dick. He is used to snapping his fingers & people jump. His daughter & wife told him to f*ch himself later at 2 AM & his wife ran to the lawyer at 5 AM on Sunday (the day of the public wedding) to get the wedding certificate from the actual civil ceremony which happened a week earlier. He threatened to cancel the wedding & erase the docs & 'call out the army' if necessary. And he has the 'muscle' to do it. And we were in a strange city, in a strange country with no transportation & staying with the bride's uncle. No joke. He & I had a heart to heart talk - through a translator - at dinner the next night & cleared the air.
