Matthew and Jenny's Melbourne wedding last year was a beautiful combination of Chinese tradition and Australian fun. Matthew arrived at the brides home in the morning for a tea ceremony, but wouldn't be allowed in until he passed the tests set by Jenny's bridemaids. A Chinese singing test, a quiz and the taste test followed where Matthew had to correctly identify tofu and ginger among others. Luckily he passed, and the ceremony and reception took place at the beautiful Red Spice Road.

The Chinese tradition of folding 1000 paper cranes before the wedding was supposed to instill the bride and groom with great patience, just whats needed in marriage! Folding 1000 origami cranes certainly does require patience, but once you've got the hang of it, they are very simple to make. Stringing the cranes hanging from the ceiling is a truly beautiful way to display your finished creations. But there are plenty of other uses for them. They make lovely place cards and even wedding cake decorations. Pics: artist Giles Edsall via Artful Paper, the knot and The Selby
