A good friend of mine is getting married in a few months and has asked me to be her bridesmaid. She is Chinese and will have a Chinese-style ceremony (with the presenter, stage, cheesy music, games etc.). I have no idea what being a bridesmaid in China entails. What is expected of me? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
Can't give tips for you as a bridesmaid i'm afraid, but I have been best man here twice. The best man is expected to drink for the groom as everyone wants to offer him drinks. It's marvelous. The most memorable weddings that I have no recollection of whatsoever.
You will be expected to follow the bride and groom around every table pouring drinks for the toast.I met my wife at my brothers wedding ,i was the bestman she was the bridesmaid,as Martian says bestman drinks,bridesmaid keeps filling up,because its usually water you carry not Baiju

Wow, that sounds like a lot of drinking! What if I don't want to drink? Is there any way to get out of it. It's obviously going to be baijiu and I CANNOT handle that. One shot, maybe; 2 or more and I'll be puking all over the bride!
