I am getting married in Boston and am trying to figure out how to organize a paebaek there. Does anyone have any thoughts or experience with that? Or with anyone who will travel?
I would to find a paebaek rental place in philadelphia. Does anyone have any recs? Also, anyone have any program descriptions so that we can explain it to our guests?
Wow thanks for all the info!! This site is great! I called the Pae baek place and they may be coming to RI (my wedding locaton)...so it's ok to do it during the cocktail hr for all to see? What worked out the best for those of you who have already done this? The lady is charging $1500 seems like they have gotten popular and are increasing the prices...plus she's adding on for the extra charge if they are coming all the way to RI....no guarantees yet...=(
We did it during the cocktail hour (between the ceremony and the reception). We were a little rushed, but I think it was the only choice for us. People suggested doing it during the reception (so everyone can see) and also after the reception. I've seen it being done during the reception, and it didn't turn out very well. And we didn't want to do it after the reception bc we wanted to end the night with our friends instead of having them wait around for us while we did the paebaek. Anyhow, hope this helps!
i think you can do the paebaek at any time. we just had our wedding 4/19/08 and did the paebaek totally separately from the cocktail hour and reception. the reason we did it that way was because the reception venue included an extra hour for a ceremony but we did our traditional ceremony in a church. so to take advantage of the extra hour, we did a more formal paebaek ceremony prior to the cocktail hour (our venue served drinks just before the paebaek) with the audience seated in the ballroom. the rose furniture people from flushing were on time and put on a great paebaek. many people told me it was the best part of the wedding! people absolutely loved it and appreciated learning about korean culture as well. i can't wait to get pictures!
