當兩位911急救人員步入婚姻，這場婚禮註定不只是浪漫的儀式，更充滿使命感與文化深意。來自德州奧斯汀的Loretta與Brant選擇在婚禮中舉行一場中式茶禮，向家人致敬，也向自身的文化根源致敬。

茶禮當天，Loretta穿上了一襲驚艷全場的中式婚禮旗袍——大紅色絲綢內襯、立體手工刺繡的龍鳳圖騰，象徵著吉祥與圓滿。她所穿的正是傳統的Chinese wedding dress——裙褂Qun Kwa。特別的是，她將自己的姓氏「黃」繡在金龍一側，將對家族的認同與傳承融入服飾之中，讓這件旗袍不僅成為婚禮的焦點，也是一份獻給祖輩的情感禮物。

在白紗仍為主流的西式婚禮中，Loretta選擇以Qipao或Cheongsam作為她的文化宣言。這不只是一件婚服，更是一場文化與情感的對話。她用旗袍說出自己的故事，也讓我們再次看見——無論是Chinese wedding dress、Qipao、Cheongsam，甚至是現代融合設計的Tang Suit，中式禮服的優雅與深意，從來不只是傳統，而是傳承與溫柔的力量。

這些充滿故事的中式婚禮禮服，多來自知名品牌JINZA，這是一家位於洛杉磯的品牌，專注於融合傳統工藝與現代設計，為每位新娘打造專屬的東方之美。

Love, Heritage, and a Qipao: A 9/11 First Responder's Chinese Wedding Tea Ceremony

When 9/11 first responders Loretta and Brant from Austin, Texas, celebrated their wedding, they honored both love and legacy with a Chinese wedding tea ceremony.

Loretta wore a breathtaking Chinese wedding dress, the traditional Qun Kwa in vibrant red silk, embroidered with dragon and phoenix motifs—symbols of joy and union. She had her family name "Huang" stitched onto the gold dragon, making the gown a deeply personal tribute to her heritage.

In a world where white gowns dominate, Loretta made a bold cultural statement by choosing a Qipao or Cheongsam as her bridal dress. These styles reflect not only elegance but also the enduring values of family and identity. Whether it's a Chinese wedding dress, Qipao, Cheongsam, or a modern Tang Suit, Chinese wedding attire carries timeless meaning and grace.

Many of these exquisite designs come from JINZA, a Los Angeles-based brand known for its mastery in blending tradition with contemporary style—bringing meaningful couture to modern weddings.
