Hong Kong Wedding Post Part One

I’m not exactly up-to-date on my blogging. I got married in Hong Kong on February 1. It’s a great time to be in Hong Kong because it’s Chinese New Year. The only negative aspect is that every hotel is massively overpriced at that time.

Many people ask why we chose to get married in Hong Kong. The simple answer is that Hong Kong is a super easy country for two foreigners to get married in.



This is me at the airport in Jakarta before our flight to Hong Kong. We were partying pretty hard the night before even though we had to wake up at about 4 am to catch our flight. On the bright side, we flew with Garuda and the flight was totally comfortable.

This is just a Hong Kong looking picture.

When you’re in Hong Kong, head to Lockhart Road in Wan Chai. It’s action central. Here I am at Bar Amazonia . It’s a pretty awesome bar with good happy hour prices. We went there a few times and the Filipino band is great.



The Chung King Mansions are the backpacker/migrant labourer ghetto in Kong Kong.   The location absolutely can’t be beat, but the accommodations leave more than a little bit to be desired. It’s pretty much the only place a guy like me can afford to stay in Hong Kong. Not the most romantic honeymoon suite, but my wife is an understanding woman.

I got the impression that the priest really didn’t like his job. It must kind of suck marrying so many people every day. Our whole wedding last less than 15 minutes.

Sidiq and Brashier acted as our witnesses. They’re pretty cool guys.
