When you attend a wedding ceremony in Vietnam you will often see the bride in at least 3 different dresses during the evening in 1 day.
Brides in Vietnam often rent these dresses for the occasion. The rental shops not only rent dresses and tuxes but often also take studio photos of the bride and groom, photoshop all the blemishes and add a scenic background to the photos, print the wedding album, do the photography the day of the wedding, and do the hair and makeup for the studio shoot and on the day of the wedding.
For the wedding album photoshoot (which takes place about a month before the event) I wore 4 different dresses and on the day of the wedding I opted to only have one costume change. Best of all in terms of US dollars it was not cheap, about $200 for the rental, hair and amp; makeup, photoshoot and a beautiful album.
