I am from Yangon, Burma, also known as Myanmar. It's located in Southeast Asia. My boyfriend is from Utah. He was my first blind date. |

In my tradition, boys don’t propose or ask the father’s permission. It's the boy's family that asks the girl's family for her hand in marriage. My boyfriend found this out the hard way. He flew to San Francisco to ask for my father’s permission and my mom asked him if we could include some Burmese tradition. When we were planning our formal engagement ceremony we wanted to incorporate both cultures with a modern twist. ~Pyone
