My Thai Bride

Posted by on Apr 24 2008 | Success Stories

I met my Thai bride about 5 years ago. Her name is Suwan and she is from Bangkok. I met her while actually walking at MBK. She owned her own web side design company and I was smitten with her from the beginning. I’ve always loved they way Thai girls look but something was different about her. I really didn’t know until about 5 months later.

We have been married for a few years now and we have welcomed a son and a daughter into the world. It has been nothing but a pure joy living her in Thailand with Suwan. Other Thai girls go un-noticed these days. We spend almost every day together. My work here in Thailand takes me to Chiang Mai and down to Trang but that is ok for she sometimes comes with me.

Having a Thai bride has been very interesting. When we first decided to get married I had no idea what her family would think. I have since become the son her dad never had. He is a great guy and although the family was a bit reluctant in the beginning, they have all come around. It’s not everyday that a foriegner marries a Thai girl in their village.

The ceremony was strange and bizarre and all in a good way. Weddings that I’ve been to in the states are nothing compared to Thai brides. Just to put something to rest, there was NO dowry fee and I’ve never been asked for one so I do believe that may be a myth. Who knows.

After the wedding we spent 2 weeks in New York where my family is from and they all got to meet my new Thai bride. They did not have a chance to fly to Thailand for the wedding so we had a huge ceremony in New York. My mother isn’t quite capable of flying long distances these days but she sure does love Suwan and her new grand children.

I’ll keep you posted to our success. I appreciate you posting my story.
