Krabi wedding parade carries Bt2m dowry
A parade of six trucks and trailers celebrating the wedding of a couple in Lamtab District, Krabi, drew a lot of attention from residents.
The bridegroom is Tharapong Srisuk, 32, a former sub-district chief, and the bride is 27-year-old Pitchaya Boonmuang. The trailers decorated with flowers carried the groom, his friends and family with the dowry, including Bt2 million in cash, 20 bars of gold and a diamond necklace worth about Bt500,000 towards the bride’s house in Pru Dinna Sub-District.
A relative of the groom explained that he chose to use the trailers because his career was to transport palm oil with these vehicles which provided him with his wealth so he used his own trailers as well the ones from his business friends for the wedding.
