Wedding Monks of Buriram, Thailand 2015

My wife and I traveled to Buriram, Thailand in 2015, for my brother's wedding. As part of the traditional ceremony, monks prayed over the couple, and as part of the tradition, gifts were presented to the monks, which included Thai Redbull.

This photograph was taken just after the ceremony, as the monks climbed into the back of their pickup truck, on the way to another ceremony. I remember that they were also given cigarettes.
