Morning of August 9, 2014,At the Botanical Garden, 3 Hoang Hoa Tham Street, Hanoi, a competition for 50 couples titled "Marathon of Love and Challenges" took place. This was a parallel activity within the framework of the 6th annual Honeymoon and Wedding Perfect (HWP) 2014 Wedding and Honeymoon Tourism Exhibition. The exhibition was organized by Travellive Magazine in collaboration with the Malaysia Tourism Promotion Board and Hanoi Daewoo Hotel; sponsored by VP Bank, Phu Nhuan Jewelry Joint Stock Company (PNJ), and Vietnam Airlines (the sole transportation sponsor). The exhibition will take place from 9:00 AM on August 15-17, 2014, at Hanoi Daewoo Hotel, 360 Kim Ma Street, Ba Dinh District.
A romantic mass wedding procession of 50 couples on Vespas started from the Hanoi Daewoo Hotel and traveled through the "love roads"—the most beautiful streets in Hanoi. After taking commemorative photos at the Grand Opera House, the couples gathered at the Botanical Garden to run hand-in-hand for the first prize: a 5-day, 4-night honeymoon trip to Langkawi, Malaysia for two people, worth 60 million VND, along with other attractive prizes totaling over 300 million VND. The competition took place in a lively and extremely suspenseful atmosphere. With two rounds, Love and Challenge, each participating couple had to demonstrate excellent coordination, skill, and perseverance. These are also the qualities that every young person on the threshold of marriage needs to possess, because life together is not always smooth sailing, but also has its obstacles that only couples who understand each other and hold hands tightly can overcome.
After incredibly exciting, humorous, and youthful competitions, the awards were presented to the most deserving couples.
First Prize: A 5-day, 4-night honeymoon trip to Langkawi, Malaysia for two people, worth 60 million VND, was awarded to the couple Luu Hoang Nam and Nguyen Thi Thu Huong.
Second Prize: Two round-trip tickets on Vietnam Airlines, with a 90% discount, in Economy class, for journeys from Vietnam to Malaysia or within Vietnam, were awarded to the couple Luong Xuan Nghia and Bui Thi Hoa.
Third Prize: A wedding dress worth 7,000,000 VND, sponsored by Mju Studio, was awarded to the couple Vu Van Dat and Dinh Thi Tuyet.
The award for the most beautiful bride and groom, worth 20,000,000 VND, including a wedding photo album taken in Hanoi, two enlarged photos, and a rental package including one wedding dress and one traditional Vietnamese wedding dress sponsored by Julia Wedding Photography Studio, was awarded to the couple Nguyen Viet Dung and Pham Thi Ngoc Bich.
Joint Prize: A 3-day, 2-night stay at Paradise Suites Hotel Halong worth VND 9,000,000, awarded to 20 couples who advance to the Challenge Round.
