Atlanta Monkeys - Pleaase Help

[BTgirl]

Hubby and I got an invitation today from some Chinese people. It's for July 21, and here is what it says:

Mr. & Mrs. _________ & Mr. & Mrs.___________ request the honor of your presence at the marriage celebration of their children __________ and _______________ on Saturday__________ 2007, at 12:00 noon

Mo Mo Ya
Lee's Golden Buddha Restaurant
Wedding reception immediately following the ceremony.

The part in bold is the part that has us confused. If the name of the restaurant is Lee's Golden Buddha Restaurant, what is Mo Mo Ya? And do you think it sounds like they're getting married inside the restaurant?

I'm soooooooo confused!  

Thanks for any help anyone can give.

   I am not an Atlanta monkey but -
I googled Mo Mo Ya and it is a Japanese Restaurant and is under the same roof as Lee's Golden Buddha Chinese Restaurant.  Looks like there are several of them around the area.
No idea about the wedding service though - could well be in the restaurant or function room or they may have a Japanese Garden?  Take your camera

TY, Tibro. The bride is involved in the Chinese restaurant business and there should be a LOT of good food at the reception.

Thanks, Klaas.

Hubby and I are being very ethnically diverse in our wedding attendance this year. A few weeks ago we went to one between a man from Ecuador and a woman from Russia. Next we're going to the Chinese wedding, and a couple of weeks after that, we going to be a couple of the very few pale faces at a wedding in a predominantly black church.

Shoot, we'll be downright sophisticated if this keeps up.

BT - There are indeed two restaurants under one roof. Mo Mo Ya serves Japanese including habachi and sushi. It is fun, good; the chefs are very entertaining with the knives flashing and flames leaping and "onion volcano" eruping etc. I've eaten there many times and it is near where we had our Atlanta lunch in March.

I have not eaten in the Chinese part so I can't comment specifically about it. But it sounds like a really delicious wedding reception coming up!

Apparently there are two locations of this combination of restaurants; I did not know that. The Buckhead location is the one that is very near where we had our Monkey Lunch.

(Further, Golden Buddha has two additional locations.)

Thanks so much for the info, Ms. Marple!

I'm really looking forward to it.
