Ethiopia

The Marriage Procedure begins with the men sending elders (Shimagle) who then ask for unity among the parties. The elders discuss the dowry (???) and verify that the bride in question is not a relative by checking their lineage at least seven generations. After the wedding was agreed and it was determined that there was no relationship between the intended bride, the marriage was announced and the family began preparations for the church/mosque ceremony and mels/melsi ceremony. On the wedding day the groom and grooms (??) get ready at the groom's house in the morning and continue on to the bride's parents' house to start the wedding ceremony. In the house of the bride's parents, the bride prepares and sits waiting for the arrival of the bridegroom. When the groom and the wedding party arrive, the family and friends of the bride ceremonially block the entrance to the house. The groomsmen have to do a serenade or bribe home so the groom can bring the bride with him. In addition, the best man holds the perfume and sprays it everywhere inside the bride's family home. After this ceremony, the groom took his bride and they along with the procession went to church/mosque to take their wedding vows.

After the religious ceremony, the wedding procession moves to the park/garden where lunch is served for guests. After that, the wedding party usually takes pictures as guests walk into the reception. At the reception, depending on the family ethnic group there are some traditional dances performed. Ethiopian weddings usually serve Ethiopian food and live music and parties usually last until morning. To close the wedding ceremony, the elders sitting at the exit of the venue and the bride along with the wedding party bowed and kissed the elders knees when they came out of the place. This is usually the conclusion of Ethiopia's first day of marriage.

During the ceremony mels/i depends on ethnic family heritage but usually smaller than the first ceremony and time for close friends and family to spend time with each other and continue to celebrate newly married couples.

Kikuyu

Usually, the marriage process often begins with the man who applied for the woman. After he was accepted, the man then requested a meeting with his clan elders composed largely of extended family members of the elderly. A delegate carrying a small gift was then sent to the woman's house to meet with her clan elders. Deliberation about the price of the bride really starts at a later date and this is done strictly by older men only. Upon completion of this negotiation, the date of marriage is established, with the elders after giving an acceptable percentage of the full dowry. The remainder of the dowry is expected later. No request was made for it, but the youth was expected to remember to complete his payment and failure to do so a disgrace spell for the family.

The wedding day begins with a convoy from the family of the groom who goes to the girl's house to pick her up. However, the convoy did not go straight into the girl's house. Rather the bridal gate is locked and the song and dance begin as a cover for negotiation. Various items could be requested from the groom and he volunteered to meet the demands after which he was allowed into the compound.

Nigeria

Generally, there are three types of marriages in Nigeria: traditional weddings, church weddings, and weddings. Civil marriage takes place in the registry, and then the following religious ceremonies. Finally this is a traditional wedding ceremony of Nigeria. Many couples choose to do all three, depending on their financial situation. Nigerian wedding is usually marked with many colors.

In traditional marriages, customs differ slightly from one part of Nigeria to another. In the West it is called an engagement ceremony. Officials and parents drink wine while they invite the couple to introductions and negotiations, and bridal price presentations that mainly consist of gift shoes, textiles, jewelry and bags.

In the East of the country it is very similar. Elders from both families retreated to the inside room to negotiate the price of the bride. When summed up, the gift was then presented to the bride's family. After this, the bride, along with her group of girls is presented to her husband, family and guests.

Pygmy wedding tradition

Pygmy's involvement is not long and is usually formalized by exchanging visits between the families concerned. The groom who will bring the gift of the game or maybe some arrows to his new in-laws, brings home his bride to stay in the band and with his new parents. His only obligation was to find his relative a girl willing to marry a brother or brother of his wife. If she feels she can feed more than one wife, she may have an additional wife.

Middle Eastern Habit

Arabic custom

Although Christian marriage in the Arab World has a resemblance to Western marriage, Muslim marriages in Arab countries are influenced by Muslim traditions. Muslim marriage begins with Shaykh and Al-usab (the book) for the bride. Marriage is illegitimate in an Islamic way unless the bride is willing, and the groom is often advised to visit her before marriage (as suggested in many of the Prophet's Muhammad). However, this visit must be escorted to ensure purity of action between the two. It is customary that the groom and his family pay all the wedding expenses. The Bride's family gather together before the wedding at the bride's parents' home. The Groom family came and brought the Bride from home in a car decorated with a bride who was usually a sister of a bride, a cousin, or a close friend. The rest of the family and close friends followed their car, honking the car. The reception is usually for all family and friends usually with meals and cakes. The almond-covered candy is a traditional gift from the couple. There are many dances and (zaghareet) Ululasi. The Muslim tradition is to have Men on one side and women on the other so that women can cover their heads. But in non-Muslim traditions, the whole marriage is for both sexes.

Iranian custom

The tradition of Persian weddings, despite local and regional variations, like many other rituals in Persia goes back to the ancient Zoroastrian tradition. Although the concept and theories of marriage have changed drastically by Islamic tradition, the actual ceremonies remain more or less the same as they were originally in ancient Zoroastrian culture.

European custom

English habits

Western customs of a bride wearing a white wedding dress come to symbolize purity, not virginity, in the Victorian era. In the tradition of "white marriage", white clothing and veils are not considered appropriate in the second or subsequent marriage of a widow or divorcee. Special conventions of Western marriage, largely from the Protestant and Catholic point of view, are discussed on a "white marriage".

Weddings are often followed or accompanied by wedding receptions, which in some areas may be known as 'Wedding Breakfast', where elaborate wedding cakes are served. Western traditions include roasting couples, newlyweds having first dances, and cutting cakes. A bride can throw her bouquet to a gathering group of all unmarried women present, with folklore that shows the person who arrested her will remarry. A fairly recent equivalent has been the bridegroom throwing the bridal gown to unmarried men; the person who caught him should have remarried.

The Wedding Breakfast is one event where every member of the family who has at least several roles in the wedding is present. It is also important as the first time the newly married bride shares their first meal together as a legitimate couple. Modern Wedding Breakfasts include guest service meals that can range from traditional grilled meats, buffet or regional snacks as in the case of London Wedding in the 'East End'.

Another Victorian tradition is for brides to wear or carry "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue" during worship. It's considered good luck to do it. Often the bride tries to have one item that satisfies all these qualifications, like a newly borrowed "blue" handkerchief borrowed by her grandmother (thus making her old). Another addition to this habit is to wear coins in one's shoes to bring prosperity.

The complete text of this verse is:

Something old, something new,
Something borrowed, something blue,
And six pence silver in your shoes.

Scottish customs

Scotland is a popular place for young English couples to get married because, in Scotland, parental consent is not required if both brides are old enough to marry legally (16). In the UK it is a case that if either 16 or 17 then the consent of the parent should be sought. So Scottish, and especially the blacksmith at Gretna Green, became a very popular place for couples to elope, especially those under 18 and usually living in England. Gretna Green now hosts hundreds of weddings a year and is the third most popular tourist attraction in Scotland.

  • The bride's family sends invitations on behalf of the couple to a wedding guest, handled by hand. Couples can send their own invitations, especially if they are more middle-aged. Invitations are usually sent no later than 6 weeks before the wedding and will determine whether an invitation to the ceremony and/or reception and/or evening after meal at the reception. It is becoming more common in recent times to Store Date Cards that will be used to notify previous invitees to allow sufficient notice of the arrangements to be made to ensure attendance. It can be sent up to 6 months before the wedding day.
  • A guest sends or sends a wedding gift to the family home of the bride before the wedding day. Alternatively, couples can register at a department store and have a list of prizes there. The store then arranges delivery, usually to the parents' home or to the reception.
  • The wedding ceremony takes place in a church, registration office or perhaps another favorite location, such as a hilltop. In this case Scotland differs significantly from the UK where only the previously approved public locations can be used for the wedding ceremony. Most of the ceremony takes place in the middle of the afternoon and lasts about half an hour where the wedding schedule is signed by a couple and two witnesses, usually the best man and bridesmaid's head.
  • Newly married couples often leave ceremonies with bagpipes.
  • There is a wedding reception after the ceremony, usually in different places.
  • The bridal party, or members of it, always include the bride, marching on the receiving line and wedding guests past her, introducing herself.
  • Usually drinks are served when guests and weddings mingle. In some cases drinks may be whiskey or wine with non alcoholic alternatives.
  • The best father and groom grill the bride with personal thoughts, stories, and expectations, usually funny. The groom then follows with a response on behalf of his bride. Champagne is usually provided for toast.
  • Almost always there is a dance after the meal, with the style of music chosen by the couple to suit their preferences. Often in Scotland this takes the form of cÃÆ' Â © ilidh, the dancing night of a Scottish country in couples and groups (sets) to live traditional music. This can be done by specialist bands caÃÆ' Â © ilidh, although many non-specialist bands will also combine some traditional cÃÆ' Â © ilidh dances in their repertoire along with various music of all styles to suit the taste.
  • The first dance is led by the bride, followed by the rest of the bridal party and finally the guests.
  • The cutting ceremony takes place; the bride and groom jointly hold the cake cutter and cut the first pieces of the wedding cake.
  • Prizes not opened at reception; they are either opened earlier and sometimes displayed at the reception, or if guests can not give gifts ahead of time, they are placed at a table at the reception for the bride to take home with them and open later.
  • A sprig of white heather is usually worn as a buttonhole for luck.
  • This is the norm for the groom and many grooms and guests to wear a kilt, although clothing is also worn. Kilt and Highland gowns are often hired for this purpose.

Celtic Handfasting

Handfasting is a wedding ritual in which the hands of the bride and groom are tied together. It is said to be based on ancient Celtic traditions and has inspired the phrase "tie a knot". "Handfasting" is favored by Celtic-based religious practitioners and spiritual traditions, such as Wicca and Druidism.

Finnish Habit

In Finland, a tradition is for bride and groom go door to door with pillowcases, to receive wedding gifts. Often, older and married men accompany him, holding an umbrella or umbrella over his head to protect him. It symbolizes protecting and protecting newlyweds. On the wedding day, the bride can wear a golden crown on her head. At the wedding reception, Dance Mahkota performed, where bridesmaids close the bride's eyes and dance around her. The bride then puts a crown on the head of one of the bridesmaids, who according to tradition will be the next to marry. Traditionally, brides are sitting next to each other at the designated "honor seats" at the wedding reception. The bride holds in her lap a sieve covered by a scarf, where the prize money is placed by the guests. In some marriages, the mother-in-law or godmother will put a porcelain plate on the bride's head, after which the newlyweds will perform the first dance (usually waltz). When the plate fell and broke, the guests collected pieces. The number of pieces determines how many children the couple will have.

The last dance in Finnish marriage is called weaning waltz. All female guests danced with the bride and all male guests danced with the groom, including the children. Every guest only dances with the bride for a short time before continuing. This habit was originally conceived as a test to see how fast the bride would "forget" each other (ie how long they would dance to each other before moving on to guests).

French Customs

In France many couples choose to have two marriages, only civil marriages are legally recognized (because of the concept laÃÆ'¯citÃÆ'Â © ©), they are performed at the town hall by the mayor (or deputy mayor or other councilors acting on his behalf). on his behalf). At least one of the couples must stay in the city where the ceremony takes place. For those who choose to also have a religious marriage, religious ceremonies can only be done after the civil, often on the same day. The town hall often offers more elaborate ceremonies for couples who do not want to get married in a religious way.

If the two ceremonies take place separately, the civilians will usually include close relatives and witnesses. After the civil ceremony is over, the couple will receive livret de famille , a book in which a copy of the marriage certificate is recorded. This is an official document and, if the spouse has children, every child's birth certificate will be recorded in livret de famille as well. A civil ceremony in France is free of charge.

Traditionally, wedding guests gather at the fiancé's home and continue the procession to the church. The procession is led by the bridegroom and his mother, followed by the bride and groom's mother, witnesses, grandparents, brothers and sisters with their spouses. Finally came the bride and her father followed by the bridesmaids (usually family children).

Nowadays, guests are usually gathered in town hall or church and the bride and groom come in together, followed by family and guests.

In some areas, the bridegroom may meet his fiancé at his home on the wedding day and escort him to the chapel where the ceremony is held. When the couple went to the chapel, the children would stretch a long white ribbon on the way the bride would go through as she passed.

In the chapel, the bride sits on two red velvet chairs under a silk canopy called carre . The leaves of the leaves can be scattered on their way as they come out of the chapel. Sometimes small coins are also thrown in order for the children to gather.

At the reception, the couple usually use a toaster cup called Coupe de Mariage . The origin of this toast begins in France, when a small piece of toast falls into the couple's wine to ensure a healthy life. The couple will raise their glasses to "toast", as is common in Western culture today.

In southwestern France it is customary to spit a boar (or a sanglier in French) as a wedding breakfast, a local delicacy.

Some couples choose to serve croquembouche instead of wedding cake. This dessert is a cracked puff pastry pyramid, covered with caramel glamor.

At a more hectic marriage, the tradition involves continuing the celebration until late at night. In many areas of France, the wedding ritual continues until late at night after formal ceremonies and parties. In some areas after reception, those invited to the wedding will gather outside the newlyweds window and throw pots and pans; this is called 'charivari'. They were then invited into the house for another drink for the honor of the couple, after which the couple were finally allowed to be alone for their first night together as husband and wife.

In rural Auvergne-RhÃÆ'Â'ne-Alpes, a post-marriage ritual called la rÃÆ'Â'tie involves a group of unmarried men and women finding the bride who has escaped from the reception, tipping them out of their beds, and serve them the champagne and chocolate mix presented in a potty, which everyone will share and drink. After that, the whole group will enjoy the onion soup. The very heavy and sexual implications and inappropriate appearance of this ritual should symbolize the daily intimacy of married life, which is closely related to the rural nature of the area. L rÃÆ'Â'tie is an alternative ceremony outside of an official ceremony involving young people, and creating humor by making something "tastes good but tastes bad". The commensal quality of the ritual is a symbol for the bridge between youth and adults that couples become married, as well as community involvement in the marriage life of the new couple. Similar rituals are widespread in the French countryside, though perhaps with different foods and containers.

German custom

Most of the good friends who kidnapped the bride. Here, the kidnappers go with him from the bar to the bar, the best man of the bride (or father) or the groom should pay the bill every time. The kidnappers go to a certain place, like a public building, and leave some clues to help find. Exceptions may be related to duties for the groom, such as artistic performance or washing dishes over the next few weeks.

In Austria and Bavaria (preferably in the country of marriage), it is now usual to sing a scorn song before freeing the bride.

In Lower Austria it is custom for masked men and the bride to go to coffee shops or taverns, singing and waiting for the groom to come. In most parts of Austria, this is the best man, sometimes bride or groom (rarely the best man) who pay the price of the kidnappers.

ordinariness This is due to the 'right the first night' should be (German 'Recht der ersten Nacht', French 'droit du seigneur') in the Middle Ages. According to the myth of the clerics and nobles in medieval times have the right to merogol their female subordinates on the night of their marriage. Back then the bride was taken (abducted) from the government followers of their Marriage. Historiography sees this more precisely as literary fiction.

In Bavaria and Western Austria, another tradition is to wake the bride early in the morning by shooting firearms or firecrackers on the wedding day. Friends and neighbors meet at dawn in the bridal house to "greet" on his special day.

Greek Habit

Two or three days before the wedding, the couple held a celebration called Krevati (Greek to sleep) in their new home. In Krevati, the couple's friends and relatives put money and little children in the couple's new bed for prosperity and fertility in their lives. After the habit, they usually throw a party with food and music.

On the wedding day, usually Saturday, but also Friday or Sunday, the groom can not see the bride until the wedding ceremony. The groom usually arrives first in the church and awaits the bride, who usually arrives late. After they exchange bouquets, they have a wedding ceremony, where the best man places the wedding ring and crown on the couple. The couple drink red wine from the same glass (between one and three swallow, depending on tradition). This is not "communion" in the formal religious sense, but about sharing the cup of life. At the end of the wedding ceremony, when the newly married couple leaves the church, guests throw rice and flowers for fertility and simplicity. Special guests, like close friends and family receive sugar-coated almonds (usually an odd number, usually seven but sometimes five) as a gift from a couple. Most Greek ceremonies are Orthodox.

After the ceremony, couples usually have a great wedding party in some places with plenty of food, drinks, music and dancing, usually until the next morning. The wedding begins with the people who are invited to wait for the couple, who usually come after some time. They started dancing and ended up eating a piece of their wedding cake. At some point during the party, they also danced traditional zeibekiko (groom) and ÃÆ'§iftetelli (bride).

In many places in Greece, where they hold more traditional weddings, they usually only play traditional music and eat local food. For example, in the Cyclades region, they eat traditional pasteli (dense honey with sesame) and in Crete they cook rice with goats. In most traditional weddings, they bake whole animals like pigs, goats or sheep like Easter. Before church ceremonies, especially in smaller areas, usually friends and relatives of brides and grooms, accompanied them separately to the church playing traditional musical instruments, according to the region.

A typical Greek wedding will usually have more than 100 invited people (but usually 250-500) who are friends, relatives, grandparents, uncles, aunts, first or second cousins, neighbors and co-workers. It is common to have guests that the couple has never met before. This is because the person to be invited is usually determined by the parent of the couple and not by the couple themselves. Traditionally, the whole village will attend a wedding, so very often parents invite their friends and their children, to the marriage of their own children.

There are many other traditions that are local to their area. One of the famous traditions is pinning money on the bride's clothes. This custom comes from a part of Greece, where it is a substitute for wedding gifts, but has become more widespread recently.

Italian Habit

In parts of Italy, a party, known as Serenade, is thrown out of the bridal house by the groom. Her family and friends came and waited for the bride, consoled herself until she appeared. The groom then sings to his bride to further seduce him. After the song is sung, the party ends.

On the wedding day, the groomsmen bend over backwards to make the groom feel uncomfortable by saying things like "Maybe he forgot where the church is".

It is also traditional for the bride and groom's family to give the bride to the bride and to provide the engagement ring. The bride's family is then responsible for receiving wedding guests in their homes for later receptions.

Green color is very important in Italian weddings. In Italy, the tradition of something blue is replaced with something green. This color brings good luck to married couples. Veil and bridesmaids are also important in Italian weddings. Tradition began in Ancient Rome when the veil was used to conceal the bride from spirits that would spoil her and the bridesmaids had to wear similar clothes so that the demons got more confused.

An ancient Roman custom is that brides throw peanuts at applicants who are rejected as they leave the ceremony.

After the dessert, more dances began, gifts were given, and the guests finally started to leave. In Southern Italy, when the guests leave, they hand over envelopes of money to the bride and groom, who return the gift with a wedding gift or bomboniere, a small appreciation mark.

Polish customs

In Polish marriages, celebrations can continue for two or three days. In the past, the engagement ceremony was organized by the groom as a formal family gathering, where he asked the woman of his choice to marry him. In recent years, this habit has changed and the present involvement is much more personal and intimate. An elegant dinner party afterward is still a good way to let the closest family member know about the couple's decision to marry.

In some areas of Poland, the tradition of inviting private wedding guests is still enforced. Many young couples, accompanied by parents, visit their families and friends to hand over the wedding invitations personally.

According to the old tradition, a groom arrives with his parents at the home of a bride before the wedding ceremony. At that time, both parents and in-laws gave young couples their blessings. The couple entered the church together and walked to the altar followed by two witnesses and parents. In Poland, it is not uncommon for a bride to walk down the aisle or have bridesmaids and groomsmen in a marriage. The couple is assisted by two witnesses, a man (usually a male) and a woman (usually a bridegroom) who is a close family member or friend.

Polish brides traditionally wore white gowns and veils. The groom, on the other hand, usually wears a fitting suit with a bow tie and a boutonniÃÆ'¨re that matches the bridal bouquet. During the ceremony, the wedding ring is exchanged and both husband and wife wear it in their right hand. Right after the ceremony, the closest family and all the guests form a line in front of the church to congratulate the newlyweds and wish them love and happiness. As soon as the married couple leaves the church they bathe with rice for luck or guests drop a coin on their feet for their take. This is done to ensure a good future and prosperous for newlyweds.

After all the guest bath couples with kisses, hugs and flowers everyone headed to the reception. It is a custom in Poland to prepare a "passing gate" on the way to a reception for the newlyweds who, in order to graduate, must provide "gatekeepers" of some vodka. This is a misinterpretation of previous traditions, where the "passing gate" is built if the bride is an orphan and the money collected by the "gatekeeper" of the guests is left to the bride as her dowry (being an orphan who usually implies poverty).

Married couples were greeted at the reception by parents with bread and salt. Bread symbolizes prosperity, salt means life difficulties, parents hope the young couple never starved and learn how to deal with daily hardships together. The wedding takes place (and the bride and groom remains) until the last guest leaves, usually until morning.

In Poland, movements such as the Human Liberties Crusade or Wedding of the Weddings promote non-alcoholic marriage celebrations.

Romanian custom

L? Utari is a Romanian musician who performs traditional songs. Music from l? Utari establishes a complicated Romanian marriage structure. L? Utari also serves as a guide through wedding rituals and moderate any conflicts that may arise during a long and alcoholic party. Over a period of nearly 48 hours, this can be very physically heavy.

Following adat is almost certainly dating back at least to the Middle Ages, most people spend the cost of this wedding ceremony on an extended banquet for their friends and family during the days immediately after the wedding.

The marriage begins at the Town Hall where the couple married in the presence of their closest friends and relatives. After that, they go to the house where L bride? Utari came and sang songs like "He-" I mireas? Ziua bun? " (Say goodbye, bride) while the bride, groom and couple's parents take part in the symbolic preparation for the wedding (the best man and the best waitress put flowers on their chest, arrange the groom's tie and shave it and put the bridal veil, all in front of the mirror large decorated with pieces of hijab and white flowers, a mirror separating the bride from the groom). They then went to the church where the religious ceremony was performed. Their cover goes to the restaurant where the banquet begins.

Newlyweds meet guests at the entrance and they serve a glass of champagne while Lautari sings "Mar? De intampinare" (march meeting). After all the guests arrived, the couple broke the ice and started to dance the waltz. Then, the chefs do "Dansul g? Inii" (chicken dance: they dress the grilled chicken and decorate it and they dance with it while the best man negotiates the price of the chicken with them).

Another tradition is the bridal kidnapping. Some friends of the new bride and groom while the groom is not paying attention and bring it elsewhere, usually to the club. The groom is then forced to negotiate the price of the bride and to redeem it, but not until the "villain" shows evidence of having a bride (shoes, necklaces, etc.). Usually, the "thieves" ask for drinks. They then took the bride back to the wedding and as punishment they were forced to dance waltz with the bride appointed.

It is normal to expect the bride "Casa de Piatra" (Stone House) which symbolizes a solid marriage.

Russian Customs

Traditional Russian wedding lasts at least two days and some weddings last for a week. Throughout the celebration there is dancing, singing, long toasts, and food and drink. The best man and honorary minister is called the witness, "svideteli" in Russian. The ceremony and exchange of the ring occurs on the first day of marriage.

Over the years, Russian marriages have adopted many western customs, including bridesmaids and flower girls. During the wedding, every guest can start chanting "Gor'ko" ("bitter") which is usually immediately supported by other guests. In this case the bride must kiss each other and the kiss should last as long as the song continues.

Swedish custom

In a Swedish church wedding, priests generally do not say when the couple can kiss each other, unlike the Anglo-Saxon tradition. Perhaps because the kiss was not traditionally a Swedish wedding habit, but relatively recently associated with marriage.

In a Swedish wedding, the bride usually goes down the aisle together, rather than the bride being escorted by her father.

It is customary in Sweden that instead of guests bringing gifts for brides and brides, they will pay for dinner and drinks to help pay for the wedding expenses. The older tradition is that the bride's parents will give her one gold and one silver coin, which she put on her shoe.

In Sweden, instead of getting two wedding rings, the tradition is to get three. One for engagement, one for marriage, and one at a time when couples have their first child.

Unlike the United States, it is also customary to have a simple wedding party, consisting of one or two brides and one groom. Lastly, at weddings, couples are placed on the head of a U-shaped table rather than a separate head table for the bridal party.

Albanian custom

In traditional Albanian marriages, Muslim bridal attire is characterized by grace and transparency, in which Catholics can see colorfully. Catholic wedding dress is characterized by beautiful effects and harmony.

There are two types of Muslim wedding dresses. One of them works on "shajak" (a large piece of wool) and with a flower motif works with black cotton "gajtan", sometimes mixed with green. Others work in the same material but in red. Different from the first here the motive is enriched in full color. This dress has a working belt with gold necklaces and red wheat, rose, orange creates all together a warm surface. Here the motive is very small.

The costume gallery, riches of color, this sentiment is a great experience for many years from a population like Albania, not only because of its ability to preserve a living tradition, inheriting it from generation to generation, but also to preserving high technique of elaboration or high artistic level.

The Catholic wedding dress from ShkodÃÆ''r stumbles from a transparent, shiny, soft white, which spreads throughout the body, and is meant to show serenity and warmth. The concept of this tradition is achieved through white base material and gold thread. This dress is composed by "barnaveke": a kind of trousers that look like a skirt. At the top is worn shirt and on it there is "ugly" (vest).

The ritual songs mention the various elements that contain the "paja" (pronounced paya ) of the girl, which is an item that the parent gives to the daughter to wear, to furnish the house, the gift for her husband and the familiar cousin. Elements are usually made by weaving clothes using looms. The preparation of "paja" for the bride's parents is a pleasure which also means fulfilling the obligation to the girl. It is also an expression of parental love, but connected to family economic conditions.

"Dhunti" in Shkodra means the gifts prepared by the bride for the bride during the engagement, especially the clothes, jewelry, ornaments and gold tricks, sent to her a few days before the wedding. In addition to being received by his father's family, the bride takes many gifts from the groom and his family. "Dhuntia", which has a great monetary value, is carefully prepared by the boy's family, because in some ways it manifests the respect and love for the young bride, to whom these gifts are made, the love for their son whom he marries at the same time is also a family representation in the economy and aesthetics. In "dhunti" there is enough clothing and articles to be used at all times, in joy and sorrow, which shows particular attention to the role of women.

South Asian Habit

Bengali wedding custom

The Bengali wedding refers to Muslim and Hindu marriages in Bangladesh and West Bengal. Although Muslim and Hindu weddings have their distinctive religious rituals, there are many common cultural rituals in interfaith marriages among Bengali people.

Indian wedding customs

Indian marriages last from five minutes to several days, depending on region, religion, and many other factors. Due to the diversity of Indian culture, the style of marriage, ceremonies and rituals can vary greatly among different states, territories, religions and castes. In certain areas, it is quite common that during traditional wedding days, there will be a ceremonial tilak (where the groom is anointed on his forehead), a ceremony to decorate the bridal hand and foot with a girlfriend. (Called mehendi ) accompanied by Ladies' Sangeet (music and dance) , and many other pre-marriage ceremonies. Another important ceremony followed in certain areas is the "Haldi" program where brides and grooms are anointed with turmeric paste. All the close relatives made sure that they had anointed the couple with turmeric. In certain areas, on the exact wedding day, the Bridegroom, her friends and relatives came singing and dancing to the wedding in a procession called baraat, and then ritual religious events take place to celebrate marriage, according to the couple's religion. While the groom can wear traditional Sherwani or dhoti or Western suits, or some other local costume, his face, in certain areas, is usually veiled with a mini flower curtain called > sehra . In certain areas, the bride (Hindu or Muslim) always wore red clothing, never white because the white symbolized the widow in Indian culture. In the southern and eastern states the bride usually wears Sari, but in the northern and central states the preferred outfit is red skirts and red shirts named after lehenga . After the wedding ceremony, the bride departs with her husband. This is a very sad event for the bride's relatives because she traditionally should permanently "sever a relationship" with her blood relation to join her husband's family. Among Christians in the state of Kerala, the bridegroom departs with the bride's family. Marriage can be followed by "reception" by the groom's parents in the groom's place. While gifts and money for couples are usually given, the traditional dowry of the bride's parents to a couple is now officially banned by law.

Pakistan wedding habits

Pakistani weddings usually consist of four ceremonies on four separate days. This may consist of 3 days if the first function called "Mehndi" is done in a combined way by both the bride and groom's family.

The first function is Mehndi where families gather and celebrate the forthcoming wedding function. On this day, it is usually used in green, yellow, orange, or other vibrant colors. The bride and groom get their hands painted with girlfriends, and the songs and dances last all night. The next day was a "baraat" organized by the bride's family. The show is usually held in the reception hall, and the groom comes with his family and friends; a big party was given.

Chinese Chinese wedding custom

Traditional Chinese marriage is a ceremonial ritual in Chinese society involving marriages formed by arrangements among families. In traditional Chinese culture, romantic love is allowed, and monogamy is the norm for most ordinary citizens. A group of musicians with gongs and double reed instruments accompany the bridal march to the groom's house. Similar music is also played at weddings. Depending on the region of origin of the bride, Chinese weddings will have different traditions such as Tea Ceremony or wedding use. Also, in modern times, Chinese couples will often go to photo studios to take "glamorous pictures," posing in some dresses and various backgrounds.

Most regional Chinese wedding rituals follow the main Chinese wedding tradition, though some special rituals for people in the southern Chinese region. In most southern Chinese weddings, the price of the bride is based on the economic status of the groom. The idea of ​​"selling girls" or brides is not a frequently used expression. Therefore, the price of the bride does not tend to be too demanding. Most of the time, the price of the bride in the form of gold jewelry, fine cloth, money, or even roasted pork, which symbolizes that the bride is a virgin. Wedding gifts are given by elderly couples or older couples of newlyweds, while tea is served by younger family members.

Japanese wedding marriage

Japanese customs fall into two categories: traditional Shinto ceremonies, and modern Western-style ceremonies. In both cases, couples must first legally marry by filing a marriage at their local government office, and official documentation should be made for the ceremony to be held.

Traditional custom

Before marriage there are two types of couples that might occur with a couple: (1) miai , or matchmaking and (2) ren ai , or a love match. The Japanese bride candidate can be painted pure white from the tips of the head to the toes, seen to state her girl status to the gods. Two headgear options exist. One, watab? Shi , is a white lid; the other, called tsunokakushi , serves to hide the jealous 'jealous' of the bride. 'It also symbolizes the bride's intentions to be a gentle and devout wife.

The traditional Japanese wedding habit (shinzen shiki) involves an elaborate ceremony held at Shinto temple. Marriage in Japan is getting more luxurious with all the detailed details being thought of. However, in some cases, the younger generation chooses to abandon formal means by having a "host party" for marriage. In this situation, the guests include mainly from partner friends who pay attendance fees.

Western-style habits

In recent years, "Marriage of Western Style" (influenced by Christian marriage) has become the choice of most couples in Japan. An industry has sprung up, dedicated to providing couples with model ceremonies after church rituals. Western-style marriage is commonly held in chapels, either in simple or elaborate ceremonies, often in special wedding chapels inside the hotel.

Before the ceremony, there are exercises. Often during this exercise, the bride's mother lowers the veil for her daughter, indicating the last act she can do for her daughter, before "giving her away". The father of the bride, as in Western ceremonies, invites the bride down the hall to her room waiting for the man.

After the exercise comes the procession. The celebrant of the wedding will often wear a wedding cross, or cana, a cross with two married rings attached to each other, symbolizing the couple's commitment to sharing life together in the bonds of a sacred marriage. The wedding celebration gave a brief welcome and introductory speech before announcing the entrance of the bride. The procession ends with the groom bowing to the bride's father. The father bowed in retaliation.

The service then begins. This service is provided in Japanese, English or quite often, a mixture of both. It follows a Protestant ceremony, relaxed and not too religious. Usually parts of 1 Corinthians 13 are read from the Bible. After reading, there are prayers and short messages, explaining the sanctity of marriage vows ( seiyaku ). The groom shares an oath and exchanges rings. Registration of the chapel was signed and the new couple announced. This is often followed by a traditional wedding kiss. The worship can end with other hymns and singing songs.

With two kinds of ceremonies, Shinto and Western, available it is tied for two to be combined into what is called contemporary Japanese wedding. Contemporary Japanese wedding is celebrated in many ways. At the beginning of the wedding day, the participants have to get ready in the beauty parlor of the living room. The beauty shop's responsibilities are for the bride, groom, and other participants in formal Japanese attire. Dressing up the bride is an important task because the bride will be transformed into several outfits throughout her wedding day. Due to the complexity of the design, the wedding dress can be difficult and time consuming and for this reason the bride and groom should be the first to arrive two hours before the wedding ceremony. The bride's outfit consists of a luxurious kimono, heavy make-up, wigs and head coverings. One hour before the wedding ceremony, guests and grooms should start arriving.

When everyone is wearing their formal attire, the bride and groom must part with each other and meet their close relatives in the waiting room. Relatives present will appear in family photos and will also attend religious ceremonies. During this meeting, kaizoe (assistant) will tell the participants what will happen and what they should do during the day because they are not familiar with the ceremony.

When all is understood, relatives and participants are taken to the photo studio where professional photographs should be taken. Taking photos of the bride, groom, and their family is considered a central part of the wedding day. Photos of their spouses and families are designed to represent the future of the prospective couple together.

After a long photo session, the bride, the groom, and others were taken to the Shinto shrine. Currently, Shinto shrine may be located inside a hotel where all activities will take place. A Shinto priest leads the ceremony. In the ceremony, the bride and groom are purified. However, the ceremonial ceremony takes place when the bride and groom exchanged the sake wedding cup also known as san-san-ku-do . In addition to Western traditions, exchanges of wedding rings and promises also occur. Guests who are not attending a religious ceremony can see the ceremony on the video screen located in the lobby.

Like a Western-style tradition, the reception takes place right after the wedding ceremony. The reception guests include family members, friends, and co-workers. Due to the efforts of the wedding industry to maximize space and time, the reception will last exactly two hours. Reception does not include random activities, but follows a strict sequence of events. The reception includes a dramatic entrance by the bride and groom with special effects, speeches, and other performances.

At this point the Master of Ceremony will congratulate the newlyweds and their families. He will then introduce the nakodo , which will start the opening speech and more speeches will follow. Being that the highly structured acceptance of the speakers will have the idea of ​​being formal and concise in mind. With all the speeches finished, the bride and groom will perform a Western-style tradition, which includes the following: (1) the cutting ceremony of the cake and (2) the first dance of the newlyweds as husband and wife.

The next part of the reception is toast, or kanpai , which simplifies the atmosphere of the reception where guests can start relaxing, eating and drinking. What follows a toast is a short congratulatory speech made by relatives, friends, and co-workers. During this time, the bride has turned into her first costume and continues throughout the reception. However, the groom will also have the opportunity to change his costume, which is a Western tuxedo. At the end of the night, the two brides and grooms have changed from their traditional Japanese outfits to their Western-style outfits.

After the change of their latest costume, the newlyweds will do the candle service. Both will have long and unlit candles, which will be lit from the table where their parents sit. Next, the couple will walk around the room in a circle and light a candle placed on their guest table. After all the candles are lit, the newlyweds will return to their table where they will light what is called the Warning Candle.

By the time the candlelight service is done, the two-hour restriction will end soon. Few minutes remaining include short speeches, songs, dances, etc. As the reception ends, the flower presentation ceremony will take place, where the newlyweds will present a gift of flowers to their parents to show appreciation for their parents raising them to their people today. At this point, the reception has ended with a quick flash and a breakup.
