I recently got married so now I am writing this article. I have a perfect wedding and a wonderful man, I feel great!
The theme of our wedding was Telugu and Southern Indian. The beginning of our wedding started by praying to Lord Vinayaka. We asked that there be no problems with our marriage. I bought a traditional wedding dress the magnificent saree made from Kanchi silk. In Indian weddings it is good luck if the bride wears a red or yellow but bad luck if she wears black.
Many women starve themselves in order to fit into a smaller size wedding dress. Women who go on strict diets to loose weight for a wedding end up tired and looking bad at the event. This is a horrible practice that should be abolished due to its many adverse effects on the brides health which most people, including the bride, tend to ignore during a pre-wedding ceremony. It just makes sense to keep your normal diet before the wedding. Another piece of advise is to drink plenty of water and fruit juices because you won’t have time during the wedding day. When a friend of mine got married she didn’t follow this advise and she looked so bad that I hardly recognized her! It is such a shame that her wedding photos will reveal a gaunt looking one on a most beautiful day of joy. It’s important to look like yourself at your wedding; have a test run of your makeup before the wedding day to make sure you like it. It’s your wedding so you should do it your way!
The food you serve at the wedding very important. In a traditional wedding there can be up to 25 different dishes! Traditional wedding dinners are typically all vegetarian dishes. It is considered good luck to serve sweet desserts at weddings. There are lots of traditional sweet Indian desserts to serve. The pre-wedding festivities are extensive and can last for days. A popular custom is to paint the bride’s hands with Henna before the wedding. It is also traditional for both families to celebrate with singing and dancing before the wedding. Traditional Indian weddings are huge events involving hundreds of guests and festivities.
A traditional Indian wedding can last anywhere from a few days to a week. Events before the marriage are usually paid by the bride’s family and can cost up to a few hundred thousand dollars. You should check out examples of a traditional Indian wedding online.
