Weddings- Get Together In Ways Of Marriage

A wedding is an occasion where a couple gets united in ways of marriage. However, the traditions and customs vary greatly depending on the religion, culture, society, etc. During a wedding ceremony, the rituals and practices depend on which religion the couple follows, their culture, etc. In some wedding ceremonies, the groom and the bride choose to dress in traditional attire according to their customs, while other couples choose to follow the western style of dressing in white. 

Since immemorial times, exchanging wedding rings have been a key part of marriage. In most marriage ceremonies, there is a ritual called send-off, which means the exit of the bride and the groom. However, this ritual varies from country to country. In Ethiopia, this ritual takes place when the newly married couple bows and kisses the knees of the elderly. In contrast, in some other countries like India and Malaysia, the newlywed couple throws unfertilized rice, which symbolizes prosperity and fertility.

Wedding ceremonies are often followed by a reception party, speeches, or a couple of dances. Music forms an integral part of weddings. Traditional music adds to the grandeur of any wedding ceremony. Nowadays, modern music and songs are played in wedding ceremonies. Modern-day weddings also include cutting wedding cakes and different customs, making the couple feel special and blessed during the day. With changing times, destination weddings have gained a lot of popularity. A would-be couple may choose to have their wedding in Seychelles. Weddings in Seychelles are celebrated with great pomp and grandeur, and there are various destinations one can choose from to celebrate the big day of your life.
