Friends' Wedding
I went to a wedding this weekend. Two of our friends were marrying, finally! It was a very cozy, very nice wedding, and this first Muslim wedding I have seen. Hubby says there a whole lot more things involved not just with Muslim weddings but with Bangla Muslim weddings. The groom is Bangladeshi and the bride Greek. It was quite nice.
She looked gorgeous with her long white dress and cute little veil. She is a beautiful, tall slim lady with an everlasting smile. He looked charming wearing a very simple but nice punjabi, showing the humility that grooms should show. A very pretty couple. Their parents were not able to attend, but they were on speaker phone all throughout the ceremony. As I understand, each’s parents are waiting for them to go to their respective countries so that they can re-do ceremonies over there with all the relatives. Woowies. That will be fun. ^_^
After we left the wedding I mentioned to Hubby the fact that she was wearing white. Muslim generally marry in red or reddish tones. “See” I told him, “she converted to Islam and accepts the beliefs and most customs... but a woman that grew up dreaming of a white wedding will always at least keep the white dress. ^_^ You can’t change that!”
We women will compromise in a lot of things... except the dress. Hehehe

Hey, great blog here! I'm definitely going to bookmark you!
I have a Google Adsense site. It pretty much covers Google Adsense related stuff. (And I've got lots of great new programs!)
Have a look sometime!
^_^ White weddings!!!!
*day dreams*
I think the best part of the weddings is right after the exchange of rings, once the deal is sealed.
hm... and the shoes. White wedding shoes are great.

Three weddings in one. How bout that? Wonder if you get discounts if you buy them in bulk?
Bulk weddings. Hey, that wouldn't be a bad thing to offer. :D
you get them at a discount of 75% of the price, but you have to buy them in a set of 3. Costco style wedding ceremonies ^_^
