Things That happen in an Indian Wedding.
Weddings are always fun. These are usually the things that happen in an Indian wedding. Have fun reading!
And also, do wait for the gifs to load.
Okay leggosss
1. Adjusting sarees/lenghas. LITERALLY EVERYTHING.
I honestly don't get it. My saree has approximately 35 safety pins to make sure it stays in place but does it? NO. The moment I step outta my house, the thing falls apart. And then, you look at the person next to you and say,"HELP ME." The person then goes on full Indian-Tim-Gunn mode and adds another 16 pins but we all know that the whole thing will fall apart in 5 more minutes. My saree needs to stop pretending that its a part of the "saree ke falsa" song. What,you need shahid kapoor to adjust your saree? Poda. Pffft.

| NO |
2. Everthing goes missing.
"Did you see my bangles"
"Where is the car key? I kept it here 5 minutes ago"
"What do you mean the mappilai (groom) is missing?"
Okay fine, the groom rarely goes missing but you get my point.

| WHO. TOOK. MY. CAR KEYS?! |
3. Food
We all know that Indian food is like the best. If you're not eating Indian food, then what are you even eating? We also know that the main part of a wedding is the food.
"O yeah, I just came back from my friend's wedding"
"That's good. How was the food?"
Legit example. not even exaggerating. And we Indians waste no time to go get the food. The priest will be like, "kettimelam kettimelam" and POOF! half of the hall is empty because they all have gone to get food.

4. Loads of crying
A lot of crying happens. The bride cries. The bride's mother cries. The bride's ex-boyfriend cries. HARHAR. But on a serious note, the bride would be the one who usually cries cause the rest of her live will now be under her mother-in-laws command. HARHAR. Okayokay, I'm REALLY serious now. The bride is the one who usually has so many things changing. From her home to her room to her roommate. Everything has changed. SO its okay if she sheds a tear or two.

5. Loads of dancing
Indians we dance like we own the floor. The little Beyonce Devi in us gets awaken when it comes to weddings. Each and every one of us would break such intricate and kutthu moves that next day you're on a wheel chair. But its worth it.
6. Sight seeing
You know what I mean. Wedding is the best time to openly gawk at someone or in simpler words "to sight adikkiran". They might look like they have not bathed for 10 days before the wedding but on the wedding day :
7. Moyi collection aka money collection
There will be a person assigned to be the Moyi Officer who can usually be seen with a large bag to collect the money given by the people who come for the wedding. Kinda like a gift but in the form of money. I know, we Indians are soo cool? Like bruh, here keep this money. Go have a nice honeymoon. haha. But also, being a moyi officer has many downsides. They have to stand awkwardly beside the bride and groom and be all:
8. A huge family reunion
By huge I mean awkward. A huge AWKWARD family reunion. Cause let me be real, you didn't see half of these people for years.
"Hi erm.. Soni..erm.Soniya? No, Sowmiya! Hi,Sowmiya!"
"I'm Kavita actually"
"Oh, yeah yeah. Your sister is Sowmiya right? I remember now"
"I have no sister"
You see, AWKWARD.

9. Gold parade
Half of the people at the wedding be looking like :
10. People commenting on how you look
This happens everywhere not only during Indian weddings. But it is definitely very prominent.
"Your saree is tooo red!"
"Have you put on weight?"
"You have gone so dark!"
 | |
| DON'T. JUST DON'T |
Let people wear whatever they want or look however they want. End of story.
And those are the very few things that happens during an Indian Wedding. I might do a part 2 of this cause too many things happen during weddings and I can't fit errthang into one post.
