Marriages are made in Heaven...

Marriages are made in heaven then why do we celebrate it here?

One wedding, two people on stage, 100s at venue and chaos whole night. Mama maami and chahcha chahchi all want their photos to be done with bride-groom, on urgent basis because they want to relish food ASAP.

The best part of any wedding is dance/songs played. But this wedding had special attraction.

One day before:

One hall room was packed with some dozen relatives and all of them lying on the mattresses on the floor& chit chatting. Later the small groups divided themself in two big groups (of maternal and paternal cousins of the bride) and competing in antakshri. Comments, jokes and fun was all part of the game. Everyone danced on "Vaari Varsi Khatan Gayasi..." A typical punjabi folk thing which is fun filled and compels every relation to dance or enact.

The D Day:

Any typical punjabi wedding wud consist of different food stalls, one stage for bride groom, Guys/ Men in Sherwani and ladies in all latest trends with layers of make up on their face.

Snapshots: What will you find there

• No matter what the weather is like, you would not find a single lady with sweater/shawl even at freezing temp. Well you can call them "HOT" that ways.
• Distant cousins and relatives and the pet dialogue of forgotton aunty would be " Kitni badi ho gayi hai, pehchaana mujhe? jab tu itni si thi na tab main tujhe gaudh main khilaya karti thi". Next time tell them - Obv yaar chhoti thi tabhi khilate the..ab khila kar dikhao gaudh main tab maano ;)
• One aunt with some old grudge, taunting back coz she forgot to make a particular comment in the last marriage.
• Few uncles, just at the bar counters.
• A group observing dresses worn by others and finally critisizing...
• Bride smiling(read as: forced to smile) everytime, when the light is thrown on her face.
• Zoom the camera and one dark corner u will find a lady adjusting saree/hair style of another lady.
• Guys staring at girls. (By Default)
• One dance floor occupied by people doing bhangra steps on shakira's "Hips dont lie"
• A girl standing in the crowd and observing all this.

Attend one wedding and it seems to leave prints for lifetime. Overall this marriage was fun and better than any wedding i have attended so far.
