A traditional Indian wedding is a feast for the eyes. All guests
and especially the bride are festive and colourful dressed with clothes
from finest silk. The hands and feet of the bride by tradition are decorated
with precious stones or elaborate paintings.
The wedding ceremony lasts for about one and half day. It is mainly
a religious ceremony performed in the presence of many relatives and friends
from both sides. Generally all expenses of wedding are to be borne by the
girl's side. The pictures were taken in a so-called wedding hall. We thank
our Indian friends and the young couple who let us have them. May God bless
them. more about an Indian wedding...
