A foreigner’s view of Indian weddings

This is a first hand account of what they feel attending Indian weddings:

  1. "My, my, do you always have so many guests to the wedding!"
  2. "Why do you have so many lamps? What do they signify?"
  3. "And why are going round in circles onstage?"
  4. "And does the bride wear all that gold later too?"
  5. "Why does the couple look so glum? They are not smiling much."
  6. "What? Can’t listen with music…"( nadaswaram in background)
  7. "Don’t you guys dance. Your films show so much dance and song."
  8. "No thank You. I can eat with my fingers"( on being offered a spoon)
  9. Seeing everyone leaving after feast, "Is that all?!"
  10. Snapping away the pics of dining hall after feast,"I must show everything folks back home"

I request each of you to write something about each:D
