Wedding!

The weekend saw me attending my cousin's wedding..sporting a formal attire in this heat is not a very comfortable thing but such is the constraints a society imposes on you.. it was an inter caste marriage and the good thing about it was the difference in the rituals performed. I have been to many weddings but never have i seen rituals where the groom has to run from the mantap and some body catches him and brings him back only for the bride to run and somebody again has to catch her and bring her back!!! I cudn t help but wonder what wud happen if one of them was a very good runner :p ... to make matters more interesting there was even a mini skit which had to be performed by the groom... everyone had fun but the poor groom was a li'l embarrassed... it was entertaining alright!! and as usual got to meet sooo many ppl,some after a very long time. some one at the wedding was saying, "given everyone's busy schedules these days, weddings and funerals are the only ocassions where all us relatives get together" blunt as it is I couldn't help but agree.
