indian wedding


Indian weddings are beautiful. The colors, food, ceremonies, dancing, a true celebration! There are interesting little rituals I think are so cute, the mother in law trying to grab the groom's nose, sister stealing shoes of the groom (names?)...and the *baraat* (marching band, dancing in the street and a groom mounted on a white horse) makes you smile!

Just a minor, nitpicky point. The procession behind a horsebacked groom is usually spelled and pronounced 'baraat'. 'Bharat' is the spelling used for the Indian name for India. Great picture, as always ! Cheers.
