These day’s marriages, weddings and parties are totally messy as people waste a lot of money in that, mostly in India. It’s like whatever you wish to have, you will find that in weddings , marriages and parties.
Snacks, breakfast and then lunch. I went to a wedding today and I felt this thing, people who attend wedding, waste a lot of food. This food and money can be used properly in other productive purposes. So as I mentioned, today i went to attend a wedding which is our neighbours pretty elder daughters. It was bit far about 45 Minutes drive from our place, me and my elder brother went their. Had a great time. Food was awesome and tasty. I didn’t ate much, just had my soft drink and had some snacks. And then enjoyed the dance function in the wedding and even did not had lunch, and came back home. Attending marriages is a bit hectic for me and I lose my energy a little. Now back home and relaxing and enjoying some lb.
These days marriages are just a show off thing and people spend billions and millions of money just for few hours. In India we used to have many pre and post functions during marriage and one very important one is called the Bangle Ceremony, in which the proposed bride is wore bangles by her friends and other female family members and even after that they have small lunch or dinner depending upon the time of ceremony. We can say, almost 7 Days from marriage, the wedding house will be busy in preparation’s and before the wedding day or night, shagun ceremony is celebrated and night before marriage is reserved for dance party or more popularly known here as DJ party where in friends, relatives and family members dance to the beats of Punjabi songs and does not let us sleep lol.
These things looks like mandatory for Indian or I should say Punjabi wedding.

Actually I think it's the same in many parts of the world. Weddings are for showing off and I doubt with all the stress preparing that the bride and groom are actually very happy that day. They have to care for all the guests and make sure the party is going well. I want to have a small wedding without all the fuss.
Marriage is a joyous ceremony. But in America, the ceremony is over in about a half an hour. As for the food? It all depends on how much money people want to spend. Some can prepare elaborate dinners while others serve finger foods and sandwiches. The wedding reception may last for a few hours. But never for a week! Some couples bypass all that hoopla and elope!
My son went to his friend's wedding in Jordan. He said the celebrations lasted for a week! At the end of the week, the couple were officially announced as husband and wife. I asked him WHY? He said the families need to know if they can get along with each other.
I'm thinking: “Screw that! I'm not marrying the whole family! If we can't get along, my husband and I just move and live somewhere else; or stay where we are and mind our own business!”
LOL. When you said “messy” I didn't think you were talking about food. I thought you were talking about nosy folks interfering in a couple's relationship!!
Weddings were never meant to be for “showing off”. They were meant to unite a man and a woman in holy matrimony and to continue the process of having a happy family life. They were meant to join a couple in the sight of God and witnesses. “Therefore shalt a man leave his father and mother and cling to his wife; and the two shall become one.” That's what God intended. All that culture and tradition stuff is just mankind “adding on”. It can be fun. In fact, in America, some people crash wedding parties just so they can get some free food! The wedding reception is usually a family celebrating the continuation of their family line. But it's not necessary for a happy marriage. Thank goodness! :)
