Weddings take different turns depending on which community celebrates them. There is one community needs a mention and that is the Punjabis.
Punjabis love doing everything in a big way, be it their Bangra dance, their food, the jewellery the women wear and works.
What draws everyone’s attention is the manner in which they celebrate weddings. The bride is decked up with finery even the queens cannot afford specially the jewellery they wear, the food they serve I attended one such wedding and I thought I would have to wear skates to cover those buffet tables.
And did you know quite a few take loans to compete with the Joneses?

I had a modest wedding. She would never be indebted for a wedding.
Taking loans for celebrations and then repenting is what I see here
I’ve only seen Indian weddings on movies. I would never borrow for such an event. I’m just going to invite a few guests to meet the finances I have.
Many borrow money for such events and then later regret.
These are people who do not think about the consequences in the future.
As expensive and competitive weddings are today, many have lost the purpose of wedding. While celebration is okay, the witnessing is the most important one. This has made many people to elope – come we stay.
Eloping seems the cheapest way to getting married (lol)
Yes. The government here considers those who have lived together for more than 3 months has already married people
