The wedding excitement

I've observed that the weddings have got a lot to do with the lives of so many families (Yeah, not just the bride, groom and their families). Money is spent lavishly for the great ambience, the food and entertainment to give a wonderful experience to all the invitees. Though the bride's parents take it as their responsibility to treat the guests at their best, every person who attends a wedding has his/her own role to play.

The aunties look around for the young unmarried girls and guys and start pestering them that they are the next in the line to get married. Some of these aunties look for a good match for her son/daughter by promoting them among the crowd of aunties as the most eligible bachelor/bachelorette. The young girls and guys, who are seen in traditional wear at such occasions, look hideously for a good-looking partner in the crowd, they try to keep these aunties away and they want them to stop pestering. The kids have new friends whom they’ve never met before and might never see again, they are all busy playing games and they are happy to be left free. Their Moms are busy showcasing their jewelry n sarees to each other. The old uncles are busy in discussing topics like property, politics, cricket, etc. while the young uncles are busy with their laptops or mobile phones. Despite the presence of a professional photographer, few cousins of the bride/groom show interest in photography. The food lovers can be seen only in the dining hall, eating endlessly and praising the taste of the food. Every person has something or the other to do, everybody is busy. There are very few people who actually pay attention to what rituals are taking place and these are the ones who are very close to the families of bride n groom.

In short, the wedding is special not only for the bride n groom but to everyone present there.

P.S.: It is only an observation. This post has nothing to do with me n my wedding. :)
