Indian Wedding



Had the pleasure of seeing an Indian wedding today. So beautiful and festive. I loved the way the groom's family danced in front of him as he entered the building on a beautiful, decorated white horse.

There were these men holding kerosene lamps on their heads that were used to fuel about six light bulbs. Very interesting, a bit scary because they were begging for money with these lamps on their heads!

Also notable was that the groom's face was completely covered in beads and pearls...usually it's the bride that is covered. Nice having the tables turned.
