No, Peek A Boo!

Only the bride and groom know the excitement of seeing each other on their wedding day. It’s so thrilling and exciting to see that beautiful face in their best attire, that they keep on trying to get a peek at their partners, but back then it was a big no for the couple to see each other on the day of the wedding.

The Reception Attendance

We all dislike the tiring process of greeting annoying relatives and if we ask the couple the toughest part of the wedding, it would probably be greeting relatives at reception. Well to add a cherry on the cake, we discovered a new superstition that says that the bridegroom should never leave the reception until all the relatives are gone. Hearing this, we’re tired already.
