Hindu wedding

[lutonlagerlout]

I have been invited by a long standing client to his son's wedding in august
we have accepted but having never been to a hindu wedding before, I wonder are there any protocols that I should be aware of
dad has probably given us 250k of work in the last 15 years so I need to make it right

any tips gratefully accepted!

What to Wear at Indian Weddings


Dos and Don'ts at an Indian Wedding

[London Stone Paving]

I've been to quite a few over the years. They are very long. We made the mistake of getting to one on time. Other people just appeared throughout the day. Also people just talked throughout the service which seemed very rude but nobody batted an eyelid.

Doggy bag for all the amazing curry too

If in doubt I would just as your client, don't want to make a fool of yourself and or insult anyone.

Been to a few Sikh ones. They're just the same as normal really, some traditional bits, but everyone's there to have a laugh ,so relax, you'll be fine.

did the wedding today and it was fantastic

no alcohol
no meat
no smoking

everybody had a great time
lot of elephant stuff going on
500 people and 5 europeans

have to say first cup of tea in my life that had about 10 sugars in it and curry flavour

but great to see how different cultures work

good luck to the happy couple

Masala tea is the best!

[mickg]

I have experienced the very sweet tea in the past but never with curry flavour

glad you had a good time, I have been invited to parties but never a wedding but always enjoyed the food

[dig dug dan]

if you invited them to your wedding, would they go along with your traditions??
i doubt it.
nuff said

when in rome .....

I wouldn't expect anyone you included to be forced to drink Dan

same with Meat etc

what struck me was that everyone had a great time without the drink or meat

of course I did slip down the pub later for a livener

Not knocking you tony, fair play for taking part, just annoys me when we have to play by their rules and they dont play by ours
