objected to by grandmothers and random aunties with dyed hair. Navel showing and skimpy blouse donning, however, are still considered a sin. The bride and groom’s coolness quotient is often judged by the number of foreigner friends who attend the wedding. Culture has indeed undergone a change and there has begun a strange adulteration of traditions. Yet, sometimes, certain things boil down to an individual’s choice. It could be all about having a loud pompous celebration to unite with their soul mate or doing just the same in a quiet, happy ritual. Ultimately, it’s just a question of doing what is real fun and what gives you genuine happiness!
