Getting Married
In cultures around the world, important events in people’s lives are marked with special customs and ceremonies. They help people to celebrate occasions, such as the birth of a baby, a wedding, or remembering a person who has died. They are also a way to guide people from one stage of their lives to the next. This book looks at how people from different cultures and religions celebrate weddings.
All over the world, weddings are happy occasions that the bride and groom often want to share with their friends and family. There are usually special clothes to wear and special foods to eat, including many different types of wedding cakes. In some cultures, people exchange rings or other jewelry. There are also many customs for finding a partner.
