[OFF TOPIC] Wedding Traditions of your Nation

[DaniSRB 899]

I though it would be interesting to compare wedding traditions of our nations. How much of traditional customs is kept and what disappeared? Feel free to join discussion

I think it's pretty straightforward here: those who want to get married in a church do, those who don't want that don't, and the party around it is done in the way the couple wants

Of course  

 

No reason for a happy day like this to be done in a way the couple doesn't want, they're the only two people it actually is about

Here we still follow traditions, although some gets lost with time

however i like traditional weddings :D

 

Food is different at each wedding or there are some things that are usually common?

As far as I know, there's no specific thing to eat at weddings. I mean, there's probably generally a cake but that's just because people like cakes  

 

As for myself, most likely I'm gonna get married in a church , assuming my current girlfriend ends up being my wife, but that's just because for her that's important and I don't care so I'm fine with whatever she wants

A treaty would be needed to describe a wedding here in South Italy...

I'm not sure if that's the normal situation here or not, but if our guests want to bring cakes (or anything tasty really), feel very welcome to do so  

 

About going to the church or wherever people get married: no idea, I think it depends on the people. Some probably want something old-fashioned because they like it, others prefer something newer

@bestmen has a role in traditional Serbian weddings? I must say I did not expect that.
