The typical Nigerian wedding involves the bride changing at least three times. What you see here is the typical "iro" and "buba" clothing, which can be declined in different colors and is combined with the "gele", the traditional turban.
2. The bride in India
Wedding celebrations in India usually go on for three days. Along with the traditional dress, the bride's hands and feet are decorated with "mehndi", temporary henna tattoos.
3. The bride in Mongolia
The day before the wedding, the groom goes to the bride's house to bring gifts to her father. Traditionally, animals were given as gifts, and above all a vase of glue, to symbolize the strong bond between groom and bride, indissoluble. As for dress and jewelry, the bride is often adorned with a headdress decorated with pearls or other precious materials.
4. The bride in China
The Chinese bride, for her dress, must try to wear red. It is the color symbol of love and prosperity, and should be worn not only on the dress, but also on jewelry and accessories. The important thing is to avoid black, blue, and gray, symbols of pain.
5. The bride in Norway
The traditional dress of the Norwegian bride even includes a crown! The queen of the day should in fact wear a tiara that costs more than everything else. But we doubt that anyone still sticks to the tradition, in the very advanced Norway ...
6. The bride in Tibet
The Tibetan bride wears a dress and hair ornaments that are sent to her by the groom and his family, wrapped in silk as the most precious gift.
7. The bride in Indonesia
The Indonesian bride, dressed in precious colored fabrics and with a golden headdress, is escorted on a traditional sedan chair through the streets of her village to the place where the ceremony will take place.
8. The bride in Eritrea
The bride in Eritrea wears the traditional dress with a veil. She waits in her house for the groom, who arrives with his witnesses to take her with him to the place where the ceremony will be celebrated. Small curiosity: the groom is expected to dance at the bride's house, as soon as he arrives, joining the bride's guests who welcome him with their songs.
9. The Zulu bride
The Zulu ethnic community, originally from South Africa, requires the bride and groom to wear matching colors, to show everyone how connected they are. The most important role in the bride's attire is beaded jewelry.
10. The bride in Ghana
The Ghanaian bride, if she wants to stick to tradition, wears the Kente, a brightly colored fabric that creates geometries and pattern references. The precious cloth was used in antiquity only by kings and queens.
