1) It has always been a tradition to say "boy and girl are getting married". But these days, in most of the marriages i attend, i am forced to say " uncle aunty ki shaadi hai !!" Cmmon people, why is everyone postponing their marriages to their 30s ?
2) I just love this banquet hall marriages. The usually have 2 or 3 halls, where they can host different functions. So if the food is not good in one of the halls, you are always welcome to check out the other hall :D . The marriage i went yesterday was only serving vegetarian food!! No worries - the wedding on the first floor hall had non-veg food. Simple! And yeah, do not forget to say Namaste to some random oldie uncle and aunties!3) Why cant oldies live their life in peace? Why do they have to worry about if the marriage is love marriage or arranged! I am talking about the random relatives who only meet each other in marriages and they forget each other during the rest of the year .. and sometime for years! But whenever they meet, they certainly have to bitch about - Who selected the girl? Were not there any better girls? and some more blah blah! Dude! No one bothers about your opinion, so why worry?
4) Firangi people have certainly got bored of " Hungry India, Poor India" . Almost at every wedding, there are some firangi friends, who are ready with their SLR cameras to capture every moment to the Great Indian Wedding Tamasha. Seriously they are the only ones who enjoy each moment to the core without worrying about anything!
5) Lastly and sadly, where are all the good looking girls? Punjabi marriages are famous for being the prefect hangout place to ogle at hundreds of Katto girls, but sadly in the past year or so, the number of good looking girls have decreased at an exponential rate in such weddings!! Is this the end of glamor in punjabi marriages?

lol... no time these days for anyone(read girls) bt for u!! :D :D
U really had ur meal at other's function?? :-o
You certainly have done some time series analysis here.
I have also noticed some changes in the weddings nowadays, more to do with the extravagant arrangements and also the non-ghori baraats. Sometimes I have seen the 'dolis' with giggling brides and also the traditional feras done in imaginative and innovative ways. All for the best :)
@soumya - Yess!!
So are all the good looking punjabi girls married and in proper gruhasta ashram eh ? ;)
errr aren't you almost 30 ? :P
mujhe veg weddings achhe nahi lagte :/ isliye 2-3 hall wala idea achha hai :D
@Amrita - i think so :((
@truthful - yeah, its a really cool idea :D
i agree with ur first observation....y wait till 30's to get married....may be ppl are too much focussed on their careers.
