Shaadi ka Zamaana!!! (Wedding Season!)

And thus begins wedding season again for this year! This pic was taken at a family friends wedding that I attended this past weekend and I thought that I'd share this pic with everyone. The groom came in on a HORSE, with the baraat led by a guy playing the dhol and his relatives dancing it up. The guy's Punjabi, so its no wonder. But the girl is a HYDRO! See, we're just so awesome that even others realize that about us and get hydro girls hahaha. Anyways, I thought this was really unique because I haven't seen this type of entrance before so it was quite the novelty. I mean I'm sure it happens back in India and Pakistan but I've never seen it done here before. What's next, an elephant?

The whole wedding itself was unique. They had a really nice ice sculpture and the cake was just so different...it had a mini water fountain in it! The best though was the way he proposed to her. The bride is our family friend and so I had seen her in the mall a week before the wedding and so she was saying how he rented a plane and flew a banner over Gage Park that said "Seema Khan will you marry me?" and how people were honking their horns saying "did she say yes?" Wow, what brown guy does that? Haha come on, you people know its true we've never heard of that before! Anyways, now all you guys out there have an idea of what a proposal should be like, so when its your turn, be creative!!! Lol well after you talk to her ammi and dad...but you get the picture.

Finally someone has raised the bar and standards of what is expected of a guy :p That proposal sounds too good to be true...so now all you fellas thinking of simply putting the ring in a drink for the girl to find, think again!

Look you gotta think, it is a punjabi marrying a hydro... why did he fly the plane ??? because the guy was actually going to skydive without a parachute he wanted to end his life her parents put the banner on the back ... why did he roll in on a horse ... he wanted to get used to the smell of hydros this is what he was going to put up with for the rest of his life.

hmmm...is "anonymous" too chicken to say that same thing with their real name in front of a Hydro? ;)Must be the jealousy factor deep rooted within them. Unfortunately we can't all be Hydros...but this guy was lucky enough to be married into a family full of them!
