A
Christian wedding usually, conducted in a Church is a simple
ceremony involving the exchange of wedding bands and marriage
vows by the bridal couple. A Christian bride traditionally wears
a white gown, with the face covered in a white veil, clutching
on to a bunch of white flowers, while the groom is dressed in
a conservative suit.
The wedding
rituals are conducted along
with the holy mass. The priest commences the procession of reading
psalms from the Holy Bible. He then renders a sermon called Homily,
which dwells on the sacredness of the wedlock and emphasizes on
the sanctity of marriage. After the Homily, the bride and the
groom hold each other's right hand and make the solemn promise
of lifelong loyalty. This is followed by Blessing and the exchange
of the wedding rings. The priest then pronounces them man &
wife, with the couple kissing each other.
After the church wedding is over, the couples
walk down the aisle, with the guests throwing confetti at them.
A large, lively reception awaits the newly-weds and the guests
and pre-chosen venue.
